Leah (leahrosereads) Right now I'm re-listening/re-reading the Joe Ledger series by Jonathan Maberry in preparation for Book 6, Code Zero (March 25). Currently on Assassin's Code (Book 4 of the series). The series' narrator is Ray Porter, and he is magnificent!

Nathan Tullis (nathantullis) | 4 comments Leah, I love that series. Ray Porter is the best in the business, IMO. I'm listening to Words of Radiance right now. After that it will probably be time for Code Zero, which I'm just as excited about that as I was with Words of Radiance.

Possible spoiler regarding Maberry books. Though I don't think it's a huge secret...(view spoiler)

Leah (leahrosereads) Nathan - I'm curious about that too. In the short story Tooth & Nail, (view spoiler)

Anyway, very stoked about Code Zero too. I have both my pre-orders ready to go for March 25. Definitely going to be having an all nighter on that day to finish the book.

Jim Peterson | 23 comments I love audiobooks. I spend about 2 hours in the car everyday, so I'm always listening to something. You can be sure that at least one of the books on my currently reading shelf is an audiobook. I usually borrow them from the library or friends. Othewise I think it's too expensive.

Michiganmermaid Powell | 5 comments I finally finished quicksand ---great
Odd Thomas---not so great

I am now doing Afraid - jack kilborn


At anytime I have 10 books on CD from library!
One of them by Dan Simmons has 20 CD----ugh

Jim Peterson | 23 comments By the way, The Hellbound Heart is read by Clive Barker himself.

I think that when a book can be read out loud and still be beautiful, it speaks volumes for the talent of the writer.

Michael (mikedecshop) | 1479 comments listening to The Children's Hour by Douglas Clegg relly liking it so far.


message 364: by Michiganmermaid (new)

It is. And dovetails quite nicely with Kevin Hearne's Hounded, which I'm also reading. :)

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments That sounds really good! I added it to my to read list!

Goo   (goob) | 11 comments I'm listening to Mark Tufo's Zombie Fallout 2. I finished the first book yesterday and am loving the second one just as much.


message 373: by Scot (new)

Scot | 639 comments I'm listening to Horns by Joe Hill. It is my first audio book so I have nothing to compare it too, but the narrator has kept it interesting so far.

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments I just finished The Serpent's Shadow (Elemental Masters, #2) by Mercedes Lackey I really, really liked it! hindu gods & magic? yes plz!


message 376: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (shelld79) | 9 comments I just started listening to A Clash of Kings today and I'm really not liking the narrator much at all. Being that this is going to be an awful lot of hours of listening due to this book's huge size I'm hoping I can warm up to it a bit more.
Otherwise I'll have to resort to changing to the print version.....

Kaisersoze | 296 comments I'm enjoying my first ever audio book, Doctor Sleep. Will Patton earning an extra pay check as the narrator!

I finished listening to The Reckoning. I love this series!! it's about immortals but they aren't vampires, just immortal.


message 382: by Latasha (new)

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments I'm listening to Even White Trash Zombies Get the Blues (White Trash Zombie, #2) by Diana Rowland . this is book 2 in the series. it's about a zombie, Angel Crawford. the narrator is very good and fits Angel's character perfectly.

that sounds interesting. I love hearing about the history of the papacy. do you listen to podcast? I could suggest some you may enjoy.


message 385: by Walter (new)

Walter Spence (walterspence) | 573 comments I do listen to a few podcasts, though sort of irregularly. I listen to the Sword and Laser podcasts.

So what are your suggestions? :)


message 386: by Latasha (new)

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments Nerds on History podcast, the medieval archives- he did one on medieval diseases and it was so interesting! stuff you missed in history class... I think that's all for now. I don't listen to nerds on history as much as I use to but I still listen to the other 2 when they put out episodes.

message 389: by Amanda (new)

Amanda | 71 comments Listening to the abominable, Dan Simmons. I'm glad I have listened to this rather than reading, as it made the huge amount of climbing details possible to get through. However have thoroughly enjoyed this.

Who is the narrator, Eleven? I loved those books so much! :)


message 392: by 11811 (Eleven) (new)

11811 (Eleven) (11811) | 1561 comments Eduardo ballerini (sp)? Never heard of him before but he was excellent in book 1 so I held out on book 2 until I could listen to it. Worth the wait.


message 393: by 11811 (Eleven) (new)

11811 (Eleven) (11811) | 1561 comments I have the audio of Speaks the Nightbird if you want to reexperience the story in another medium.


message 394: by Char (new)

Char | 17498 comments Thanks for the offer, but I'm good. Matthew is so different now from what he was like back then it would probably only confuse me.
That was very nice of you though, it's appreciated!


message 395: by Scott (new)

Scott | 255 comments My niece gave me The Gingerbread Girl on CD for Xmas...and I still haven't listened to it. I almost dont want to start because it will be over. Anyone read or listened to this by Stephen King?


message 396: by Latasha (new)

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments I haven't Scott.


message 397: by Latasha (new)

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments The Descent this is the last book in this trilogy and I have loved all 3. it's one of my favorites. The Descent (The Taker, #3) by Alma Katsu


message 398: by Latasha (new)

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness
I liked this one a lot. I was very delighted when it's revealed who the monster is. but the story is sad and really emotional. I gave it 4 stars.


message 399: by Shannon (new)

Shannon (fateisforlosers) I really enjoy listening to Stephen King novels, and it's fun because I have something to look forward to on long car rides or road trips. A few months ago, I listened to Doctor Sleep and the narration by Will Patton was amazingly well done. I'm currently making my way through 11/22/63.


message 400: by Latasha (new)

Latasha (latasha513) | 11983 comments I listened to The audio book of Duma Key. It was 21 hours long but worth it!
