Audiobook recommendations?

[Becky Lindroos]

Oh!  And Against the Day was fabulous in audio format - I’ll never read “Suck-LING!” the same way again - the voice of Dick Hill was created for AtD,  and I can barely listen to Hill read anything else.  (That said, it did take a bit to get used to it but then nothing else would have worked.)

Rowling crime novels written under the name Robert Galbraith are surprisingly good -  old fashioned English who-done-it with a war-crippled (Afghanistan) detective and his side-kick.  The Silkworm (#2) has a literary theme with the publishing industry as the setting. There are lots of allusions, references, in-jokes, etc. relating to literature as well as a mad author as victim.
