  Also listened to this recently, Gene Simmons - Sex Money Kiss
  

  

  Its different to what you might expect, his views on marrige, business etc quite entertaining. Torrent around also.

  The Harry Potter audio books read by Jim Dale. Makes it feel like you're back in pre-school being read to by a teacher.

  I've been downloading Audio Books recently, after years of looking down my nose at them. They're good for trawling through the kind of book I want to read, yet leave sitting on my shelf because I rarely find that 'moment'.

  Keeping me awake at night currently is Bill Bryson's 'A short history of nearly everything', as read by the author, which is good in the darkness as his voice is quite soporific (in a pleasant way - it's like a family member is reading me bedtime stories).

  I downloaded 'Cambridge Lectures' by Steven Hawking, as I've had to admit I'll never actually read either of the copies of 'A brief history of time' that I seem to have. Amusingly, they are (naturally) in his robo-voice, so I've only listened to a couple of minutes worth before laughing too much.

  From the little fiction I've downloaded (some Stanislaw Lem and David Brin) I've realised that I'd much rather read that kind of thing - anything which specifically relies on the imagination suffers from the character and pace of a third party's narration.

  I've just been digging through Demonoid each night before I go to bed - they've got a specific Audio Book category, so I'd recommend you dig through that.
