I listen to books on cd all the time, either commuting or at work, depening what I have to do.
Anything by Graphic Audio is gonna be awesome, they do far more then just read the book, have an entire cast of people and effects, I;ve listened to more then half of their stuff. Oriented originally I think to truck drivers who listen to audio books a LOT.
I usually just look at their website, then see if I can find the audio book from the library. lol
