Ask HN: What are your favorite audiobooks?

3 pointscrc3214 comments

I'm generally interested and also have a bunch of audible credits to burn before closing my account.

Open to suggestions from any genre.

Game of Thrones (Narrated by Roy Dotrice) would be a great choice IMO.

For some time I've been wondering how enjoyable the books would be now that I've watched the HBO series, in which the first season covers the first book if memory serves.

The entire series?

Yes, the entire series is a joy to listen to. As a lifetime theater actor Roy Dotrice not just reads the book, but really brings it to life.

You could also check The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. It is also a good series and has two fine voice actors. Though IMO, not on par with Dotrice.

Please tell what you've bought, I have some credits of my own that lay around :)
