I'm looking for a book or book series to listen to on audiobook, I've exhausted my supply.
I much prefer fantasy, sci-fi, fact shows (radio) and satire over all other genre, but if something is exceptionally good I'll definetly give it a chance.
My three favorite authors are George R.R. Martin, Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams. I've probably listened to every single book by the two latter atleast 4-5 times over. Pratchett has written over 30 books, so that says a bit about how much I love his books.
A Song of Ice and Fire is probably the only serious book series I've liked in a long time, but that's because the characters and story are exceptionally amazing.
I've listened to the BBC radio series called Fry's English Delight, that was really fun to listen to, since I love both Fry and language.
I detest most regular fantasy books with chosen heroes, magical swords and all the other tired old cliché's like elves and dwarves.
I like to escape reality, but I want to do so with humor, intellect, depth and originality.
I'm currently about to start listening to The Name of the Wind, because it was recommended to me.
So, do any of you know any books that might be in my taste?
