Audio Book Listing
I'm a huge fan of audio books. We listen to them a lot during our drives down to Virginia Beach, up to Maine, around Alaska, and all sorts of other places. We as a rule only get unabridged (although one or two abridged [A] have snuck in here). Why? Novels are written in a certain way by the author. I don't want to hear a version with chunks missing.
Good places to get books on tape are:
- Books On Tape - rental (very easy, highly recommended)
- Amazon.com - great selection
