After listening to a few clips of The Silmarillion narrated by Andy Serkis, I am interested in seeing if I could actually get used to listening to audiobooks. I usually can’t focus enough on audio alone to keep up with a book but now I’m thinking it might be more of a narration quality thing than anything else.
What are your suggestions for other audiobooks with great or at least similar narration as this new version of The Silmarillion?
World War Z is fantastic as an audiobook. If you’re not familiar, it’s written as a set of interviews of people who lived through a zombie war. The author, Max Brooks, voices the narrator/journalist and actors like Alan Alda, Mark Hamill, Carl and Rob Reiner voice the various interviewees. Mark Hamill doing the Battle of Yonkers is a highlight.
