I’m giving an Audible trial a whirl. I can get two audiobooks to “keep”. I already know what one will be, any recommendations for the other?

Hi! I have no clue what kind of stuff you like. But I just love audio books, so I had to answer.

The classic fantasy novel 'Northern Lights' by Philip Pullman is one of my all-time favourite books and has a well produced audio book with multiple voice actors.

Then there is the 'Stranger Times' urban fantasy series, written by C. K. McDonnell and read by Brendan McDonald. Purely in terms of voice acting those are my favourite audio books, the narrator is brilliant. But they're also great stories and very funny.

My favourite science fiction book series is the 'Expanse' by James S.A. Corey and I can recommend the audio books for this series as well.

I don’t watch TV, but I did re-read #HisDarkMaterials and am now watching the BBC TV production of it. So far it's quite vivid and compelling.

Two episodes in and I appreciate the writing, casting, acting, VFX, and overall production choices on this series #HisDarkMaterials

Really enjoyed the first season, and its many smart, considered choices. Felt like the first book just flew by when I re-read it last year, so I enjoyed the lingering moments that S1 spends its time on. #HisDarkMaterials

Is it just me, or the intro #music of the season 2 of #Foundation is similar to #HisDarkMaterials series?

Lyra and Will save the worlds and that's their reward? Hmph.

...and no raccoon daemon in the entire series?

Finished up HBO's His Dark Materials last night. I'm bowled over by Philip Pullman's world. I read the original trilogy in the early 2000's so I can't comment on the accuracy of the series as compared to the books, but I can say that I enjoyed every minute of the show.

His conception of Death as a being who enters this life with us, who remains our closest confidant through this life, and who finally ushers us out of life is brilliant.
