I haven’t listened to the Jasper Fforde book because I wasn’t sure how all the subcripts and things would work.

I’m definitely one who would never bother reading Harry Potter in print, but have delighted in Jim Dale’s narration. (Interestingly, in England I take it that Stephen Fry does the narration, so over there they all think of him as the voice of Harry Potter…)

To add to the list, I think I enjoy the James Bond stories more as audiobooks, where the accents and all can be expertly communicated.

Some non-fiction falls into this also…it can’t possibly be as enjoyable to read James Cramer as it is to hear him tell his own story in his over-the-top way…

And there is the non-fiction that can add in the historical recordings to illuminate a topic…
