Audible Recommendations?

[Eeve]

I've got some credits burning a hole in my account! I love crime, police procedural etc. Can anyone recommend something they've enjoyed and that's really well read?

I like James Patterson , I am waiting for my next credit so i can get Cat and Mouse .
I really like Anthony Head narrating just about anything too so I am glad he is doing this one .

I also really like the Dresden Files , James Marsters reads all of them , he is the lead role in the books and plays a wizard ( absolutely nothing like harry potter type stuff ) who helps the police , his dry wit really appeals to me.

I keep having to buy extra credits

I've just finished the Hungover Games and absolutely loved it. My favourite genre is memoirs or autobiographies read by the author. They're so interesting!

I’m listening by to the Rivers of London series by Ben Aaronavich at the moment and it’s bloody brilliant. So imaginative and funny.

Other memorable books have been The Rosie Project trilogy, The Handmaids Tale, Pillars of the Earth, and the Cormoran Strike books.

I’ve just finished Blood and Sugar by Laura Shepherd-Robinson, narrated by Ben Onwukwe. It is absolutely brilliant.

Forensics by Val Mcdermid
Anything by Stuart Mcbride

Oh yes definitely the Robert Galbraith Strike books

I second the Cormoran Strike series and the Rivers of London series. Brilliantly narrated as well as fab stories.

The Martian was hands-down the most gripping thing I have ever listened to in my life. I would drive more slowly so I could listen for longer.

The Obama autobiographies (Becoming and Promised Land), read by the authors. Riveting.

I really like the Australian woman who narrates Lianne Moriarty books.

There’s a historical crime series called the chronicles of Matthew Bartholomew that is in main narrated brilliantly, apart from an odd couple of books where someone else did it, then later in the series the original guy seems to have forgotten it all. So weird. There’s 20 plus books though, very enjoyable.

I enjoyed the DS Nathan Cody books by David Jackson. But they are a bit grizzly, but also quite thought provoking in places. There are two themes running through the books, one theme gets finished so you get a complete story, but the other runs on, so if you get them, listen to them in order....I'm still waiting for book 5 as I need to know....(but I don't want to put a spoiler in so will leave it there!)

The James Oswald Inspector Maclean novels are all brilliant. Set in Edinburgh they have a supernatural element which put me off for ages, but don’t let it!
I’d also second Stuart McBride. And I’m currently listening to the Tom Reynolds series by Jo Spain (set in Eire). Classic police procedural with interesting characters.
