Well, Stephen Briggs does a good job with Pratchett. I also got the audiocassette for an abridged version of L.A. Confidential as done by David Straitharn for a dollar. Good value, plus I'm driving down to LA next week.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I've listened to both Fry and Dale, and I'd say Gris nailed it. There are a few Dale voices that grate on me, but they are more distinctive.
I'd recommend The Golden Compass for a good audiobook listen it has a cast rather than a single reader, which is great.

I mostly liked Dale, but his Hermione and Luna voices just didn't work for me at all. I really liked his voices for everybody else, though, and he was great at describing action.

I have found Pratchett makes for excellent audiobook reading. I'm currently most of the way through Small Gods.

I just finished Soulless. I think some people here have enjoyed it as well.

I liked Soulless, it did take me a bit to get into it but now I can't to read the next one/.
I've also mainlined Kim Harrison's Hollows series. Really enjoying that.

Art Crawl!!!
I ordered both yesterday.
Oh, I turned a friend on to Diana Wynne Jones books. She needed something light and absorbing. (She's feeling down.) So I discovered that a new Diana Wynne Jones book is coming out on the 10th.

Stayed up last night to finish The Hunger Games. Reserved the second volume this morning. Thankful that I am only hold #4 because I don't think I can wait that long to read it.

I started Bad Monkeys on the walk back from the library, and I was already intrigued. And then I read some more at home and I seriously wanted to just keep reading until I was done. I stopped myself, though. But, damn, I haven't encountered a true "page-turner" like this in a while.
