Actually, there are quite a few out there available in an ebook format. I'm not so sure about an audio book format.

Lord Darcy - one of the early _magic in the modern world_ books. Think Sherlock Holmes, the magician. It's available from Baen books.

Mike Resnick's Stalking the Unicorn - as well as the sequels. This one is available as an audio book and as an ebook. More of a Humphrey Bogart meets the fay type book.

Mercedes Lackey has a number of books more or less in this style. I really liked her Diane Tregarde books, though they don't seem to be available in ebook. Her Bedlam Bard series is also quite good.

There are a number of series that have modern world meets the fantasy worlds, that were popular back in the 70's and 80's, but most are not available as ebooks. Brian Dailey's Doomfarer's books (think Vietnam solder transported to fantasy world), Roger Zelazny's Amber series definitely fits the bill. I just hope that these books will eventually make it to a legit ebook store (yes, all of these are available on the darknet).
