I also love "The Dresden Files" as read by James Marsters.
Pretty much the words ... out of my mouth.

I don't often purchase audiobooks on novels I've already read unless the Narrator reallys draws me in with their performance.

I'm also not too keen on audiobooks that include a lot of sound effects, much like the company Graphic Audio does in their releases. I feel it distracts and sometimes drowns out the narrator on some pieces.
