Simon Winchester reads his own books, including his somewhat autobiographical "Outposts". He's really quite good and has a very rich voice.
Audiobooks over the years have improved so much. While some of the non professional readers are pretty good, voice talent really is, well, a talent as well as a skill/craft. It's amazing how a really good voice talent can spice up a just ok book. It's also amazing how a bad voice talent (or perhaps I should say an inappropriate voice talent) can ruin a great book.
