Decided to read Sloop of War, by Alexander Kent, and narrated by Michael Jayston. This is number 5 (?) in the Richard Bolitho series. This is a series I've read many years ago, and am now picking up again because the books are finally becoming available in North America in both eBook and audio book formats. They're not Aubrey/Maturin, but still very enjoyable. The narrator, however, is no better than a 3.5 or so.
Got sidetracked by Just One Damn Thing After Another, the first in the Chronicles of St. Mary. This $20.85 list, or $1.99 if you buy the Kindle book for $.85. Duh.

This book, narrated by Zara Ramm, is the exploits of time traveling historians, based in St. Mary's College. The narration is good, not great, the story is well done (though like a lot of folks, I find the 4 year gap a bit annoying), and when all is said and done, I was _really_ glad I was on a long trip in the car, cause I was no way going to put this down!
