So I can in fact mirror my iPad's screen to FireTV Stick and read my Kindle books on the TV (including with Immersion Reading audio). Audible plays through just fine (using either AirPlay or AirTunes, though neither gives you much to look at). There is a several second delay to mirror at full HD, and there's an aspect mis-match between iPad's 4:3 vs HDTV 16:9, however.
In theory, mirroring should work as well with AirPlay clients running on MacOS or Windows. But my Macbook Pro is too old to be supported directly, so I'd need to try some other software.
FireHDX supports 'screen mirroring' with FireTV, so you should be able to use that to read Kindle books on your TV (or play audible or music, I should think).
Sadly, my FireHD6 does not support that feature (it requires a bit more CPU).
An Audible streaming app would only be possible if Audible's infrastructure supported streaming (which it currently does not).
A Kindle app is probably technically possible. If there was a FireTV web browser, they'd be more than halfway there (via Kindle Cloud Reader).
