Meanwhile, for an audiobook, as soon as I finish Sharpe's Trafalgar (nearly done), I'll start the second in the Last of the Herald Mages series from Mercedes Lackey.

I got totally sucked in to
Shogun, and I'm both reading it and listening to the Audible version, even though it isn't a WhisperSync book. This is a huge book (1,600 pages!), so it's taking a while and destroying my reading goals, but still, a superb read.
