I am currently listening to Neal Stephenson's Seveneves. I am about eight hours in and I am enjoying it. Mary Robinette Kowal does a good job as a narrator, though her female voices are better than her male ones. I haven't read a book by Neal Stephenson in years but I decided I wanted this one because the first sentence intrigued me (and I have a weakness for disaster stories).
I am also listening to Rick Riordans The Throne of Fire, the second book in the Kane Chronicles. I have read this last year but didn't read the last book in the trilogy right away. When I saw the audiobook at the library, I just grabbed it. I must say they have found the perfect narrator for Carter Kane (Kevin R. Free), and Katherine Kellgren, who reads the part of Sadie Kane, can read the phone book to me anyway. Even though I have to admit that she is overdoing it a bit this time. Anyway, it's a lot of fun and perfect for catching up with the story before reading the last book (which is waiting for me on my Kindle).
