Just about finished with the Trials of Apollo. It's a nice change of pace, the narrator is good and the next in the series is due out in a couple of months.
Now that I'm back in a noisy office, I'm back to wearing headphones/earbuds much of the day so I can block out the constant distractions. (insert long rant about idiotic corporations that think sticking programmers in a noisy environment sitting next to people who scream into a phone all day is suppose to improve productivity). I alternate between the two to give the inside of my ears/outside of my ears a rest. At the office, I've started listening to Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology, which is about....Norse Mythology. Neil Gaiman reminds me of Simon Winchester in that he has a very nice reading voice and good delivery. Most authors probably should not read their own material, but these two can pull it off. It's a pretty short book, only 6 hours long. Also just pick up Stephen Fry reading the Complete Sherlock Holmes. This one is 62 hours long. I will most certainly be bouncing back and forth between this one and other books over the next couple of months.
