One interesting thing about the audiobook was the use of an actual choir singing in a few places when the fictional choir was supposed to be performing. This was done in such a way that it enhanced the story for me, and I would have been happy with even more of it.

I read the ebook version last month and thoroughly enjoyed it. I imagine having snippets of the choir singing would enhance the listening experience.
