I happened to notice them at Overdrive while waiting for my holds to come through, and managed to borrow all ten at once from my various libraries so I could read in order. The first seven are narrated by Laura Linney, who is excellent; those books also use music to enhance the tension (which I wouldn't normally like, but it fits these books). Then the last three are from a different publisher and lack the music; the narrator for book eight does a lot of really oddball voices--Hannah Gruen with a Southern accent! A third narrator handles the last two books, and she's OK.
It was hard to stop myself from digging out the old hardcovers to continue reading, but I managed--at least so far!
