If you're curious and just want to try it out there are a lot of free short stories read by narrators that you can get from librivox.org. These are mostly not professional narrators, they're volunteers, but some are very good. Other's are not so good so sample them first.
This should give you a good sense of what an audiobook is.
There are also other sources. Amazon has a lot of short stories, as does Audible.com. These usually a few dollars. Most of these are by professional narrators and actors.
You can also find a lot of these on Youtube. Just do a search for audiobook. A lot of people have posted them. They're technically videos but they're really just sound with some picture displayed while you listen.
