I'm a Dan Simmons fan. LOVED Ilium and Olympos. Yes, the robots are the best characters.

I doubt that would work for me (but I never thought there was something wrong with Hyperion anyway). I can't imagine having to listen to a book
Besides the horror of being force-fed someone else's interpretation, there's no way I can concentrate on a purely oral message. I can't even listen to a podcast without my mind wandering. Of course, it does that when I read too, but then I only have to stop reading for a while, and at worst go back a few paragraphs.
I loved the robots too
