Through no one's fault other than my own I have FIVE credits on my Audible account.
Any recommendations?
I have the entire Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams cannon already and various auto biographies.

@karenshancock the new Wheel of Time (Rosalind Pike narrates) are great fun. I also love the Maggie Gyllenhal version of “Anna Karenina” @scalzi ‘s newest “Kaiju Preservation Society” is great.

@karenshancock
Have you met #Murderbot? That series is my main comfort read. Start with All Systems Red.

Also, the Wayfarers series by Becky Chambers is deeply excellent and comforting. Start with A Long Way To A Small Angry Planet.

@karenshancock do you have the newer editions of Pratchett's books (not the Tony Robinson/Nigel Planer ones)? They're unabridged and have wonderful casts! Also...the Rivers of London books are good

@karenshancock @ShaulaEvans “Space: 1969” is good.

“Spider Kiss” (Harlan Ellison), “Alien III” (William Gibson), and “Becoming Superman,” (J. Michael Straczynski’s autobiography), all wonderful.

Non-Fiction, “Space Odyssey” (Benson) and “The Dawn of Everything” are also excellent.

@karenshancock I love the audiobook of the biography of Frank Ramsey by Cheryl Misak "A Sheer Excess of Powers". A great discussion of the interplay of mathematics, logic and philosophy. With Economics as well.
