I've listened to the entire trilogy and The Hobbit and absolutely loved hearing them told by Andy Serkis. Now, what do I listen to? Music again?

Andy Serkis does a fantastic job of bringing JRR Tolkien's books to life. I can't wait to listen to The Return of the King.

I always loved this book. And hearing it read by Golem himself makes it even better! I'm moving on to The Two Towers now.

I didn't actually read this book. I listened to the audiobook, and I have to admit that listening has probably made this harder for me to review than if I had read it. I don't know how to spell any of the names. I also find my mind wandering a little more when listening than when reading. I took this into account and didn't drop any stars for that.

Garraway does a fantastic job of world-building. I love the idea behind this series. The characters were well-written and enjoyable. I especially enjoyed the Arifel (might be spelled wrong, audio). I might need one of these for myself.

Matt Coles does a fantastic job of narrating. I loved all the unique voices he did and the animated sound of his voice. It didn't bore me at all.

This is definitely one book I would like to read when I get a chance, and I am anxious to see what happens next in the series!

I have always loved The Hobbit, but hearing it read by Any Serkis made it so much better!

Caster Gravebriar is framed for poisoning her coven mate. On her journey to prove her innocence, she finds herself, friendship, and love.

Great characters, great story, great scenery, poor kitties.

I've only listened to a handful of audio books, so I don't think I'm a good judge of the quality of it, but there were a few places where it sounded like the narrator changed.
