Audiobooks narrated by Simon Jones
Arthur Dent on the radio, and the reader of And Another Thing..., Eoin Colfer's sixth Hitchhiker's book — the one book on that listening order he reads alone; the Adams novels are Stephen Fry and Martin Freeman. His other Hitchhiker's listings are the BBC radio phases, full-cast plays rather than readings. Beyond that, Dan Ariely's behavioural economics and a Right Ho, Jeeves.

Watch the type column. 1 of these is abridged — a shortened text, not the whole book, for the same credit. Why that keeps happening →
