Marcus Didius Falco audiobooks in order

Falco is a private informer in Vespasian's Rome: poor, sardonic and in love with a senator's daughter. The mysteries hold up, but the city is what you come back for.

Which order should you listen in?

Publication order, which is also chronological — the books run through the seventies AD in sequence and Falco's household grows as they go. The reader changes in runs — Griffin on most of the early books, Rodska on most of the later ones — so sample both before committing to a run. The Flavia Albia books that follow are a separate series.
