Listening to audio versions of crime fiction and thrillers is a way of life for me I listen to books to and from work every day and in fact almost whenever I drive the car. Add to that the fact that I've also realised the usefulness of an audio book on my I-Pod for long flights.
I seem to be more tolerant of thrillers in audio, and it stretches the range of books I am comfortable in reading.
Sometimes, I think, a good narrator will get me to the end of a book, and enjoying it too, where I may have become frustrated when just turning pages. Comedy in crime comes in that category.
I count all audio books in my list of book read, and I review them too.
There are four levels:

Congratulations Kerrie, nice mix of books here. I tend to like thrillers in audio format too, just finished a great Linwood Barclay one on my way to work this morning.
