What's a title that is worth it (to you) to have both the physical copy and the audiobook? (lemmy.world)

There are only a few books that I've experienced both ways. I'm wondering if this is an area for exploration.

Ok. We can be friends.

The Expanse is among my favourite sci-fi of all time. Others include Chris Claremont and Johnathan Hickman writing the X-Men, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and Atwood's Maddaddam trilogy. Three-Body may get there, but I read it amid reading the Expanse. Maybe the physical books will shift my mind some.

Three-Body was a great read and such incredible insight to a different perspective of sci-fi. The reveal of Dark Forest theory absolutely stopped me in my tracks. Death's End was such a great conclusion to that storyline.
