For me it was Audibles “The Great Courses - Ancient Egypt” with Egyptologist Bob Brier. It’s 24h long but it is really worth it.

    It’s more of an audio drama than an audiobook but I really loved The Sandman by Audible.

    No recent great ones, but Mo Gawdat’s “Scary Smart: The Future of Artificial Intelligence and How You Can Save Our World” was ok.

    Recently listened to The Invisible Life of Addy Larue. It was excellent, both the story and the narrator.

    The Count of Monte Cristo

    It is ‘novel zero’ and has it all.
