Hey folks! I’m looking for some audiobook ideas (preferably fantasy and science-fiction). I want them to have a TV series or Movie about them though I could watch before listening to them.

All ideas welcome!

Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman: Audio. Show. You can purchase the series or sail the high sea.

It's also available for borrowing through the Libby app and a midcontinent public library card.

I always forget to check Libby. Love or library systems around the Seattle area.

The Shannara series by Terry Brooks, with the shortlived Shannara Chronicles TV series (it was not specified the show or movie had to be good...)

@MadCybertist outlander,

The Expanse is an incredible show, and has a pretty extensive audio book collection. I'd recommend tying a library card to the Libby app and you can borrow all of them from there.

Here is the first book.
