Alien: Out of the Shadows (Full Cast Dramatization) takes place between Alien and Aliens, and reads like really well-done fan fiction. Laurel Lefkow sounds exactly like Sigourney. It's got some contrivances, but it's fun. (4.5 hours)
Bird Box by Josh Malerman, narrated by Cassandra Campbell is a literary post-apocalyptic horror story about a young mother trying to survive in a world where something outside will make you suicidal and homicidal if you see it. The characters spend half the story blindfolded. You won't get much in the way of monsters. In fact explanation and resolution are pretty thin, but it's very strong on tension. Cassandra Campbell's narration is one of the best I've ever heard. It's a little bit reminiscent of the recent film "A Quiet Place," and Bird Box has been made into a film being released this December. (9 hours)
The Dinosaur Four by Geoff Jones (me), narrated by Nick Podehl, is a B-movie adventure about ten everyday strangers in a cafe that gets sent back in time. There are lots of dinosaur attacks and one of the survivors is just as dangerous as the dinosaurs. (8 hours)
I Am Legend by Richard Matheson, narrated by Robertson Dean is technically about vampires, but it's honestly the granddaddy of the modern zombie genre. It's a little dated (1954), but still a great read. (5.25 hours)
It by Stephen King, narrated by by Steven Webber is probably his best monster story, and one of his best books all around... but its a little longer than your road trip. (45 hours)
The Mist by Stephen King is one of my favorites, about a small group of people trapped in a supermarket when a monster-filled mist rolls int town. There's an unabridged reading at Audible narrated by Will Patton (5.25 hours) and a terrific full-cast recording you'll have to find elsewhere (1.5 hours).
Pines by Blake Crouch, narrated by Paul Michael Garcia is about a secret service agent investigating a small town where everything seems too good to be true. It feels like a mixture of The Twilight Zone, The Fugitive, and Twin Peaks. The sci-fi and monster elements slowly appear in the first book but are a big part of the second and third. It's fast, fun read. (8.5 hours)
You by Caroline Kepnes, narrated by Santino Fontana doesn't have any supernatural monsters, but it's about a creepy-as-fuck stalker in New York City. The book is written from his point of view in such a way that you (may) actually end up sympathizing with him. Fontana's narration is fantastic. (11 hours)
​
(Honestly, out of all of these, Pines feels like the one I would recommend most for your trip!)
Best,
Geoff Jones
Author of The Dinosaur Four
Narrated by Nick Podehl
I've a few recommendations here, both about writing and about langauge as a whole
I'm following this thread closely... :)
There are so many more options like this, but I don’t want to overwhelm you! These may not all be your cup of tea. But they are some of my favorites for a somewhat reasonable price.
The only book of these that I've read was The Divine Comedy. I have not listened to the audiobook but I don't think it'll be as a good as a physical copy. So I suggest not to buy it. To really appreciate this book you'll want something with an excellent forward that puts the book into context and that will have footnotes along the way. Otherwise you'll miss out on all the history that shaped the story. There's too many political and religious figures from Dante's time that without a small bit of historical knowledge it might not be as interesting. I just don't see how an audiobook would do this without interrupting the story to give the reader background information.
The Divine Comedy is broken into three parts that follows a mans journey through hell, purgatory, and heaven. My recommendation would be to just grab just the first part called Inferno. It's by far the more interesting part and practically shaped the modern images of hell.
Check out this translation:

​
This is the only book that seemed in the neighborhood on Audible.
​
I looked in a big library catalog and found this one, which was published in 79 and might have some interesting stuff:
​
https://www.amazon.com/Long-Haul-Truckers-Truck-Trucking/dp/0878700552
​
You may have stumbled on an untold story, which if true would be pretty awesome. You should write it!
Just started Expeditionary force, still chapter 1. Not grabbed me yet, but will give it time. Bobiverse was epic beyond imagination. I would add https://www.amazon.com/Singularity-Trap-Dennis-Taylor-ebook/dp/B07FBRRL2Z. It was absolutely riverting and funny and Dennis E. Taylor should just continue writing fascinating scifi books.
I've enjoyed
Minimum Wage Magic
The First Colony
Sentenced to Troll
The Divine Dungeon
The Harbinger Series
Delvers LLC
The Singularity Trap
Those are generally Sci-Fi/Fantasy.
I would think about a radio transmitter like this:
[](Bluetooth FM Transmitter for Car, QC3.0 Wireless Bluetooth FM Radio Adapter Music Player Car Kit with Hands Free Calling and 2 USB Ports Charger Support USB Flash Drive https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F2RTN5Z/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_r-vxCbEZJNJH1)
As long as your radio works
They definitely exist, in fact I think there are two different narrations however I can't seem to find any digital copies. Here is a link to the CD version on Amazon. Hope that helps.
I have used alot of FM to bluetooth transmitters.
I love this one.

Thanks! For me it seems that book #1 has the same special:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EF8Z32I/ref=series_rw_dp_sw
How are these books? Is it worth picking up all 3?
Hmmm.... Let me think about it. Specifically related to religion?
I'm sure if this is exactly what you have in mind, but I have enjoyed both these books:
https://www.amazon.com/Short-Stories-Jesus-Enigmatic-Controversial/dp/0061561037
https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Gospel-Tales-Jewish-Mystic/dp/0062011308
I recently finished an oddball of an audiobook:
KIZUMONOGATARI
That one is not quite a full-cast, since different characters have same narrator. And it has background music and even some ambient sounds (so not quite a dramatization/drama).
Story wise its quite a convoluted tale of an adaptation from the japanese visual novel, but thats only a prequel to a bigger series BAKEMONOGATARI (that was published/written first, because why not) and gathered quite a cult following over there.(trying to write a synopsis broke my brain, if anyone can do any better, be my guest) ...its a prequel...Needless to say, i'm eagerly awaiting a sequel!
In my previous car, I had the same issue and used a tape-deck adapter. https://www.amazon.com/INSTEN-Universal-Cassette-Adapter-Smartphones/dp/B00CRBA9D8 They work fairly well, but the cord usually wore out after a time. I also found a Bluetooth version in the past that kinda sorta worked, but I had Bluetooth connectivity issues that I now believe was my phone at the time.
I use something like this now: https://www.amazon.com/SmartCharge-Bluetooth-Transmitter-Receiver-Dedicated/dp/B07GJ7DHMP/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_3?keywords=roav+audio+adapter&qid=1549639180&sr=8-3-fkmrnull It has both a radio transmitter so you just tune to that channel, or aux out which is what I use. And then you can Bluetooth pair it to your phone. On my car, the power shuts off with the car so it will shut off when you turn off the car (which pauses the book), and come back on and pair automatically when you start the car up and then you just have to start the book.
You could possibly combine the too which I think would make the tape adapter last longer since you don't have to move it as much. I had mixed results with the FM adapter in the past. Mostly because you'll run into interference in spots either from other adapters or from radio stations in the same location.
Thanks, I just bought this also and can confirm it's the Maggie Gyllenhaal version.

Like others have said bluetooth fm transmitters are the way to go. Here’s what I have in both my cars
Just to give you a heads up, this book is crazy biased.
If your looking for a straight up Liberal biased book that doesn't even consider political ideals outside of his own beliefs then Krugman is what you want.
If your looking to actually learn about politics, their ideals, and be informed on our government then I recommend:
What you should know about American Politics, but don't https://www.amazon.com/What-Should-Know-About-Politics/dp/1611452996
or

My Lost Family is by Danny Ben-Moshe, who charges that any criticism of Israeli state policies is anti-semitic.
Fyi.
ETA Mr. Ben-Moshe is an editor of this book, which espoused the idea mentioned. Also, Mr. Ben-Moshe's more extreme writings in the Jerusalem Post have disappeared from search results.
As for why getting a free (to us) book should matter, others have helpfully answered the question.
The Kindle version is on sale for $2.99 in the US, plus $7.49 to add the Audible version, so only $10.48 for the combo (cheaper than Audible as a standalone).
Book 1 is also on sale .
This copy in particular is $0.60 with the Cumming add-on for $0.99.

Will give you the book for .66 cents and the audio for $1.99

Bought it a week ago used it 3 times for swimming works perfectly so far. 130$ to only use while swimming a few times a week, was asking a bit much. but no regrets so far.
