In the very first episode of The Audiobook Reader's review, meet Prof. Matthew Rubery, a scholar who has spent the last decade writing about audiobooks! How and when did audiobooks develop? What makes a great audiobook? And how have attitudes to audiobook-listening changed over time? Is audiobook-listening a legitimate form of reading? Plus, find your next great audiobooks with reviews of three recent productions.
