I'm not a fan of Labor, I vote Green, but there are still considerable differences between the LNP and Labor. Those differences might have narrowed in recent times, but they still matter.

I love Kim Stanley Robinson in general and really enjoyed one of his earlier works, 'Pacific Edge'.

Whilst it's the third in his 'Three California's Trilogy', each book is stand-alone and set in a different 'future' so have no direct baring on one another. I didn't enjoy the other two books quite as much, but they were good in their own ways.

I recently listened to the audiobooks of this and its sequel, 'A Prayer for the Crown Shy' for free on Libby.

It made a very nice change from my usual dark dystopian sci fi reads...

I had the audio version of one of Sam Harris's books a while ago and I swear the narrator pronounced every sentence like it ended with an exclamation mark! It was exhausting and I couldn't stick with it past the first chapter.

Funnily enough I'm currently listening to the first Expanse book, which is narrated pretty well by Jefferson Mays.

I read these on my Kindle and really enjoyed them. If you can't enjoy the narration, I would recommend a hard copy or e-book version as an alternative, although I know that's not always a suitable replacement.
