Bill Clinton's My Life, Kurt Eichenwald's Conspiracy of Fools, Cervantes Don Quixote - all make for excellent audio books. On the other hand, Steven Levitt's Freakonomics isn't so great. I guess if you go for narratives and stories - audio books are great. But thought provoking books aren't so good on audio, because there is no time for quiet contemplation - one of the greatest joys of reading insightful books!
