Since this is COMPLETELY unrelated to Mr. Sanderson and the Cosmere, I am putting it here. There has been a little discussion about the Audio format for literature and this quote from Mr. King absolutely nails it for me. 'A suspense novel is more suspenseful — especially in the hands of a good reader — because your eye can’t jump ahead and see what happens next.' Stephen King. The tendency for my eyes and brain to jump ahead when 'Big Awesome or Big Crazy Thing' is happening is why I Love Audio. There is nothing that can replace the feel of the Real 'Smelling like Magic and Awesome and Perfection' thing Hardcover in your hands, I know... But for the sake of the Story and all of the Care and Love and Blisters and Deadlines that the author poured into it, I prefer to take the extra time and experience everything at the Narrators natural pace. Especially the Good+ Narrators. Man, they can pull you into a story.
