Looks cool
Peterotica
The Three-Body Problem is pretty good.
Touches of sci-fi, touches of technology (VR realm), touches of planetary science/astronomy, plus Communistic China motifs sprinkled throughout. Only gripe I had with it was that the characters were really flat -- never really get attached to any of the characters and their personalities never really develop. Maybe have been lost in translation from Chinese to English or was just the author's style. Still worth the listen!
1984 is another good one to listen to if you've never read/listened to it in the past. I'm currently neck-deep in the Emperor series audiobooks by Conn Iggulden (historical fiction about Julius Caesar).
Tina Fey has a good one.
World of Tiers, Chronicles of Amber, The Dark Tower ofc, The Magicians(tv show available with the same name), The Spook's Apprentice(Some lame movie was made called 7th son), The Expanse(tv show with the same name available).
Bonus:
Red Notice: Story of Bill Browder who built a hedge fund in Russia. The Russian government eventually wanted a piece of his fortune, banned him from the country and now basically want him dead.
Pandemic: Extinction Files: Sci-fi story, now 2 books in. Really good - bit Bourne Identity, with some sci-fi, tech, and even a bit of web hosting mixed in. Really hardly any web hosting, but it is there.
THE PRINCE by Niccolò Machiavelli
I earn 200k yearly after that book. It just works despite some criticism.
I recommend The by Endis NIgh.

@Ympker:
Looking for something specific?
Simply entertaining or more specific ones?
Not anything specific right now. Interested mostly in what you guys can recommended
Sebastian Fitzek for thrillers;
And as I think, you're speaking german, "Der Tod und andere Höhepunkte meines Lebens" by Sebastian Niedlich
Perfect title and author name
For the others it is translated to something like this "death and other highlights of my life"
@eol: It is a nice book too. And the story has been continued lately with "Der Tod ist schwer zu überleben", which translates to "Death is hard to outlive"
Thanks.
Also nice title, seems I got to look into those audiobooks...

The audiobook version of 'We are Legion (we are Bob)' is pretty well received.
