Oh, that was good. I hadn't realized how big the audiobook business had grown. (Oh, and there is an acting thing that Dame Judi Dench cannot do. Who knew?!)

I’ve done two more audiobooks since – most recently, last spring – with the gently increasing confidence that comes of never, ever listening back to previous recordings.
