I started with the Harry Potter series and Stephen Fry and it was amazing and is still my favorite. I am always looking for other suggestions.

So many. It's hard to recommend anything without knowing what your tastes are and what reading age you're looking for. Not that I'm trying to pry but there's a lot of explicit sex and/or violence (for instance) that I wouldn't want to recommend if you're not into that kind of thing. If you like urban fantasy, then Patricia Briggs 'Mercy Thompson series is great as is Celia Roman's 'Sunshine Walking Stick' series. Anne Bishop's 'Other' series is also excellent.

All human beings search for either reasons to be good, or excuses to be bad.

My favorite audiobook is Milkman written by Anna Burns, read by Brid Brennan. The book itself was kinda frustating yet I love it, and the narrator is soooo great! She made the story more alive :D

A few to try: Simon Vance, I've listened to "The Good Thief" series by Chris Ewan, earlier ones are better.
"Rod" by Rod Stewart.
Full Cast Audio, Into the Land of Unicorns by Bruce Coville. There are a bunch Full Cast books that are a lot of fun.
The Rosie Project (Don Tillman, #1) by Graeme Simsion
"Tales of the Otori" Series

I know it's an irritation rather than a like but I really hate actors and narrators trying to replicate an accent that they just don't have the capacity to reproduce authentically. I've been listening to a fairly awful Scottish accent that just grates. I'd much rather narrators just didn't do it rather than do it badly.

The Nevermoor Series by Jessica Townsend (Author) narrated by Gemma Whelan. If you like the earlier Harry Potter books then these are great.

Personally, I find audiobooks to be quite bad. I prefer to read a book myself rather than hearing somebody reading it to me.
