Unabridged Audio Book Titles

I am wanting a good recomendation for a new fantasy series I can start that is available in audiobook format. It also needs to be available unabridged.

What is the Title, Author, and Why do you like it?
It needs to come in either CD or Cassette only (sorry no downloads).

Garth Nix's Abhorsen series, first book is "Sabriel." It is a great fantasy series, a little creepy, and read by Tim Curry.

Any of Tamora Pierce's work is very good. She's got two main series, and then sub series within one of them. I'd highly recommend any of the audio books, as they are done by Full Cast Audio, a great company.

Full Cast Audio also did the His Dark Materials series, by Philip Pullman. The first one, "The Golden Compass," is coming out as a movie this winter.

And of course, there's the Harry Potter books.

I need to read more, and by the way also comprehend it. So I am wondering weather using audio books are faster, or are they not? While on their titles they say unabridged, I am still not sure weather a book like say Freakonomics can be finished in 8 hours or Blink. If I was to read them it would defenitely cost me more time!
Therefore could it be me that read not so fast, as one can read in the audiobook.
When I try to read lloudly, it takes me even more time, I think!
Its confusing, I hope that someone out there has an answer to my question.

when you listen to a book you lose the ability to make notes in the margins or go back and do quick references to parts you may not understand. unabridged versions that you listen for enjoyment would be the exception to this, but if you're listening for comprehension for subjects or non-fiction like freakanomics then reading is the way to go.
