I am not surprised that your tastes, digamma, are not that far from mine. I'm a big audible guy. Here are a few:

Christopher Moore - Lamb is downright brilliant, Fool is very good, I suspect others are great also, he's gifted

James Lee Burke - his Dave Robicheaux series is my favorite mystery series ever, and Will Patton's narration is a plus

Harlan Coben's standalone books (i.e. not the Myron Bolitar series) are really solid - I'd start with Tell No One

Chad Harbach's The Art of Fielding - nominally about sports, but truly just a good novel

Neil Gaiman - I'd start with American Gods or Neverwhere, but he has a wide range of offbeat stuff, all pretty good I think

Dan Chaon's Await Your Reply - I think it misses the mark on being great, but it's certainly interesting
