I've recently finished "Sapiens" by Yuval Noah Harari, and now reading "Homo Deus", the sequel. Where Sapiens is "a Brief History of Humankind", Homo Deus is focused on the future of the human race, and how he thinks we'll change (or evolve?) in the future.
On the Audiobook side, book 3 of "The Cycle of Galand", which follows "The Cycle of Arawn". Fantasy, sorcery, sword fighting, quick wits, clever solutions to problems, and fun banter between the main characters.
