This is probably the first audiobook narrated by Wil Wheaton where I think he is actually suited to the task, because this is short snippets of fun science rather than a dramatic production.

I enjoyed the short snippets of fun science, too. Short enough chapters to listen to a few while doing household chores. I pretty much treated it like a podcast. While the audio version lacks the fun of Randall Munroe's drawings to go alongside the text, the lack doesn't detract, and I found the science easier to follow by having it read to me rather than trying to read it myself.

(I also have the dead-tree version in the house, because my husband doesn't like audio books and I knew he'd like this, so I have the pictures anyway.)
