I find these scrolling through Audibles discounted titles: https://www.audible.com.au/ep/sale?page=1
They are cheaper than a half price credit. Sale prices are available for current Audible Premium Plus members only.

Most of the books didn't interest me; they were the most appealing. However, I suspect a male would be better suited at translating the Illiad, a very testosterone-ny literary work.

The George Orwell Collection is $7: https://www.audible.com.au/pd/The-George-Orwell-Complete-Col…

Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky (Naxos version) is $6 (I read C&P for a university subject; it was my favourite book from the subject's reading list).

Audible USA seem to have a completely different selection of audio books for sale. The best was Watchers by Dean Koontz, at $7 ( assume that is USD): https://www.audible.com/pd/Watchers-Audiobook/B07D2JG8TH

  Are they the original versions, or translations?

    Translation, of course.

    I do not believe Homer penned both The Illiad & The Odyssey in English.

  Listening to the Stephen Fry books on this at the moment. First couple through the library and Libby, last one on Spotify.
  Highly recommend.

    It's called mythos, then heroes and then troy.
    Really good. I went in cold on Greek mythology.
