As much as I dislike Amazon, I am an Audible junkie and having free books like the Screwtape Letters (C.S. Lewis) is a big plus. Looking for something interesting to pick up on. I generally like horror but also have probably 70 plus books on philosophy/ history like Sowell, Jung, Friedman, Rothbard, etc. On a side note, for fellow audiobook fans, RC Bray is doing Starship Troopers with a May slotted release.

Hard for me ro recommend you since I'm not big on horror or philosophy.
But if you're interested in non fiction, you might wanna check out the story of Douglas Mawson. It's as close to horror that non fiction might ever get. I don't wanna do a spoiler fest here's but let's suffice to say that it's one of the most hellish polar survival stories ever.
Look for either "Alone in the Ice" or "Mawson's Will", both are good books (the former being more successful). You might find the book Mawson himself wrote (Home of the Blizzard) but it's amazingly low key and underwhelming.
You gotta let somebody else tell his story, because Mawson tended to downplay everything in his book, after all, that's what gentlemen did, you didn't wanna be bragging.
If you're looking for fiction, I'm currently reading Patrick O'Brians Aubrey-Maturin series and it's been pretty fun. It takes a while for it to pick up steam, and the latter books are not as good. But between books 3 and 10 it's really good reading.
I’m always up for a good non-fiction history! Thank you
