I listened to the audio that is available here: http://youtu.be/2SUFy2q27N8 while reading along with the text. I know that a lot of this went right over my head, the puns, the word play, the joking, and etc, but I caught enough to follow the ludicrous story, and chuckled along. Hearing it, with inflection and in different voices was a vast improvement over attempting to puzzle it out on my own.
I don't know that this will be a favorite, but I definitely suspect that comedy over tragedy is more my thing...
