The NC can play audiobooks in mp3 format. This is actually better than the kindles robotic voice. You have characters voices as well as scene setting music. I have used audiobooks from the public library web site(free)and from BN.com. I downloaded Overdrive to my pc and then downloaded the audiobook from the library or BN.com to Overdrive. With Overdrive open, connect your NC to your computer and then click transfer. Audiobooks can be found in apps > music. The BN "shop" searches google books as well as BN books. To find free books type in 0.00 in the search field. Hope this is helpful. Welcome to the forums!
