The Three Body Problem is absolutely incredible. Especially as an audiobook; the narrator performs different voices for different characters and emotional states. It's written in Chinese and the translation is outstanding, and I found it really refreshing and interesting to see sci-fi from an eastern cultural perspective.

I think what this series does well is it incorporates science as an idea, philosophical framework, and social institution. It also has an interesting take on what interactions between civilized species might look like. It does great at taking these elements of hard sci-fi and making them meaningful and compelling.

Some downsides to be aware of to stave off any disappointment: the pacing can be a bit slow, especially in the first 25% (true of every book of this series, I think), and the dialogue between characters can feel a bit stiff (perhaps due to translation). Speech is fine, but casual conversations don't always feel smooth. But if you feel like you'd be okay with that and you're craving something fresh, I can't recommend this enough. The following books are great as well.

Ahh shit, I did not really see the part about you wanting longer audio. Book length is pretty short for litrpg so this is really tough.

The best I can do for that criteria is recommend good long audiobooks but they wont be litrpg.

Ready Player One is a self explanatory recommendation. 16 hours

Super Powereds super hero book. Super long at 26hours per book and 4 books total in series

Wool followed by Shift followed by Dust. Its an international bestseller post-apocalyptic drama. I dont really like drama but this one is amazing

Three body problem followed by Dark Forest followed by Deaths end . Its a three part ultra hard core science fiction. There are moments when it gets boring only to turn around and fuck your mind so hard you wont know what hit you. Written by a Chinese author which introduces an interesting perspective on things you dont see with American authors. 14/23/25 hours

Dresden Files is a great long running series with avg 16h per book
