12:22PM - Looking for a very specific something

My father's birthday was yesterday, and I still haven't managed to get him a gift. He's lately into audiobooks, as he enjoys stories but has some serious difficulties with reading (he's severely dyslexic, almost to the point of being illiterate due to genetics).
I was hoping to get him a copy of Good Omens (knowing that the humor would not be lost on him) on CD, but alas, they've never published such a thing as far as I can tell. I've been therefore looking for something he might enjoy. He's usually into historical fiction and occasionally light fantasy (he devoured HP), but any story that's good will satisfy him.

3:10PM - Fandom Recipes

A friend and I are planning a dinner made entirely of sci-fi and fantasy based recipes, and I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone had ideas they could offer. We're looking for recipes with names that reference fantasy or sci-fi tropes/works and that make foods mentioned in works (so recipes that produce foods from, say, Redwall would be great). We particularly need dishes that are vegan or milk-free, since vegetarian and omnivorous recipes are easier to find.

Thanks for any help.
