Hey Alianman,
This is what I do. I listen to fiction books as mp3s..it's so awesome just sitting back in your chair and photoreading something while you listen to a Terry Goodkind book.
But that isn't going to answer your question. To answer your question I would recommend something similar. My purpose is to be able to immerse myself in this fictional world. Or you can simply state that you want to understand the main plot.
