A book contains multiple aspects to me: the philosophy, the universe, the characters, and the writing style. I find that in print books I need to like three or four of these to enjoy the book, while in audiobooks I only need two. In this particular series the philosophy is the only part that I dislike, and I'm reading it as an audiobook that I'm borrowing from the library so I'm not paying for it.
Take the "Sword of Truth" series by Terri Goodkind as another example. I didn't like the philosophy and I was just "enh" on the writing style, but again, it was an audiobook so I read the entire super-long series.
