I have not found an audiobook that covers the eastern war well but have found this gem in epub/mobi form https://annas-archive.org/search?q=absolute+war 

Absolute War by Chris Bellamy

Please leave any thoughts on books I should read.

Thank you for your uploads.

There is a lot more out there.
If you'll take an advice; don't overdo the general histories.
After you spend some time in the history echo chamber all those will start to sound the same, wrong or both.

Browse trough this:

With a bit of decrement you'll easily find Eastern Front Histories since there are fewer of those books.
