In the iOS audiobook Prologue, there are a number of actions that can be triggered using Shortcuts. This is very convenient, as I can have my audiobook resume playing when it connects to my car's Bluetooth, for example.
Describe the solution you'd like
At least some basic "scriptable" actions, like "Resume last audiobook", would be nice.

+1 for a basic Siri Shortcut to resume the last audiobook.
It would be great to have a shortcut to select a specific book to play, but resuming last played is a start.

I will echo the request and say that I would most love the equivalent of "Play Current Book". I used that one in Prologue to automatically start my book when I got in my car and my phone connected to bluetooth.

A workaround might be using Universal Links (URL that opens a particular page in the app). iOS Shortcuts could be used to open that URL.

I would also like this. Play last book and start sleep timer are the minimum for what I would want to use it for. Resume a certain playlist would also be useful.

I also second this, it'll be so convenience.

Resume Last Audiobook would be most important to me, Play X Playlist would be a close second.
