Describe the feature/enhancement

Itd be great if there was an ability to sample a book, much like audible lets you hear a clip of the book before purchasing it. Sometimes Im in the mood to listen to a narrator more than I am in the mood to listen to a book, and being able to pick one out with a sample would be great.

The key feature of it would be that it wouldn't track time in a book. Right now, I just hit play on a book and skip around a bit to see what it sounds like, but that leaves the book tracked as having progress, which I have to delete. Sometimes I use the chapter editor to hit play on a chapter as a sample.

A quick 'sample' button which would pick a couple of random, early time stamps to play a short 3-5 minute clip from, without any sort of progress tracked, would be great.
