World War Z - Max Brooks (Abridged Audio Book)

From Publishers Weekly In the wake of the great zombie war, Brooks's fictional alter ego travels around the world to ask tough questions of individuals and leaders about their experience and actions before, during and after the undead menace decimated the human population. Brooks remarkably identifies and articulates the nuances and unconsidered realities of what a zombie war would look like. This intriguing "oral history" stands apart from his previous zombie-related book, The Zombie Survival Guide, as Brooks uses the postwar culture here to provide political and social commentary on a wide range of real-life individuals and institutions. An all-star cast including Alan Alda, Mark Hamill, Jürgen Prochnow, Henry Rollins, John Turturro, Rob and Carl Reiner, and many others deliver their parts with such fervor and intensity that listeners cannot help but empathize with these characters. Max Brooks acts as the interviewer, providing an inquisitive but stagnant demeanor. The abridgment keeps the story tight but struggles with the interviewer's narration during interviews. When Brooks interrupts characters to indicate that the person rolled his eyes or appeared apprehensive, his comments are often moot because the performers are already portraying such body language with their tone. http://www.amazon.com/World-War-Z-History-Zombie/dp/0739340131/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-9020980-5474563?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1194870068&sr=8-1

Pro tip: Don't post anything after the ISBN/product ID number (the part right after /dp/) in Amazon URLs, as that's just bullshit tracking.

do you have unabridged?

greygelgoog (2008-10-10)

I think the abridged version is the only version as an audio book. If you want the unabridged version you're going to have to read it.

whats the difference between abridged and unabridged copy?

damunzy (2009-06-01)

Abridged means that it was shortened for the format. Normally this is done for time concerns and pacing. From Publishers Weekly review on Amazon "The abridgment keeps the story tight but struggles with the interviewer's narration during interviews."

drunkenmixer (2013-04-18)

an unabridged version does exist. It is read by Jim Zeiger. there is an unabridged version of this torrent (with all the actors) coming out on May 14 as well but if you want to hear the Zeiger version now, you can find it here
You have to register for the site but it is free to use. I get a lot of hard to find audiobook torrents there

I just uploaded "World War Z the Lost Files", It is all the stories that were not included in this version. So, This version + "The Lost Files" = an unabridged version.
