![]() ![]() I expected to get the abridged version, narrated by Max Brooks and a cast of great actors, since Google told me that was the only version available. I'm disappointed with this because I didn't look closely enough at the product description. Okay, before I get to the main body of the review, the onus lies with me. Haven't finished it yet but I really liked the smuggler, spy, little girl and soldier short stories. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? I have no idea how accurate they were but it was great listening to these fictional people recount their stories from different countries. It made the apocalypse feel like it just wasn't isolated in America. ![]() What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book? ![]() Since it is mostly made up of short stories, I can just play back the story I was listening to or just let it finish and start a new chunk. Its format was really enjoyable and I can listen to any part just by itself. Don't get me wrong those are fun but the seriousness and tragedy of these stories made me care about these people. After reading the Zombie Survival Guide, these short stories really captured the urgency and seriousness of a wide spread plague epidemic rather than a gung-ho kid's wet dream. World War Z felt realistic as much as a fictional world with zombie in it can be. What did you love best about World War Z? ![]()
