Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Publisher's Summary
"The end was near." Voices from the Zombie War.
The Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched firsthand experiences of the survivors from those apocalyptic years, traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of thirty million souls to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet.
He recorded the testimony of men, women, and sometimes children who came face-to-face with the living - or at least the undead - hell of that dreadful time. World War Z is the result. Never before have we had access to a document that so powerfully conveys the depth of fear and horror, and also the ineradicable spirit of resistance, that gripped human society through the plague years.

A different kind of tale entirely..
Totally different from the movie, in probably a good way..? I didn't hate the movie as such.. but now I kind of want them to make a movie based on this book. *shakes fist at Hollywood *
Took me a chapter or two to get into the style of this book, then I was hooked. Great narrators, some big names in there too, although some of the smaller characters I wasn't sure they'd nailed the Chinese or.French accent say.
Overall a really delicious listen, I listened on the bus, at home, trying to get to sleep, at the gym, getting ready to go out, everywhere I could cram some time in to finish it. I liked the interview style of the book because if your brain tunes out for a while you don't miss anything too major in the plot.
Just to let you know, I work for Audible, but the views expressed in this review are 100% my own.

why the cast change?
i this a book i come back at least twice a year but this time around its not world war z i knew and loved ....you had it right the first time....now? not so much ... the battle of yonkers was some of my all time favourite part of the book and you replaced mark hamill WHY?? im at a loss of words i love this book but i dont think ill be listening to it again .....
and anyone who is trashing this because they wanted the book from the "movie" and i use the term movie very loosely just go watch the movie and stop harping on about it the movie was a let down to anyone who loves the book

Loved the story a lot, narration above average
Although not as star studded as the other rendition of World War Z, this production is fantastic and I have listened to the book a few times.
The story surprisingly had much more depth to it than I thought and the movie really did it a disservice. There were quite a few chapters where it made me think about systems and practices we have rooted in society. Saying that, the story is primarily about zombies taking over the world, and the pacing was great and did not get bogged down with hidden meaning.
For the most part the narration was great. With a large cast some accents were... pretty bad. The Australian chapter particularly stands out to me as being rough. I read this book multiple times so it didn't impact my reading of it, however be aware that the narration for some chapters are a bit so/so. If I were allowed to give half stars I think 3.5 for performance would be pretty fair.
Overall a great read and I recommend it to fans of the genre.
