In case you're interested in such things: I highly recommend World War Z: The Abridged Audio Book for your next road trip or long drive. I recently made a trip up to Birmingham, Alabama to visit a friend, and this audio book was a sanity saver!
Granted, it is not the complete World War Z novel (which I adore and re-read occasionally), but the voice acting is top notch, and you get all of the best chapters (except the story of what happened to North Korea, which should have been included). It's five discs long, which adds up to about 5-6 hours.
Furthermore, Max Brooks--author of WWZ and the Zombie Survival Guide--reprises his role as the interviewer. Which I think is neat.
Here's a list of the voice actors in it (you may recognize a few names):
* Max Brooks: Max Brooks
* Arthur Sinclair: Alan Alda
* Jurgen Warbrunn: Carl Reiner
* Philip Adler: Jrgen Prochnow
* Saladin Kader: Waleed Zuiater
* Joe Muhammad: Dean Edwards
* Jesika Hendricks: Michelle Kholos
* Ahmed Farahnakian: Maz Jobrani
* Todd Wainio: Mark Hamill
* T. Sean Collins: Henry Rollins
* David Allen Forbes and Paul Redeker/Xolelwa Azania: Eamonn Walker
* Ajay Shah: Ajay Naidu
* Serosha Garcia Alvarez: John Turturro
* "The Whacko": Rob Reiner
* Bob Archer: Jay O. Sanders (credited as "Jay O'Sanders")
* General Travis D'Ambrosia: Dennis Boutsikaris
* Christina Eliopolis: Becky Ann Baker
* Kwang Jingshu: Steve Park
* Nury Televadi and Tomonaga Jiro: Frank Kamai
* Ernesto Olguin: John McElroy
