The hardscrabble folks of Troublesome Creek have to scrap for everything - everything except books, that is. Thanks to Roosevelt's Kentucky Pack Horse Library Project, Troublesome's got its very own traveling librarian, Cussy Mary Carter. Cussy's not only a book woman, however, she's also the last of her kind, her skin a shade of blue unlike most anyone else. Not everyone is keen on Cussy's family or the Library Project, and a Blue is often blamed for any whiff of trouble.

Hooked me from the beginning. Fascinating subject matter. Narrator very believable. The author told an amazing story that is not widely known. Loved it!

The Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched first-hand 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 30 million souls, to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet.

Awesome, but sadly missing a lot of the story

I absolutely love WWZ, it's undeniably one of my favorite books. When I saw that it was listed here I was literally like "ZOMGLOLWANTNAO!!!1!1one1!". However, I didn't check to see if the recording was complete and unabridged. I was confused when one of my favorite stories in the book was passed over, and my confusion turned into a tiny heartache when I looked again and saw that the recording was indeed abridged.
While this really doesn't diminish the enjoyment for someone new to the story (and I DO 100% suggest this audiobook for anyone who enjoys a good yarn about the tenacity of the human spirit or the relentless hunger of the walking dead) it made me very sad that the book that I had read and loved was only mostly here. Regardless, listen to it, and if you like it pick up the real book too and read the entire story of the Zombie War.
