I’ve read the following books and loved them:
Cell – Stephen King
World War Z – Max Brooks
The Roam – Cormac McCarthy
I prefer the narrative of Cell to the interview format of WWZ. Can anyone make any recommendations on which books I should go to next? In particular I would like it if they are available on Audio CD, but I read paper novels too.
Yes, I too like the good ole vampire novels. I don’t mine vampire hero’s. I really liked "Interview with a Vampire." But I like the Vampire Villians, like "Salem’s Lot" and "Dracula"
But I like Zombie Apocalypse best.
One Second After by William Forstchen – apocalyptic.
I Am Legend by Richard Matheson – zombie/vampire
The Strain by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan – zombie/vampire
The Stand by Stephen King – apocalyptic.
Just finished The Strain, and it was great. Don’t let the vampires turn you off. This book rescues the vampire from his new sparkly persona and returns him to the monster he was meant to be.

I’ll second (third?) The Stand. I act all snooty about what I read sometimes, but seriously, I’ve read it at least five times.
If you are at all interested in graphic novels and comic books, you might like The Walking Dead written by Robert Kirkman. It’s a post-zombie-apocalypse story that’s been running for 60+ issues. It’s most often described as a tale of "survival horror." Black and white art and really interesting characters.
