Hopefully you have the unabridged version (43 hours) rather than the abridged version (18 hours).

Humphrey Bower is also the narrator for all of the Bryce Courtenay novels, which are also very good (and since you like long books, they're also quite lengthy). I actually purchased Shantaram because he is its narrator, though as it turns out I also very much enjoyed the novel.

Thanks for that info! Yep, I got the unabridged one -- I never get an abridged version unless it's by accident.
