About this listen
In a steel-and-lead-encased bunker 20 feet below the basement level of his house, a soldier waits for his final orders. On the surface, a plague ravages the planet, infecting over 90% of the populace. The bacterium burrows through the brain, destroying all signs of humanity and leaving behind little more than base, prehistoric instincts. The infected turn into hyper-aggressive predators, with an insatiable desire to kill and feed. Someday soon, the soldier will have to open the hatch to his bunker, and step out into this new wasteland, to complete his mission: Subvenire refectus. To rescue and rebuild.
The Remaining is the first book in the best-selling series, which tells a gritty tale of survival, perseverance and fighting to get back what has been lost.

People in other reviews said there are inconsistencies. I probably just flossed over those, haven't thought of any that mattered.
I've read a lot of apocalypse stories, and this one is up there with the best actually.
It may not be the most realistic premise for a story. The army thing is hilarious, the plague is so weird it's kind of cool. But those things are not really important. What is, is the ambiance of the story. And that's where this book excels and makes me happy.
The characters are real in a way that I love. They fear and fret and make jokes and have bad dreams. They are annoyed with each other and try to make things work.
Thanks to that I really care what happens.
This was a great read, I'm going to move on with the next one right now.
Non stop super exciting

Where does The Remaining rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
These books are ok, if i was busy and had little time spare i would not get but had 2 weeks with time to fill travelling all over the place so got through all 4 booksAny additional comments?
It is a zombie twist book which is enjoyable, plots twists are a bit flat and disappointing really, for such a super solider he is a bit dim at times but it is humanity i suppose but really for such a job he has he is always lacking control..... but overall i enjoyed the book even if a bit weaker than other zombie booksNot Bad, have spare credits why not get it.

Would you try another book written by D. J. Molles or narrated by Christian Rummel?
I will probably get the next book and read it. Wasn't happy with where/how it ended and would like to see what happens next. Found it very hard to settle into the narration - it was jerky, over dramatic and irritating.How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
I would have actually had an ending, so that it could be a stand alone novel and people could have a choice about reading the next book, rather than feeling that they paid for a whole book but only got half a book. Feel pressed into reading the next book.Would you be willing to try another one of Christian Rummel’s performances?
Absolutely not.Was The Remaining worth the listening time?
Because of the irritating narration, and the frustrating "ending" I'm actually not sure. I finished the book feeling irritated and cheated.Cliffhanger alert

1.the weak defenceless ones who end up being a love interest and need constant rescuing and reassurance , no different to a child.
2.the butch lesbian type who will also need saving at some point, usually because she thinks she is equal to a man but finds out that(of course) she needs his protection and common sense
3. the mother, older and completely nurturing of everyone, will care for every one but give "tough love" when needed.
writers, please speak to some actual women for ideas
Great story ...but...
