Publisher's summary

This is the destiny of those who stand for others. Their honor will be bought in blood and pain. The Camp Ryder Hub is broken. Lee is nowhere to be found, and his allies are scattered across the state, each of them learning that their missions will not be as easy as they thought. Inside the walls of Camp Ryder, a silent war is brewing, between those few that still support Lee's vision of rebuilding, and the majority that support Jerry's desire for isolation. But this war will not remain silent for long. And in this savage world, everyone will have to make a choice. To keep their morals. Or keep their lives.

Good Series, but SLOW in places

very good series however there are places in each book where too much time is spent trying to describe what the character is FEELING. also there are sometimes too much rationalizing why Lee does what he does. it slows the rhythm of the scene. it is still one of the best apocalyptic series I've read. I recommend to anyone you like stories of this nature.

I'd you've heard any of the other books,you know

it was another amazing chapter in a wonderful series. I'm starting book five right now

Amazing

I'm a huge fan of Iron Druid and The Dresden files, didn't think I'd like these books! I'm hands down addicted! The narrator is one of the best in the game. The Writer paints an amazing picture, never a dull moment even during long winded speeches. These are a must read, give it a chance.

Excellent book. Lots of things brewing.

What did you love best about The Remaining: Fractured?

Fractured takes everything set up is the previous book and starts acting on it. This book goes back to book 1's survival roots in many ways, but still have the over arching plot points established in Refugees.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Remaining: Fractured?

I'm not going to spoil it, but there's a point where Captain Harden's in dire straights, and goes through hallucinatory spells and finds himself witnessing the probable demise of one of his newest comrades.

Which scene was your favorite?

The Standoff where Captain Harden outmaneuvers his captors.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Buck Up!

Any additional comments?

If you've finished book three, than you probably don't need much encourage to pick up this book. Refugees didn't have a cliffhanger. It had a rock slide of plot twists that's probably sent you over the edge. Keep going, it's well worth it.

top tier

I've been through a lot of different zombie series some of the best like "After it happened" "Adrian's Undead diary" "Daybreak" just to name a few and now I am adding "The Remaining" as one of the absolute best zombie series out there captain Lee Hardin is a goddamn hero I just love this series can't wait to start the next one

Molles is killing me with suspense

“Fractured”, the next installment in the remaining series takes place over just a few days despite being longer than many of the other books before it. The story picks up where 'Refugees' ends but only moves the story along incrementally leaving another big cliffhanger for the reader to chew on. Fast paced, gritty and gory this book will leave you wanting more of the series but make sure you read the others first to make sure you’re up on the story!

As always Mr. Rummel does a great job bringing the story to life.

Great Story - can't wait for #5

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes - any post-apocalyptic/survivalist fan should listen to this series

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Any additional comments?

Some of the characters voices were almost too similar, but that did not impair my enjoyment of this series in any way

Story gets deeper and deeper

What did you love best about The Remaining: Fractured?

Harper, Larouche (sp?), and Jim are really believable as they develop. All are trying to do their best and aspects of who they were in their past lives are in tension with who they have to be now. It's actually really excellent character development. Most readers will probably find themselves identifying strongly with one or the other. They are all sort of neither good nor bad exactly, just surviving.

What did you like best about this story?

I would have to say Larouche's story.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Any additional comments?

These books are REALLY violent. Like down to the level of what anatomy is getting severed/destroyed/crushed. Doesn't really bother me but if you are someone who gets queasy some of the fight scenes will turn you off.

I like the way that the strike teams don't automatically become special forces. We are constantly reminded that they are not trained, are disorganized etc.

The fact that the Camp Ryder citizens become like a chorus in a Greek drama starts to strain believability. They almost behave like a part of zombie video game where you have to make sure your camp is fed, watered, satisfied etc.

Jerry is not a very compelling character. The author clearly doesn't like politicians but the idea that Jerry could take over just by modulating his voice and playing to the crowd is kind of thin, see above.

A whole lot of twists

Just when you think you see what's coming he throws a twist you dont expect

Great writing, great delivery.

DJ Molles wrote an awesome thriller that will keep you gritting your teeth and make your heart ache.
Christian Rumle maybe the only person that can accurately convey this story. His oration is wonderfully passionate and characters become really people.
