Fast paced post apocalyptic thriller. I enjoyed both books so far in the series because of its realism. By realism, I mean that nothing goes to plan. That makes is more accessible to me at least. I also enjoyed an overall theme and plot line connecting the books so far, hopefully that lasts over the whole series. It's a good fun escapist read.

Second in Molles' Remaining series. Enjoyed the action and the plot advancement, but gave this lower marks due to lack of editing. This installment had more than its share of missing words, misspellings, and incorrect usages - enough to distract.

Awesome book. Way better than the 1st one. The betrayal was surprising and intelligently placed. I would recommend this book to anyone

What a big ball of "eh" this series is developing into. I found myself scanning and not really reading. I want to know what happens, but don't want to dedicate that much time to finding out. Eh, eh, eh.

Really enjoyed it. A Iot of action, at times perhaps too much. It didn't give me time to breath. Looking forward to book 3.

The writing is still consistently terrible. Tons of cliché sayings such as "lee kept those cards close to his chest," "The crowd grumbled disapprovingly," "eyes became sharp daggers" ; as well as overly-inclusive mixed metaphor descriptions like the following: "Lee regarded Bus who stood like an angered god with his brawny arms crossed over his chest and a deep redness taking over his olive complexion." Not even making that last one up. And The Remaining (Aftermath) is liberally salted and peppered with statements like this.
When (If) D.J. Molles' writing skill catches up with his enthralling action-movie plots, I'm going to be terribly excited to follow this author like a rabid Infected, clawing my way to get my hands on his brain! The last 4th of the book glued my hands to the kindle device and prevented me from dropping it until I finished the book! Lots of action, lots of stuff and things!
And if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get sucked into the third book now.

Definitely entertaining. The first third is a little iffy, but the author hit his stride and it got a lot better.
