Resumen del Editor

Following her explosive debut thriller Falling and its harrowing follow-up Drowning, #1 internationally bestselling author T.J. Newman is back with Worst Case Scenario.

When a pilot suffers a heart attack at 35,000 feet, a commercial airliner filled with passengers crashes into a nuclear power plant in the small town of Waketa, Minnesota, which becomes ground zero for a catastrophic national crisis with global implications.

The International Nuclear Event Scale tracks nuclear disasters. It has seven levels. Level 7 is a Major Accident, with only two on record: Fukushima and Chernobyl. There has never been a Level 8. Until now.

In this heart-stopping thriller, ordinary people—power plant employees, firefighters, teachers, families, neighbors, and friends—are thrust into an extraordinary situation as they face the ultimate test of their lives. It will take the combined courage, ingenuity, and determination of a brave few to save not only their community and loved ones, but the fate of humanity at large.

So Good

Whenever I read a TJ Newman book, I find myself asking, “Why was she ever a flight attendant?” Her writing is gripping and her storytelling is top notch. Do not hesitate to read this and her other books. Amazing. Quickly becoming a favorite author of mine.

Do you have my CD's?

I worked in the nuclear field for several years and when that jargon started I had to stop at chapter 4 and order a copy for my ex that still works in that field!
My only complaint is there should be a breath taken for a one second pause between scenes. I had to backup a few times thinking I'd accidentally skipped to the next chapter.

How A Narrator Can Kill An Amazing Book

NUCLEAR is pronounced new-clear. After the 20th or 30th time hearing the narrator pronounce it as new-cue-lar, I almost turned it off and demanded a refund from audible.

That said, the story is excellent. The narration is not good.

Catastrophe Laden Tale

Predictable story but engaging. Frankly too many, seemingly never ending obstacles for the characters to overcome. So going for poignant. The narration for the first few chapters was delivered in a staccato way which was a bit distracting. Although the narrator is an accomplished actor, it took too many chapters in before the delivery seemed less “acted” and more presentation of the story. However I did finish the book and enjoyed the results.

Gut wrenching

Uh well this was a rollercoaster of emotions!! By far the BEST TJ Newman book I’ve read. I was crying and hope and crying some more. It was action packed straight from the jump. You got to see all the different scenario happening all at once from different POVs. This book gutted me and put me back together.

My official ranking would
1. Worst Case Scenario
2. Drowning
3. Falling

Loved the narrator

This was overrated by so many, in my opinion. It's good but there's so much of the pondering on life and preciousness snd sadness that it takes away from the action. Maybe it's because of working in a hospital and disasters. And I think the dwelling on the lives sort of triggered me with working through covid in another state, driving down the road that was blocked off and no one on it. having to show ID to cross state line. I really wish all the sad thoughts wouldn't have been added. It was overdone. The part I hated and almost gave a 3 star is where they would've been using a radio ,like emergency personel and also plant workers. in the audiobook, they read it like it was a radio. so you would hear a radio come in with people talking and it took away from the book. It would've been better if reading I think.

I got the audiobook because I absolutely love that narrator. He was my favorite on Scandal and has a great voice. I was so happy to see he did narration. He doesn't disappoint.

So-so

The narrator kept mispronouncing “nuclear” and that drove me nuts. The story was ok, not 5 stars

Just awesome

T.J. Newman, an internationally bestselling author and one of my favorite new writers, has captivated me endlessly once again with her latest entertaining story, Worst Case Scenario. After discovering her work last year through Mr. Don Winslow on Twitter, I eagerly picked up her previous two thrilling novels, Falling and Drowning, and was thoroughly delighted by them. As it usually happens when I fall in love with someone’s writing, I couldn’t wait to dive into Worst Case Scenario, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint!

I pre-ordered the audiobook version immediately after its release, and yesterday, when I got the email from Audible that my purchase can be enjoyed, I had planned to listen to a few chapters. However, I was so engrossed in the story that I couldn’t stop and ended up spending eight and a half hours of my day devouring the entire audiobook, which felt like a mere blink of an eye.

The novel follows a heart-pounding scenario where a commercial airliner crashes into a nuclear power plant in the small town of Waketa, Minnesota. From there, the situation escalates into a national crisis with global implications, reaching a level of disaster that has never been witnessed before.

What truly sets this book apart is T.J. Newman’s exceptional character development. She doesn’t just focus on the disaster itself, but also on the everyday heroes who find themselves in the midst of this unimaginable situation. The power plant workers, firefighters, teachers, families, neighbors, lifelong friends, and even complete strangers become characters that I found myself deeply invested in. I felt their fears, hopes, and determination as they faced an insurmountable challenge.

American actor Joe Morton delivers a captivating performance in this unpauseable audio production. His narration of Worst Case Scenario elevates the narrative to new heights of entertainment. Morton’s powerful and dynamic voice perfectly captures the tension and emotion of each scene, drawing listeners into the story.

Known for his award-winning performances on stage and screen, including his role as Eli Pope on Scandal, Morton’s deep and resonant voice lends a natural depth to the audiobook. His ability to convey both the gravity of the situation and the humanity of the characters adds a profound emotional resonance to the story.

Worst Case Scenario is not just a thrilling read that keeps you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. It’s an epic tale of the human spirit’s strength and resilience in the face of overwhelming odds. The story leaves a lasting impact, inspiring readers to find hope and heroism even in the darkest moments.

If you’re seeking a gripping and emotionally resonant read, Worst Case Scenario should be at the top of your reading list.

I am a blind audiobook reviewer, so if you found this review interesting I hope you will consider leaving a helpful vote below. Most audiobooks I receive for free for review purposes. Thank you! Take care, stay safe, and don't forget, always listen with your heart.
