In Boston, a battalion of light infantry struggles to maintain order as a new disease turns people into sadistic, laughing killers. As the numbers of infected grow, the battalion loses control, and the soldiers find themselves fighting for their lives against the very people they once swore an oath to protect. During the ensuing collapse, the lost battalion learns the Army is still holding out in Florida, which has been cleared of the infected.

Story
For dinosaurs, it was a big rock. For humans: Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). When the Earth is hit by the greatest CME in recorded history (several times larger than the Carrington Event of 1859), the combined societies of the planet's most developed nations struggle to adapt to a life thrust back into the Dark Ages. In the United States, the military scrambles to speed the nation's recovery on multiple fronts including putting down riots, establishing relief camps, delivering medical aid, and bringing communication and travel back on line. Just as a real foothold is established in retaking the skies (utilizing existing commercial aircraft supplemented by military resources and ground control systems), a mysterious virus takes hold of the population, spreading globally over the very flight routes that the survivors fought so hard to rebuild.

Story
My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

Publisher's summary
The road has been punishing.
Traveling from Boston to ill-fated Fort Drum, then on to Philadelphia, and again to Mount Weather and Fort Stewart, the First Battalion, 55th Infantry Regiment, 10th Mountain Division (Light) is run out, blown out, and virtually waiting for death's embrace. Now at the border of Georgia and Florida, the battalion receives new orders:
Encamp at Moody Air Force Base...
...and call in the Klowns.
Lieutenant Colonel Harry Lee knows this will spell the end of the battalion. But executing the mission could mean the the difference between life and death...not for the 1/55th, but for what remains of the United States of America.
Lee took an oath when he enlisted with the US Army. But he hadn't thought it was a suicide contract....

Story
In 2009 Clinton Romesha of Red Platoon and the rest of the Black Knight Troop were preparing to shut down Command Outpost Keating, the most remote and inaccessible in a string of bases built by the US military in Nuristan and Kunar in the hope of preventing Taliban insurgents from moving freely back and forth between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Three years after Keating's construction, the army was finally ready to concede what the men on the ground had known immediately: It was simply too isolated and too dangerous to defend.

Story
From June 1967 to June 1968, Tom Johnson accumulated an astonishing 1,600 flying hours piloting the UH-1 "Iroquois" - better known as the "Huey" - as part of the famous First Air Cavalry Division. His battalion was one of the most decorated units of the Vietnam War, and helped redefine modern warfare. Johnson's riveting memoir takes us into key battles and rescue missions, including those for Hue and Khe Sanh. In harrowing detail, he tells of being shot down in the battle of A Shau Valley, of surviving enemy attacks during the Tet Offensive, and of a death-defying nighttime river rescue.

They were the Savages. Raiders from our distant past. Elites who left Earth to create tailor-made utopias aboard the massive lighthuggers that crawled through the darkness between the stars. But the people they left behind on a dying planet didn't perish in the dystopian nightmare the Savages had themselves created: they thrived, discovering faster-than-light technology and using it to colonize the galaxy ahead of the Savages, forming fantastic new civilizations that surpassed the wildest dreams of Old Earth.

The battlefield was the Panjwayi Valley, a densely packed warren of walled compounds that doubled neatly as enemy bunkers.

He raised an army against those who took everything from him. They should have picked their enemies more carefully. Five centuries from now, on a remarkably Earthlike planet that is mankind's sole colony in space, religious fanatics called the "Salafi Ikhwan" have murdered the uncle of former colonel Patrick Hennessey. That was their first mistake, because uncle was rich and Hennessey was rather a good colonel. But they also murdered Hennessey's wife, Linda, and their three small children, and that was their worst mistake for she was the only restraint Hennessey had ever accepted.

A strong and also sad ending
..to an absolutely amazing series.
Sad to hear about Joe passing, he will be missed.
I enjoyed the realism and attention to detail. Joe's experience with the police is clearly evident throughout the series. RC Bray returns for this final chapter and, as usual, never fails to deliver a great performance!

Loved it!
I’ve been listenin to this series for years now and it’s as awesome as ever. While it might not get the fan far of the Commune or Arisen series, it should. Craig DiLouie never lets you down so don’t hesitate to get this series or any of his others narrated by the fantastic as ever R.C. Bray.

Wraps it up
As violent and gory and gross as this series could be, I found it strangely calming on audio, no doubt thanks to Mr Bray. Great character voices. Story ended well, as well as it could anyway.

Man!!! This book series was fire!!!
This is one of my Top 3!!!
1. The Arisen series
2. The Extension cycle
3. The Retreat
And can we job bow down and give R.C Bray his props for being the best narrator of all time.
I mean this man can read Charlottes Web and make it intensely good. This author did a hell of writing of this book series. Definite recommend.

Retreat Closes Out Strong
Very much enjoyed this final chapter in 'the Retreat' series. Mad clowns is such a great spin on the zombie genre and following the exploits of the remains of the 10th Mountain Division through the pandemic landscape was an exciting thrill ride. Craig Dilouie started the series and Stephen Knight took over to finish it. Both did an excellent job with the material. RC Bray narrated the Audible version with his usual excellence. My only compliant is that I hated to see it end.

Finally Got to Finish a Series I started 5 years Ago
Bray's performance is outstanding, as usual. I enjoyed this book a lot. Solid post-apocalyptic story with a fitting ending. I'd recommend to anyone that's a fan of the genre.
