We Who Remain

By: Jacqueline Druga

Narrated by: Andrew B. Wehrlen

Length: 5 hrs and 50 mins

Publisher's summary

It happens on a routine red-eye from Las Vegas to New York. Just as the plane breaks the early morning sky, in a blink of an eye, 144 passengers onboard flight 6520 die. There is no rhyme or reason. Experts scramble to find an explanation on how and why those on Flight 6520 met their demise so quickly and violently.

It is hurriedly explained as a terror attack to the public, but General Buford Cane knows better. He has spent his entire career dedicated to the investigation and prevention of globe-threatening events. Behind the scenes, authorities are baffled as to what has happened, and against the General’s warning, they soon dismiss it as an isolated phenomenon.

He knows there's more. The plane and the death of the passengers are a prelude to something much bigger. An event is on the horizon. An anomaly that can and will wipe out every single living being from the face of the Earth. Extinction is imminent unless something is done.

There is no way to stop it. Time is running out. The only option that General Cane has is to devise a way to save as many people as possible before the event occurs. It is his mission to stop the human race from meeting the same fate as those onboard Flight 6520. A mission he cannot fail.

Loved this!

I don't normally care for male narrators but I really enjoyed this narrator. He brought the characters alive and added humor!

I loved the comparison to the movie Night of the comet too!

I’m in love with this story.

The narrator is awesome! I love the story. There is humor, sadness, love, just draws you in. I highly recommend this story!

Great Story

As a plane is landed by the first officer with all aboard are deceased. What happened to them. As some of the family meet while waiting to find out what happened they become close and are determined to find out what happen. This was a great listen. Well worth the credit.


This book was given to me for an honest review.

Loved it

I loved this story back in the 80s and I love this expanded re-imagining. It's definitely more than the cult classic so if you want to re-visit Night of the Comet and see where the story goes, this is a must have. Recommended.

I did find the narrator read too quickly so listened to it at 0.90 speed and that worked well.

Loved it!

I love disaster/distopian type stories and I found this one to be unique and a fun ride. The story moves along quickly and the characters were likable. Sprinkle in some suspense and near misses and you've got a fun story.

The best disappearance act

This audiobook will catch you from the beginning and not let you go. It is pretty awesome! I love that it takes place in Cleveland and other local communities around that area as many post apocalyptic books take place in the larger cities not Cleveland. I found it fascinating that our main characters are neighbours in a semi detached to each other and knew hardly anything about each other. It got me to thinking how many people throughout the world actually live like this. At times, I also laughed at the government and how they were reacting through this whole thing. However, I thought it was quite realistic. I found that we knew little about our main characters and I like that. This audiobook was more about the disappearance and the science fiction rather than the characters. I loved the landscape built by the author and continued along by the narrator rather than the characters. This was my second or third book listen to by this narrator and it was awesome! His voice is so great. He did a great job voicing our characters while also lending a shoulder to the authors universe. This was a short and great listen for me. Do yourself a favour if you’re a post apocalyptic and conspiracy lover and pick this one up because you will fly through it and also love it.

Interesting Story

Interesting story but the narration wore on me. Narrator clipped out the dialogue in a irritating manner. Sorry to say, I'll pass on purchasing books by this narrator

Good apocalypse book

This is your normal end of the world book in a lot of ways. It's an enjoyable read. The plot moves along quickly, as it is less than 6 hours long. The narrator is great. There were several points where I thought descriptions of death got a little too graphic, but horror isn't my normal read.

Premise sounded good

The premise sounded good but the book just could not hold my attention. I'm not sure why. I did have to slow down the narration as Mr. Wehrlen talks very fast. I wouldn't say this book is bad or that the narrator was bad. It just wasn't for me.
