The unimaginable has happened: the world has been plunged into all-out nuclear war. Sailing near the Arctic Circle, the USS Nathan James is relatively unscathed, but the future is grim and Captain Thomas is facing mutiny from the tattered remnants of his crew. With civilization in ruins, he urges those that remain - 152 men and 26 women - to pull together in search of land. Once they reach safety, however, the men and women on board realize that they are the earth's last remaining survivors.

no story

Listened to the 1st third and there was yet to be what I call a story. Also, it is written in the first person and the prose/narration was excessively verbose and haughty like the author was trying to display how clever he was with his sentence construction. Some may like this style of writing but it is not for me.

female reader impossible to listen to
Reviewed: 04-29-24
The female narrator on this story has a very strong english accent and talks. Way too fast. So when I try to listen to it at my normal playback speed of 1.4X, she is virtually unintelligible which made the listening process areal pain. I was never actually able to finish the book.
