I got this, for me, new series surrounding John Beck simply because I don’t think the team of Abrahams and Pierce can be beat, especially in the Apocalyptic genre. Abrahams characters are the “Jack Reacher(s)” of the Prepper World. Always a great story in a world built on the anticipated destruction of our current one that is consistently finding a new way to swirl a toilet bowl. Whether that’s through financial debt, created virus, coronal mass ejection or EMP, all due to the corrupt politics, willful sin and liberal attitudes that would rather excuse itself then do what it takes to get back on course, like the fall of the Roman empire, we are on track for these exact types of experiences. The 2019-2021 riots and looting, violent carjackings, home invasions and easy targeting of the Innocents, elderly and disabled proves the point that Some Kind Of Change is coming. Heartlessness was encouraged during Covid lockdowns by keeping people from interacting due to fear or selfishness. What people used to be afraid to say face2face no longer matters because most of those faces were covered with masks and the rest, usually with some version of a cellphone. Everyone can feel the “anger soup” we’re swimming in.
So does the story of a man with a temper, being harassed by another basically evil man and his minions, threatening his family sound realistic? Yes!! Does that same man go on a mission to find his kidnapped daughter, helping others and killing people who victimize others sound reasonable? Absolutely!! He’s doing whatever he can to stop what happened to him from being repeated. Got the next 2 books already…moving on now🤪
