About this listen

Post-Apocalyptic Fiction by N.C. Reed

Clayton Sanders left home the minute he had his high school diploma in hand. He waited that long only because the Army wouldn't accept him without one. Now, 10 years later, he's home. Home with no warning, no advance notice, no anything after being gone 10 years with almost no contact with his family. Home carrying a secret that is burning him up from the inside. A secret that has pushed him to the brink, forcing him to become a criminal in order to be where his family needs him to be, even though they don't realize it yet. Because Clayton knows something they don't. Something that hasn't happened, but will. Something that will burn everything it touches. And change the face of the world forever.

Friendly Fire, Book Six:

Friendly fire. Two words no soldier ever wants to hear.

Having ended the threat of his father's oldest enemy and the group he controlled, Clayton Sanders believes he can finally put his feet up a bit and relax. Figuratively of course, since there is no relaxing on a farm and ranch. But some peace and quiet will be greatly appreciated and welcome.

Too bad he won't get it.

With the remainder of his old team on their way, Clay starts to think he might be able to breathe easier. Sure, they did say they were running from a big problem out west, but that's out west, right? No reason to worry about that. True, there's still that nutty end times guy on the radio, but he's more comic relief than anything else at this point. Still, it does remind him that he has heard no news from outside their immediate area, forcing him to rethink his initial plans for isolation of the farm from others. On the whole, however, it seems that trouble is a distant problem for the moment.

But his friends find trouble much closer to home as they make their journey to join Clay and the rest at the ranch, uncovering a threat that Clay hadn't known existed. Their arrival also awakens old prejudices and attitudes that will lead to a fracture among the ranch residents, and that fracture will in turn bring vicious enmity among people who had been friends only days before.

That fracture will do what multiple attacks by greater numbers has failed to accomplish; divide a strong and independent group of survivors while taking their attention from the real threats to their safety, even as the farm takes the first steps in reaching out to others, attempting to help the town of Jordan to get on its feet, able to feed and defend itself once more.

After all they've been through, after all they've endured and dealt with, conflict from within may well be what breaks them. The damage that comes from within, friendly fire, could well do more to cripple them than anything that has come from outside thus far. One thing is universal it seems; friendly fire....isn't.

A little slow in the beginning because of world building, but you will cheer and route for the main protagonist.

I enjoyed this book very much, in fact I read all the books in the series so far. I enjoyed the main protagonist and how he had to whip his family into shape. I originally thought this was a book about Tennessee rednecks, I was wrong yes the people are from Tennessee, but they aren’t rednecks the cast is totally integrated and richly drawn and each has their own personality. You will cheer for the heroes and be very happy when the villains get their butts kicked. Read the book in the series I find it highly enjoyable, you will as well.

Needs Christopher Lane to Narrate

I enjoy the stories because the bad guys always lose and sometimes that's nice instead of being dragged along as the good guy gets pummeled over and over until the very end kind of like a Bruce Willis movie. The author tends to spend too much time certain events and tends to drag it along to the point where you want to fast forward to get by it and tends to also over describe situations that doesn't need it. the narrator was okay in the first book but as you go on he starts to become irritating to listen to and I really wish Christopher Lane would narrate these books like he did for the story "Odd Billy Todd" (which I recommend for anybody).

Good book I liked it although..........

I have read every book in this series and this one seemed to take to long on the the hard headed views, of old people in homosexuality. A debate I care nothing about so I have a hard time wanting to keep going . For that reason I didn't like it as much as the rest of the series. My favorite of N.C Reed is still odd Billy todd.

Keep Going

If you haven't listened to the previous books do so, if you have and are wondering if you should continue.., I have made it to book 8 and I recommend you keep going. N. C. Reed is a VERY good storyteller. I really like the nararator too. Clay's voice, the old man's voice, Brick... This guy does a very good job. If you come out with a book 9 keep the narrator. I don't want to go into detail because now that I am finished with the books they run together and I don't want to give anything away. I will say if you enjoyed them a little, I would keep listening. I miss the Sander's family and would very much like to see book 9. Now I am listening to one of those bestseller books with thousands of reviews and to me it does not compare to this series. I want a good story with likable and unlikeable characters this series has that and more.

Recommendation - A Good Series to Listen or Read

I liked the Kindle and am always impatiently waiting for the Audible. Yes I purchase both as the Kindle comes out first :-) People who are interested in apocalypse CME/EMP disasters will enjoy reading and or listening to this series, which Book 1 hooks you from the start. As always, cannot wait for the next instalment :-)

this book was much better.

w this book puts a lot of things together and helped to develop the whole series. It leaves you in a bit of a cliffhanger which will be good. I will get the next book as a matter of fact I already

Beginnings were decent but starting to melt down..

This series started ok but has become more of a rant by the author about political and social veiws. I finally turned this book off because I could not listen to any more ranting and I no longer cared about how the book ends. It probably ends with a cliff hanger like the others do. I will not be listening to any other books in this series because I no longer care what happens to the characters. I can say that people like the main characters in this book will destroy what is good in this world sooner than any natural disaster.
