Publisher's summary

In some ways, post-Collapse life at Pierce Point resembles the everyday normalcy that Grant and others still hoped would return. The community is organized and humming along smoothly, the young guys on the Team are partnering off with local “Team Chicks”, and Grant's daughter has found a boyfriend. For most, the new reality has been accepted and a calm, self-sustaining groove is setting in. For others, though, life is far from normal. Special Forces Ted returns with an offer that cannot be refused. In the blink of an eye, Grant Matson has another title he can add to father-of-the-year and prepper-in-chief: Lieutenant Grant Matson, Commander of the 17th Irregulars.

Grant and the Team are whisked away to Marion Farm, where they will train civilians and be trained to become a special squad in a Special Forces guerrilla group. The slower, simple life at Pierce Point is about to disappear to make way for a community that is well-trained and battle-ready, posed to fight the Loyalist opposition. This cannot happen fast enough, though. Gangs are growing steadily and the government is becoming a bigger threat to freedom and the nation. Violence is turning into an everyday occurrence outside of Pierce Point, and it is only a matter of time before the peaceful community will need to protect itself from external dangers. Grant feels the weight on his shoulders as he now needs to protect not just his family, but the entire community, and possibly, all of Washington State.

Could have been added on to the last book

The first few books were great. The last few just seem like a stretch to make it to 10 books in the series...

A refreshing dose of reality.

The whole series of book so far has been entertaining and informative. It does seem to move slow at times, but its necessary to set up the story. I have really enjoyed this series because in teotwawki book club most seem to highlight either violence, gear or politics. 299 days has all of that also but expands into different facets of a reality based future that is truly easy to believe and scary.

Great story told by a top narrator

Kevin Pierce gives a great performance. His ability to vocally "act out" the dialogue adds a significant definition of enjoyment to the story line.

17th irregulars deserves 17 stars

Great storyline. The 17th Irregulars has plot twists no one would expect. Can't wait for the next one.

Audio edition is amazing.

The audio editions to this series are just as good as the written versions. Pierce verbally brings to life the cast of characters in this story line with his personal flair and does an excellent job. His tone changes from character to character stimulates your imagination and allows you to visualize the character in your mind as you listen to each chapter.
I listen to these books while driving to and from work, while shopping, and standing in the DMV line. What a marvel of sanity it provides.

Love it

Glenn Tate just kills it time after time. Keep up the great work. Can't wait to hear the next one.

terrific series. grammar needs help, but this series really gives you something to think about.

Incredibly mesmerizing book

This book was great could not stop listening to it. Can't wait to listen to the next one.

good book to series

Great book, it was a little slow in some chapters, but overall good book. and looking forward to next book.

love this story

sad I'm getting close to the end... Love the partial collapse concept probably more realistic than the total collapse written about in all others.
