American Wasteland: The Complete Box Set

A Grid-Down, Post-Apocalyptic Saga

De: Mark Goodwin

Narrado por: Stacey Glemboski

“The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.”– John Philpot Curran

Struggling to keep her small Atlanta restaurant afloat, Jennifer Martin is blindsided when a ghost from her past resurfaces—uncovering a chilling conspiracy to depopulate America and the globe.

Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease.

Government intervention during the pandemic has weakened the economy and the social fabric of the nation. Nevertheless, bureaucrats and lawmakers refuse to change course and double down on the failed policies that have crippled the country. Rising prices and labor shortages are pushing Jennifer Martin’s small Atlanta restaurant to the brink of destruction.

A bitter red pill.

After years of being out of touch, Lucas McIntosh shows up at Jennifer’s doorstep. He tells her about his dishonorable discharge from the Army and about the purge designed to cleanse the military of patriots and conservatives. New laws serve to exacerbate the growing food shortage in America. Paired with crippling inflation, scarcity triggers food riots across the country.

And a fatal false flag.

Shortly after the riots are brought under control, a cyber-attack brings down the electrical grid sending the country into total chaos. The assault is blamed on a group of malcontents who believe the last US election was rigged. But Lucas believes this narrative is only a ruse intended to further divide the fractured nation.

With so many already in dire straits, the power outage pushes people to the edge. The crisis brings out the worst in humanity, turning average citizens into desperate savages. Jennifer and her small group of friends will have to stick together and be smart if they have any hope of surviving the turmoil. Grab your copy now—before it’s too late.

As with all works by Mark Goodwin, this book contains no profanity and no embarrassing sex scenes. However, if you're offended by conservative principles and references to Scripture, this book might not be for you.
