Hornet's Nest

The Blackout Series, Book 5

De: Bobby Akart

Narrado por: John David Farrell

When you poke the hornets' nest, ya better make dang sure you kill 'em all. If you don't, you're gonna suffer their wrath.

This fast-paced post-apocalyptic dystopian fiction series from author Bobby Akart (The Boston Brahmin series and the Prepping for Tomorrow series), has been hailed as a masterpiece of EMP survival fiction. Prepare to learn, as well as be entertained as The Blackout Series continues with Hornet's Nest.

Hornet's Nest, book five in The Blackout Series, tests the mettle of our characters. Will one success lead to devastation for them all? Is it possible for an unlikely group of heroes to band together to defeat an evil which had plagued a small community for decades? And if they are successful, how do you build a world shattered by the devastating aftereffects of a massive solar flare?

Note: this book does not contain strong language. It is intended to entertain and inform audiences of all ages, including teen and young adults. Although some scenes depict the realistic threat our nation faces from a devastating solar flare, and the societal collapse which will result in the aftermath, it does not contain graphic scenes typical of other books in the post-apocalyptic genre.

I’m a big fan of Bobby Akart’s writing style and stories. He is entertaining as well as providing insight into what might happen if the SHTF….

Fantastic series!

Just when you thought it couldn't get any more interesting, the series kicks off with nonstop action. As you weave through the separate lives of each of the characters, you can see the tension rising within their community and can't wait to find out what happens! Mr Farrell does a wonderful job in bringing the characters to life. ENJOY!!

love this series

been enjoying this series as I have time. recently had some long flights and burned right through this one. on to the next!

Glad to see Alex shine!

It's time to kick the Hornet's Nest!! The people are fed up with Ma and her followers and decide that it's time to do something about it. The Ryman's never thought they would be part of a Civil War but they are in the thick of things here! Can they take back Savannah from Ma?

Things have finally come to a head at Shiloh Ranch and everyone decides it's time to take back their town. Ma and Junior have done too much to too many people and it's time they pay. I was so happy to see Alex shine in this one. She has really come into herself and grew up a lot in this one.

Plot wise, it was really fast paced and at times intense! The Civil War was building for along time and it finally exploded in this. I was at the edge of my seat throughout and devoured this! I was a little disappointed that the war wasn't a little more..... brutal though. I thought a few more people would have gotten hurt.

In all, a great continuation on the series and makes me eager to see the next one. The ending was killer though, I'm not a fan of cliff hangers and this one was one heck of a cliffhanger!! I need the next book ASAP!!!

John David Farrell was better in this one than the last as he seemed to have gotten a feel for the characters. He was easy to listen to and was clear and concise. I will have to check out more by him.

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. This in no way affected nor influenced my thoughts.

the books keep getting better and better!

What does John David Farrell bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

John David had big shoes to fill and has held his own, while I don't agree with the choice it didn't take a way from the books at all. I would listen to him again.

Any additional comments?

i really love how bobby has tied the books in with each other and the story keeps moving, its really great to see how the main group of people have problems and can overcome and move on. I do not want to spoil the book by giving details of it. Its worth the read and you will come back and listen to it again at least 2 more times.

Right Out Of The ACW

I have them really enjoyed how American history is told and use in the story. I highly recommend this book.

This would make a great mini TV series

I was glad to be able to listen to the entire series from beginning to end.
I have all the aspects of a great drama.
It makes you think about wearing a tinfoil hat.

That's it????

Would you listen to Hornet's Nest again? Why?

No

What did you like best about this story?

The development of Ally

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

no

Any additional comments?

Good wrap up. Until the very last. I'm guessing there will be another book. If not, that sucks and I wasted my time.

great series

I really am into this series. unfortunately it was a bit predictable at times but still such a great story. I hope to see Alex kick a little more butt in the next one.

Snap! You left me hanging again!

Now that I'm all wrapped up in these characters the book ends with so many questions to be asked and no one to answer them. Jeez not even a teaser for the next one. WRITE FASTER! I'm waiting for the next book!
