No Surrender

Fall of Houston Series, Book 4

De: T.L. Payne

Narrado por: Shawn Compton

The battle is far from over.

Surviving each day is still a perilous struggle, and the farm may not be the safe haven Will Fontenot had hoped.

Will's homecoming to Calcasieu Parish is anything but welcoming as he comes face to face with the Blanchards, a local crime family who have taken over the town. But long-strained family ties are strengthened when Will's cousins come to the rescue.

A new community is formed as residents of Sugar Cove Road band together to protect their loved ones. As one thing leads to another, they become increasingly unable to secure their community against a much more powerful foe than the Blanchards.

With foreign fighters quickly approaching, a decision must be made: Flee with what they can carry - or stand and fight. They are outnumbered and ill-equipped for the battle that is again at their doorsteps.

The lives of everyone Will loves are on the line, and he'll do whatever it takes to protect them.

Post Apocalyptic Gold

This continuation to the Fall of Houston series is another, edge of your seat storyline. The author draws you in with stress, anger, love, and even hope. It is a must read in this series.

This is my favorite of the series, so far!!

Non-Stop Action and running for your life in this book!! Always protecting the children. But I am worried about where they ended up and what will happen next. On to book five!!

Edge of your seat

Loads of action and adventure! A real seat of your pants kinda read . Looking forward to the last book x

An embarrassing display of male ego

The previous books in the series weren't as bad, but this book has dipped into some serious male ego stroking. The series went from an end of the world fiction, to ego stroking of men. It's older, out of shape men saving the world, while the women all lose their brain cells slowly over each book, needing to be saved over and over, and in the end the main character get the pretty girl that is way out of his league.

Previous books in the series weren't this bad. Book 1 had a southern woman that hunted with her father, proving her marksmanship in book 1, and all around kick butt kind of girl to ride beside during the end of the world. The other woman, a mother that ran a homestead on her own, including raising, butchering animals, and organized a local militia on her own. This books seems to have replaced those women with a couple of 4 year old, behind cardboard cut outs of adult women, with audio clips of them saying 'How could I ever live without you' and 'Save the children". They are not the same skilled women written in the first book.

As unrealistic as a bodice ripper fiction for the portrayal of the opposite sex, but for men.

I must be a glutton for punishment because I got the whole series all at once, I am hoping the next book is better.

Weak characters are annoying

I don’t care if they are weak from lack of food because it only seems to affect the two main related characters. Others don’t seem to be weak like he/she is when they are all eating the same food. I’m also not a fan of whiney kids (7 year old? Come on!) who screw things up for everyone while the adults ponder corporal punishment then pray for forgiveness their bad thoughts. The kid deserves a beating or at least a good talking to! Seriously annoying. I’m also not a fan of characters that make the same stupid mistakes over and over all while they are talking themselves down from misguided attempts to be brave because they aren’t. Just weak. Weak characters with no backbones don’t make for good PA heroes.
