No Time for Mourning

The Borrowed World, Book 4

By: Franklin Horton

Narrated by: Kevin Pierce

In the Borrowed World Series, America is brought to its knees by coordinated terror attacks against the infrastructure. After spending weeks walking across a violent and horrific landscape to reach his family, Jim Powell hoped they could weather this storm on their secluded Appalachian farm. They had prepared for this. They had armed for this. They could live without power and fuel. What happens, though, when the same qualities that drew Jim to his isolated valley begin to attract another armed group looking for a place to hide from the unrest of a starving nation?

Franklin Horton's Borrowed World Series has been a best seller in the categories of Post-Apocalyptic and Dystopian Science Fiction. He has been interviewed extensively for podcasts and for print media on the topic of preparedness. The series is noted for its realistic portrayal of how average Americans might be affected by societal collapse.

Great real life seires !

We like to think that the hearts of men are good, but everything changes in desperate times! Kevin Pierce is great! No problem finishing it in 3 days!

Edge of your seat entertainment!!!

Another peeked into the lives of Jim, Gary and Randy and their families. On the edge of your seat type excitement which makes me crave the next book.

Kept me on the edge of my seat!

Really loved the characters in this story. I found myself rooting for all the decent characters! Loved the humor parts.

Horton Left me hanging for the next book!!

Would you consider the audio edition of No Time for Mourning to be better than the print version?

I feel that Franklin Horton is a even and steady author. I love all his books the same. At the end of each book I want more.

Which scene was your favorite?

I love all his conflicts with characters. Each one is different and how they deal with them. I love that the main characters are not always winning. Sometimes more than not you lose in life.

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

My husband had to ask me to take my earbuds out at the dinner table.

Any additional comments?

Waiting for book 5!

Book Two....now you're hooked!

I intend this review to cover the entire Borrowed World series. Point of fact, I could not stop listening to them. I think Franklin Horton's work here is fantastic. Nicely paced, full of action, with well developed antagonists,to say I was pleasantly surprised is an understatement. I appreciate how Mr. Horton stays away from politics and religion (for the large part), and the motivation of the protagonist is universal enough that any reader can slip into his skin. Good job, I look forward to seeing the "Valley Tribe" fares through the winter! Write more, Mr. Horton! Quit your day job and write more!
