Publisher's summary

An EMP is a high-tech means of killing people the old fashioned way - through starvation, disease, and societal collapse. (Dr. Peter Vincent Pry)

They never saw it coming.

The most technologically advanced missile defense system in the world...Thousands of eyes, both human and artificial intelligence trained on the Axis of Evil - North Korea and Iran.

The one direction they didn't look was up.

Nuclear Armageddon hangs over America like a mighty sword as the Lone Star Series continues with book two, Beyond Borders.

American political leaders failed to heed the warnings as two bullies of the world unite. North Korea and Iran - the Axis of Evil - bring the battle to American soil.

Most of the country is without power, and the new president must decide whether to retaliate and risk escalation of hostilities or focus on recovery to minimize loss of life.

Through careful, prudent planning and protection of their power grid, the state of Texas emerged relatively unscathed from the EMP attack. But what now?

New borders are defined.

Americans will try to cross them.

Texans will defend them.

Author Bobby Akart masterfully intertwines historical fact with plausible fiction in this postapocalyptic EMP thriller, Beyond Borders.

The Lone Star Series is a thought-provoking, gut-wrenching look into a postapocalyptic country devastated by nuclear destruction.

Would you be ready to make the tough decisions to protect your family and survive?

Author's note regarding PG-13 rating: The Lone Star Series does not contain strong language. It is intended to entertain and inform audiences of all ages, including teens and young adults. Although some scenes depict the realistic threat our nation faces from an EMP attack and nuclear destruction, and the societal collapse which will result in the aftermath, it does not contain graphic scenes typical of other books in the postapocalyptic genre. I believe more of our young people need to lead a preparedness lifestyle. Studies show that our millennials do not have any of the basic survival skills. By writing this series free of vulgarities and gratuitous sexual innuendo, I've intended it to be suitable for everyone. Thanks.

Outstanding series!

Bobby Akart delivers another terrific series. Can’t wait for book 3!

This was my first book I’ve purchased which was performed by Sean Runnette. Simply outstanding delivery.

Well written, well thought out!

Mr. Akart thought of every contingency in this series. He covers all the bases with members of the Armstrong family. Family trying to come home from opposite ends of the world. Trouble in Texas, even on the plains, there's no place that isn't touched by the disaster.

I will eagerly buy the next in the series and continue with knowledge that I need but don't really want. I want everything to stay sane and stable. But, just in case.....

Great series

Really good story. highly recommended for anyone wanting a great read and real life threats.

Don't Mess with Texas

The President, in her arrogance has decided the fate of Texas(possible spoilers), take her resources, distribute them as they see fit; the most needed particularly the densly populated cities. And she plans on using Texas as a dumping ground to transport thosands of refugees on Texas because "they have the room anyway". In short Texas would loose it's autonomy and become nothing more than one large refuge base with no say as it's fate.
Yes that went over well with the Governor who immediately declared Texas a free Repulic and secceded.
Meanwhile the Armstrongs are facing their own dilemma at the ranch as hundreds of people are pouring over the border and looting. The Rodeo kids are hundreds of miles away and slowly attempting to make their way back home but face their own troubles as town after town has closed it's borders and now Canada is also expelling all foriegners.
Ducan and Soke are also attempting to leave the very dangerous situation that he has inadverdantly placed the family in and make an attempt to make it to international waters in the hope of rescue.
This is just the beginning of the conflict they and many Americans now find themselves in as the rule of law crumbles and lawlessness is rampant. How each group faces adversity will test their courage, innner strength and faith in a deity that appears to have forggotten them.
Very well written and as authors note state, there is no vulgarity of words, sexual or violent gratuitous scenes. The scary parts are extremely plausible actions that might actually occur if the chess pieces fall into or are placed in just the right place.
Will you be ready for it...?
