Publisher's Summary

The decision to splinter backfires.

When Lauren and the others leave the safety of the valley in search of supplies and aid, they’re trapped, captured, and tortured. Escape seems impossible…if they’re to survive, it will be only be by rescue, and not without blood on their hands and tears in their eyes.

Could you watch one of your own be beaten?

The group’s captors are coldblooded and ruthless, and they senselessly brutalize without pity. Despite Lauren’s bravery in the face of insuperable odds, she finds herself heartbroken. Can she still find the will to keep fighting?

A friend from the past shows his face.

After seeing him, Lauren knows what’s about to happen, and her captors are about to find out, as well. Payback awaits on the horizon.

They stood together. Can they do the same while divided?

Until now, the community had lived and fought valiantly shoulder to shoulder, in peace amongst themselves.

But now, in Divided We Stand, new alliances have developed, confidants from years past have resurfaced, and new leaders emerge. With so many absent, and others now stricken with illness, a dangerous vacuum has materialized. Unless they can pull themselves back together, the valley will be more vulnerable and susceptible to attack than ever before.

Can citizen defenders of a country in ruin learn to stand on their own again? Find out in the fourth book of this post-apocalyptic thriller packed with action & adventure.

Another great book in this series. I find myself enthralled with what these characters will do and say next even though I don't always agree with their theories. This book had a little more conspiracy theory preaching than the last and I have to admit it sure makes you think! Lauren has changed so much from book 1 until now and she seems to be getting harder in each book which makes sense in the situations. I really want to know where Allen is and can't wait for the next book. I am devouring this series. The narration is great. I'm really glad the author stayed with the same narrator throughout the series cause I'm not sure I'd like anyone else.

Excellent, 5 star novel!

C.A. Rudolph does it again. He managed to put together a gripping story even better then the previous one. He doesn't seem to fall into that pattern of up and down, build up novel, then action novel, like so many other authors in this genre. He flawlessly manages to build on the next book while still keeping the current story interesting and exciting.

Awesome series

this is one of the best written series I have listened to yet, can't wait for book 5. Hint Hint.

Not a cliffhanger this time, phew!

I finished book #4 and already I'm thinking, "Come on C.A., write #5 right away!" It's a continuation of splitting up the gang and bringing some home. I wasn't sure, but it seemed like #4 was hinting that Allen (Lauren's Dad) was still alive and out there trying to communicate? I don't think that's a spoiler alert, I've wondered from the beginning. Oh, and I've wondered why in the heck, does C.A. divert to stories from the past all the time. What's that all about?? But, this time, he's tied things together even more than the other books. It makes me get why he has the diversion from the present story. All and all, it was a very good book and ended on a good note this time; so put away your heart medicine.

Solid Story, Interesting Characters

The saga of the Russell family is very intriguing and unique. It's unlike many of the post-EMP survival stories, in it's revolving around a highly trained teenage girl, who is more ready for the apocalypse than anyone ever would be at her age. That makes it both interesting and at certain times, hard to relate to. CA Rudolph does write in a way that makes her feelings of anger and isolation so believable, especially from the vantage point of a teenage girl. And as the family navigates through this book, old characters from the past reemerge, and surprises come at every turn. Can't wait for book 5. Kevin Pierce is his always perfect, spot on self. No PA book is the same without his narration.

Excellent!

Another great book in an amazing series. I could listen to them all day. Oh yeah I do!

love it

Love the whole series so far. I am sad that eventually it will come to an end.

Enjoyed

Just like the rest. This is really good, enjoyable and satisfied. Getting the next to continue on.

still a mystery

as things progress, one question is yet to be answered. what happened to Allen? I don't know yet.

Outstanding!

I absolutely love this series. So well developed. The characters felt real. I literally think a couple of them live on my street:) If I could hive more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommended.

What’s wrong with this girl

I disliked the way this girl is written, by the end of this book i really wished they’d kill her. So the focus could be on the good story.

Action packed

A great read, so much happening, action packed and intriguing, there are a few reunions, some happy some not. I received this book in exchange for my honest review.

Keep going!

Each book get more intricate and involved! Keep going and listening to this series! Loved this book
