Fractured States

Blades of Grass, Book 6

By: Austin Chambers

Narrated by: Stephen Floyd

A hero condemned. A nation betrayed. A rebellion ignited.

The surprise arrest of Lou Caldwell is a gut punch. Every member of the Rampart Edge program is now considered a traitor to America. Even after his old mentor is executed by firing squad, Lou declines to give in—deciding death is preferable to dishonor.

Refusing to cooperate during a rushed trial for supposed war crimes, Lou finally seeks to make peace with God for past anger... preparing himself for the inevitable... unaware of what’s about to unfold.

Those that bled fighting the invaders have had enough. A wounded warrior uses his last breaths to inspire a movement, and a stoic leader organizes the resistance from the shadows, pulling in allies from around the globe. The post-war capital of Philadelphia will never be fully ready for the coming battle.

Can the City of Brotherly Love and America survive a new civil war? Will the Tree of Liberty finally be refreshed with the blood of tyrants and patriots? Find out When the Gong Rings Thrice... for Freedom has a price, and history remembers those who pay it.

Fractured States is the heart-breaking and thrilling conclusion to the Blades of Grass apocalyptic-war series.

What a series!

I didn't like the last couple chapters they hit me right in the FEELS and that is what makes these books so Damn good! I was reminded by my brother that there was a new book out and I realized that I was a couple books behind, so I dove through the last three books this week and WOW, just Wow! I can't wait for the next books.
