No Planet for Good Men: A Sheriff Duke Story

Forgotten Fallout, Book 1

De: M.R. Forbes

Narrado por: Jonathan Davis

Earth. After the invasion.

The planet is in ruins. Humankind struggles to survive.

Hayden is a Sheriff in a world without law. A good man in a world gone bad. He knows the fallout of an alien attack when he sees it. He's never seen anything like this before.

Isaac is a Marine in a world without order. A good man with troubles of his own. His mission was to protect the innocent, including his son. Instead, he's the only survivor.

Two good men. Two frightening discoveries. Two paths to one inescapable truth:

The invasion may be over, but the real fight is just beginning.

Another Excellent Story

Again M.R.Forbes proves why he is in my top 3 authors. He is also the reason I've gone to listening to nothing but series. I really enjoy being able to start a series and continue it throughout the day or week at times. At the same time Forbes writes in a way that allows me to use my imagination and be apart of the story. Thanks for the memories of the past and thanks for the future memories, Mr. Forbes.

Like a video game

This tale contains a mix of elements from games/stories like Fallout 4 (by Bethesda), Starcraft, Mad Max, and Aliens. In fact, the beginning borrowed so many elements of Fallout 4 that I almost thought it was a knockoff. Thankfully it takes on more originality as the story progresses. Since I like these genres, I did end up liking the book as a whole. A mix of SF, Apocalypse, and even a smidge of Western. The characters were believable most of the time and much of the dialogue felt realistic. There were moments I got confused with certain happenings or details, but that could be due to my mind drifting at parts. It was a little jarring how the person I thought was the protagonist took a backseat to another character introduced later in the tale. Overall though, it was an enjoyable read and I plan to get the next book in the series.

The narrator was good at expressing excitement during action scenes. But I swear he kept pronouncing Hayden as Ayden. That, and his voice for Isaac seemed to change as the story progressed.

Phenomenal

M.R. Forbes is absolutely talented in the way he is able to provide a new exciting universe with a foundation of familiar ideas that keep you grounded through righteous victories over wicked injustices.

another fantastic addition

Sherriff Hayden Duke out doing his sherriff thing. would read any book he's apart of.

A Sheriff in Battle Armor

The story takes place sometime after the ending of The Forgotten series with the inclusion of three new tier 2 protagonists and a new, unbeknownst tier 1 antagonist. Sheriff Hayden is the primary protagonist but, regrettably, very little backstory as to why or how he became a Sheriff in a future post-apocalyptic Earth. The same holds true to the world building, i.e., the book assumes the listener is aware of the previous series and abbreviates its creation in this book. For that, the listener would need to listen to The Forgotten series.

The author has given the three new protagonists and primary antagonist sufficient backstory and the clashes between the sides are thrilling but not unpredictable.
