Tenure

Tenure, Book 1

De: Blaine L. Pardoe, Mike Baron

Narrado por: Eric Jason Martin

Push a good man too far…

Braxton Knox was a veteran, a university professor, a conservative family man—a good person, commanding the respect of those who knew him. Until the day when one innocent slip of the tongue brought down the merciless wrath of the woke social justice mob—ultimately costing him his career, his family, his home, and almost his life.

Unfortunately for the SJWs, they chose the wrong person to abuse. They expected Braxton to do what so many do: roll over and take it. It never dawned on them that he would fight back.

Braxton unleashes a war against those who sought to ruin him. His unique brand of vigilante justice is vicious, violent, vindicating, and fraught with risk…

…but at this point, he's got nothing left to lose.

From the minds of legendary comic writer Mike Baron (Flash, The Punisher) and political thriller/sci-fi author Blaine L. Pardoe comes the story of a new vigilante in an age that demands such a person. It is a mix of Falling Down, Death Wish, The Equalizer, and Reacher amped up on energy drinks and rage. Ripped from today's headlines, Tenure is a powerful story of justice, vengeance, and open rebellion against everything deemed politically correct.

Braxton isn't the hero we want… he's the hero we need.

The story was fast paced.

I liked the action and the pacing. The author knows the subject and it shows. I look forward to reading more.

Great read (listen)

Starts off in present day with all the upheaval that’s going on. Quite a stark picture at points, but very relatable characters throughout. I’m looking forward to the next one!

Sometimes JUSTICE requires a personal touch

I really enjoyed this book. There were a couple of minor continuity/timeline issues early in the book, but they don't take away from the enjoyment of the book.

I find the main characters motivations and actions relatable, as there are many who experienced similar events as the main character and have been let down by our legal system.

Where is no.2???

Loved it!!! Waiting for the next one! Vigilantism isn't a bad thing, and won't be the next step.

A good man pushed to the limits

Being from the area this book is based around as well as being what some would consider conservative this book hits a soft spot for me, specially after seeing ANTIFA in action first hand. With POTUS Trump being re-elected in 2024 intelligence groups have been seeing reports of ANTIFA groups reestablishing, and regrouping, as well as they have not been idle these past few years with know ANTIFA members going to tactical shooting and training schools and their financial backing that has allowed them to purchase and use items like IMSI catchers. It will be interesting to see where this series goes. Thank you for a great story that I'll be recommending to family and friends.

Revenge is best served cold

Scary to think that what happened to the main character has actually happened. But thankfully 77 million Americans finally said enough is enough recently and maybe this woke nightmare will end

Great topic. Greatly needed. Hooray for our side.

Great topic. Greatly needed. Good narration. Believable characters. Timely subject. All aspects of story tied up well.

Dangerous Book

This is definitely the type of book the government doesn’t want you listening to. For multiple reasons. Pardoe has really hit his stride and is banging out amazing books left and right. Especially the political stuff. He has awesome insight, demonstrated through his commentary in his Blue Dawn books and as a regular guest on the Council on Future Conflict show. And he’s right. Way too many people like to talk big, but 99.999% won’t do a damn thing to actually fix the problem. I live on the border, and have been faced with this reality, of those that talk vs those that do. We need more doers. And if Braxton were ever caught, and I was on his jury, he needn’t worry.

Hell yeah!

Awesome story! So frustrating yet so satisfying. At first the narrator was really breathy sounding but only took about 20 minutes to stop hearing that.

Exciting

BLP is an amazing author and this book was amazing. I couldn’t stop listening I just needed to hear what was going to happen next.
