Publisher's summary

For many people at Pierce Point and the rest of Washington State, the upcoming New Year is a time for hope, and belief that life is going to improve and the Collapse will end. For Grant Matson and the 17th Irregulars, the New Year means only one thing - war. The time has come, and they have received their orders from HQ. Grant must come clean with Lisa and tell her the truth about his work as he plans to abandon his family once again. While the Loyalists drunkenly and selfishly celebrate New Year’s Eve, the Patriots mount a surprise attack on Frederickson, making way for the 17th Irregulars to move toward Olympia. As the battle moves on, the men quickly realize the importance of everything they have been training for when they find themselves ambushed. Doing everything he can to suppress his own fear and lead the 17th Irregulars, Grant motivates them to persevere as they fight for liberty and restoring the country to the greatness it once was.

I don't know if I could read these

But listening to them is just fine. Great performance. Decent book, though I expected more action in 'The War'

Another riveting story

Just can’t put it down. Great story line, characters, and realistic events. The way Glenn brings all the human emotions and reactions and interrelationships between Grant and his family, colleagues, friends, and enemies is truly amazing. Great stuff!

Great story and great lessons!

Have reread/relistened to this series at least 10 times. Love it and catch new things each time. Becoming more applicable to real life each day sadly.

So impressed with the narrator

Where does The War rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This one was my favorite book in the series when I read the paper back, so I wanted to hear this one first. With Kevin Pierce doing the reading, it is even better. So, so impressed with what Kevin was able to bring to this book series. This is now my favorite audio. Kevin's reading has definitely changed this series for me and I will be going back to listen to all the other ones in this series.

What did you like best about this story?

It is action packed and makes you feel like you are one of the 17th Irregs.

Which scene was your favorite?

The opening scene of taking over the helicopter and grabbing the high value target just sets the tone for the whole book. Love it.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This one just grabs you and doesn't let you stop listening.

Excellent story.

This series is certainly one of the best I've ever listened to or read for that matter. I've followed several other authors but have to say I'm sorry that I'm on book 10 now because that's the end of the series and rightly so but man this series has been not only entertaining but an eye opener to what could very well be the future of our Republic.
