  • When you poke the hornets' nest, ya better make dang sure you kill 'em all. If you don't, you're gonna suffer their wrath.This fast-paced post-apocalyptic dystopian fiction series from author Bobby Akart (The Boston Brahmin series and the Prepping for Tomorrow series), has been hailed as a masterpiece of EMP survival fiction. Prepare to learn, as well as be entertained as The Blackout Series continues with Hornet's Nest.Hornet's Nest, book five in The Blackout Series, tests the mettle of our characters. Will one success lead to devastation for them all? Is it possible for an unlikely group of heroes to band together to defeat an evil which had plagued a small community for decades? And if they are successful, how do you build a world shattered by the devastating aftereffects of a massive solar flare?Note: this book does not contain strong language. It is intended to entertain and inform audiences of all ages, including teen and young adults. Although some scenes depict the realistic threat our nation faces from a devastating solar flare, and the societal collapse which will result in the aftermath, it does not contain graphic scenes typical of other books in the post-apocalyptic genre.

My Thoughts: 

It's time to kick the Hornet's Nest!! The people are fed up with Ma and her followers and decide that it's time to do something about it. The Ryman's never thought they would be part of a Civil War but they are in the thick of things here! Can they take back Savannah from Ma? 

Things have finally come to a head at Shiloh Ranch and everyone decides it's time to take back their town. Ma and Junior have done too much to too many people and it's time they pay. I was so happy to see Alex shine in this one. She has really come into herself and grew up a lot in this one. 

Plot wise, it was really fast paced and at times intense! The Civil War was building for along time and it finally exploded in this. I was at the edge of my seat throughout and devoured this! I was a little disappointed that the war wasn't a little more..... brutal though. I thought a few more people would have gotten hurt.

In all, a great continuation on the series and makes me eager to see the next one. The ending was killer though, I'm not a fan of cliff hangers and this one was one heck of a cliffhanger!! I need the next book ASAP!!! 

John David Farrell was better in this one than the last as he seemed to have gotten a feel for the characters. He was easy to listen to and was clear and concise. I will have to check out more by him. 

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. This in no way affected nor influenced my thoughts.
