About this listen

All empires eventually fall....

The United States is no exception...

And out of the embers, a lawless new empire will rise....

Across the world, the United States recalls troops to combat civil unrest after the biggest economic meltdown in history. Marine Sergeant Ronaldo Salvatore’s platoon comes home to a powder keg that could ignite a civil war. While some see the coming collapse as the end, others see opportunity.

Fleeing Naples after rival crime lords decimated his family, Don Antonio Moretti settles in Los Angeles to rebuild his criminal empire. But he is far from alone in his ambitions - the cartel and rival gangs all want the same turf, and they will sacrifice their own soldiers and the blood of innocents to get it.

As open warfare erupts across the states, Salvatore fights his way back to LA, where his son has joined the police in the battle for a city spiraling into anarchy. Family is everything, and the Morettis and Salvatores will do what they must to protect their own. But how far will they go to survive in a new economy where the only currency is violence?

The explosive new Sons of War series is a harrowing and realistic depiction of what a second American Civil War and the aftermath might look like, from former Homeland Security Disaster Mitigation Officer and New York Times best-selling author Nicholas Sansbury Smith.

excellent story

highly recommend, have read authors other books and this series may be my favourite, Once you understand the different characters the entire world the writer has created starts to come together with scary accuracy to what could happen in this situation. if I could rate higher I would.

Clichéd

normally I love the author and narrator but this was a struggle to complete. if it weren't for the violence it hasbthe feel of a kids book. Just stretching the imagination of what the Sons could do without the experience of what it would take. disappointed.

A bit confused…

This feels like a book that the author couldn’t decide what it wanted it to be - and just threw the kitchen sink at it. There is just too much going on, without any clear overarching narrative and with too many poorly developed characters that are difficult to empathise with.

Disappointingly average

Enjoyed NSS books in the past but this just seemed to be messy. Storyline was disjointed and I never felt excited about the next chapter at any point in the book. I won’t be trying the other books in this series.
