Story
Before the lights went out, Jack Warrant never considered himself a prepper. That was someone on the edge, a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday cultist who had a fatalistic view of the world. He was neither a theorist nor a cultist. He was an optimist. At least that was what he told himself when the darker thoughts creeped into his psyche as he stared at the ceiling in the middle of the night. Whenever he started down the rabbit hole, he always clawed his way back into the sunlight.

Mason Lot is in-house counsel for Poseidon, a major Wall Street firm that serves as a front company for the National Security State. His job pays well and gives him insight into the corrupt shadow government, but it can't help with his problems at home. Mason assumed that the hefty price tag for his daughter’s private school would buy him a pass from the insanity plaguing New York’s public school system. Nevertheless, indoctrinated by propaganda, Wynter wants to transition into being a boy. When Mason refuses to pay for the procedure, Wynter turns to the state for help.

Several years ago, an ARkStorm, a once-in-a-thousand-years flood event caused by a series of intense atmospheric rivers, flooded the Central Valley of California from Sacramento to what was once Los Angeles. The weight of the water was equivalent to the volume generated by the Mississippi River times 22. It challenged an already fragile seismic system consisting of hundreds of active faults.

By 2038, the apocalypse had been years in the making. The only question was—would it be caused by a financial collapse, a nuclear war, or a bio-weapon. No one thought the end of the United States would result from all three. Walt knew things were bad, but like most Americans, he felt the government would muddle through and keep its citizens safe. He was wrong. Too many politicians worked hard to line their pockets while not ensuring America would stay strong and survive. Walt and his loved ones have to face the apocalypse and the ramifications of life AFTER AMERICA no longer exists.

Story
Akart's standalone novel, ARkStorm, is based on actual events. In 1861, a 43-day series of atmospheric rivers, huge flows of moisture carried from the tropics to the West Coast, turned large swaths of California into an inland sea. The intense rainstorms pounded the state unabated with little respite. Rivers became raging torrents that swept away entire communities, killing thousands. The State’s Central Valley turned a massive body of water 300-miles long and 20-miles wide.

Publisher's summary
The end of America came slowly.
It was death by a thousand cuts.
The collapse came in a rush.
Survival would require a thousand stitches.
International bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, delivers up-all-night thrillers to nearly two million readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide.
With the threats brought to their doorstep, the neighbors behind the gates face a dilemma. Do they try to make peace with those who've threatened their very existence if they don't pay a King's ransom in food and supplies? Or, do they stand their ground and fight back in an effort to protect their property and themselves.
Old, festering animosity within the neighborhood rises to the surface as two distinct factions are in complete disagreement as to the best course of action. Will the two groups be able to put their differences aside? Or, will their division result in their one peaceful gated community be overrun resulting in the loss of property and their lives?
The nation is one bad news story away from economic and societal collapse. Behind The Gates is a post apocalyptic survival fiction series about one community's struggles to ward off an existential threat from their fellow man. Can they find common ground or will they most certainly succumb to the threats that surround them?
With seventy novels published worldwide, Bobby Akart delivers intense, up-all-night thrillers that have you whispering just one more chapter.

Story
It really is the four horsemen of the apocalypse, Death, Famine, War, and Conquest. Things a seventeen-year-old boy shouldn’t have to deal with. In those most infamous words, mistakes were made. It wasn’t supposed to happen. The asteroid was supposed to miss. Running for their lives, Ryan Conrad and Kelsey Morgan, race to escape the impact of a super asteroid and the apocalyptic world it left behind. Fighting to survive the aftershocks. The earthquake to end all earthquakes, the largest tsunami in human history, and worst of all, the EMP and loss of civilization.

The weight of the water was equivalent to the volume generated by the Mississippi River times 22. It challenged an already fragile seismic system consisting of hundreds of active faults.

By 2038, the apocalypse had been years in the making. The only question was—would it be caused by a financial collapse, a nuclear war, or a bio-weapon. No one thought the end of the United States would result from all three. Walt knew things were bad, but like most Americans, he felt the government would muddle through and keep its citizens safe. He was wrong. Too many politicians worked hard to line their pockets while not ensuring America would stay strong and survive. Walt and his loved ones have to face the apocalypse and the ramifications of life AFTER AMERICA no longer exists.

Before the lights went out, Jack Warrant never considered himself a prepper. That was someone on the edge, a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday cultist who had a fatalistic view of the world. He was neither a theorist nor a cultist. He was an optimist. At least that was what he told himself when the darker thoughts creeped into his psyche as he stared at the ceiling in the middle of the night. Whenever he started down the rabbit hole, he always clawed his way back into the sunlight.

We see the ‘Sarge’ character of the Boston Brahmin series reborn in Dean Winchester in “Behind the Gates”.
Dislike the sing-songish rhythm of the audible narrator. It makes this series difficult to listen and the low tone in which he speaks (almost like a whisper) difficult to hear.

Guns
Listened to May 2024.
Little or no swearing. Only listened to 2 hours. Too much gunplay for me.
Totally agree with the author's repeated statement, "All empires collapse eventually." Over 50 years ago I took Latin in high school, and my Latin teacher was a big fan of the Roman Empire. The Babylonians, Assyrians, Medes, Persians, Greeks, Romans - all their empires eventually collapsed.
The absurd debt of the USA, 16.7% of US population as of 2024 are addicts, and the prevalence of violence, dishonesty, and criminal behavior makes for a poor prognosis.
Just not interested in the guns. I prefer end of the system novels that talk about gathering useful people, helping others, growing food, etc. I do not think survival dependent on gathering supplies, which eventually run out. I think more about what my parents, grandparents, and great grandparents did from the Civil War up to and through the Great Depression of the 1930s to survive. You need food and clean water to survive. You do not need paper goods or plastic. You need a heat source in the winter. You do not need AC in the summer.
When my 10 year old grandfather hit his foot with an ax while chopping wood, there were no doctors or hospitals around. My great grandmother sat on him and sewed his foot up. Would prefer stories about how to deal with things like this without the modern "conveniences" and packaging available today.
