Ring of Fire Axial

Ring of Fire, Book 4

The age of ruin has dawned.
A chain reaction of volcanic eruptions.
An inevitable result.
The countdown to extinction has begun.

Dr. Duke Mercer and the battered scientists of CalVO brace themselves, their ranks now bolstered by his daughter, Sloan, fresh from the cataclysmic collapse of Hawaii. As four active Hawaiian volcanoes rage, the Pacific Rim shudders, building to a terrifying crescendo with the awakening of the colossal Axial Seamount and an apocalyptic chain reaction across the Ring of Fire.

One family. Four continents. A world on edge.

“… my pulse is still racing.”

Ring of Fire is a natural disaster thriller series from international bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, who has delivered up-all-night thrillers to over two million readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide.

The Ring of Fire’s fury peaks as the Axial Seamount and volcanic systems across the Pacific Rim surge toward catastrophic eruptions. In Indonesia, Tambora, Toba, and Anak Krakatoa signal imminent disaster, threatening a global cataclysm. Across the globe, the devastating results of Fuji’s eruption and the catastrophic ramifications of the Hawaiian Islands uniting into chaos are revealed.

“Oh My God!”

These are not merely regional disasters.
This is the beginning of the end.

As the world's most dangerous volcanoes ignite in a symphony of destruction, the Mercer family confronts the ultimate, heartbreaking decision. They must act now, before the Earth's final, extinction-level event consumes everything. Or die.

The Ring of Fire has come full circle, and its last, devastating act will decide the fate of humanity.

This modern-day, fact-based novel will have you whispering just one more chapter until the end.

Solid Scientific basis

I liked how the story used real places and plausible scenarios to move the story. most dislike was dropping the nuclear angle. Also one character truly needed a swift kick to stop their stupid obsessions.

Well researched and exceptional storyline

I have listened to the entire series and have throughly enjoyed every character and chapter! Thank you for this well researched, yet entertaining series. I can't wait for your next series, have followed you for years. Thank you so much!!!

So tired of the characters

Imaginative descriptions of geological disasters. Waaaay too much focus on characters. I didn't need pages and pages of details about close calls. I didn't need dumb characters making irresponsible choices. Yeah. I know it's just a book. But the goal is to get the reader to identify with and care about characters. In my case, this was a huge swing and miss. Thank goodness for 2x speed on Audible! BTW the narrator should learn how to pronounce Puyallup and Marin!

Great Conclusion to the Story

Great story and great narration. Not only did I read this story but also listened to it. Bobby does an excellent job of research and story writing to ensure that possible scenarios of what could happen. The character development was good. Would recommend this to anyone.

Good listen

I enjoyed this series, and look forward to future series by this author. Hate to see them end
