Patriot Dawn: The Resistance Rises

By: Max Velocity

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

*Updated Second Edition, February 2014: New battle maps/diagrams included.* The United States has descended into Civil War. The storm was rising for some time, a Resistance in the hearts of American Patriots to the strangulation of liberty by creeping authoritarianism. The scene was set. It just took a little push. A terrorist attack on the United States leads to war with Iran, followed by collapse, as the economy goes over the cliff. The final blow is a widespread opportunistic Chinese cyber attack, taking down the North American Power Grid. From the ashes, the Regime emerges. Liberty is dead. What remains of the United States of America is polarized. The Resistance Rises. Jack Berenger is a former Army Ranger Captain, living in northern Virginia with his family. Following the collapse, they fall foul of Regime violence and evacuate to the farm of an old Army friend. Jack is recruited into the resistance, to train the fledgling forces in the Shenandoah Valley. The fight begins. Live hard, Die Free. Resist.

Quality and realism of tactical details in story.

This is an excellent story, particularly for those that demand realistic depictions of combat.

Note: Naration by Virtual Voice has come along way in the last decade. However if you cannot deal with the occasional misspoke detail. For example ".50 calorie instead of .50 caliber," Then this may not be the correct version of this book. Consider the hardcopy or Kindle version.

Personally this doesn't detract from this excellent story in my opinion, hence I choose not remove a star from the performance rating.
