Point of Crisis

A Modern Thriller (Alex Fletcher, Book 4)

By: Steven Konkoly

Narrated by: John David Farell

The epic thriller series continues....

In the aftermath of the brutal attack on his family compound, Alex Fletcher embraces his rapidly expanding role within the New England Regional Recovery Zone (RRZ).

Fueled by a limitless drive to protect his family and a rekindled sense of duty, he enlists the reluctant aid of a local militia commander - to ease the public's fears of a federal government takeover.

As Captain Fletcher digs deeper into the government's plans, he starts to question the federal government's intentions - and ability to stabilize the situation in New England. With the region's critical infrastructure destroyed and the nation's electrical grid crippled, he foresees a human cataclysm, with several hundred thousand desperate refugees marching further north through Maine.

The bad news doesn't end there.

Alex discovers that Eli Russell has rebuilt his militia - with the intention of hastening the Regional Recovery Zone's downfall. Obsessed with stopping the deranged psychopath that attacked his family, Alex scours the back roads and rural towns of Southern Maine to find him - unaware that Eli's plans are far more personal.

With the world swiftly unraveling around him, Alex will face his most difficult decisions ever....

I think I'm becoming paranoid

Well written with a great blend of plot development and action, the third book in the “The Perseid Collapse” series offers a glimpse into how the US might try and recover after a significant collapse in infrastructure. Mr. Konkoly does a great job of painting an all too realistic possibility of high amounts of government oversight combined with the lawlessness of a post-apocalyptic world. The story wraps up the series nicely but also leaves room for the author to come back and rejoin the fletchers as some point in the future.

The narrator does a great job bringing all the characters to life and does well with the New England Accent.

Disappointing

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Disappointing compared to the 2 great books leading up to it.

Could you see Point of Crisis being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

No movie for this...others yes.

Great Read

started to read the first book it kept me on the edge of the chair could not put it down. enjoying this 4th book.

Disappointed and bored

This one was definitely not up to expectations, could have skipped it and nothing would have been lost. I'm sure the prologue of number 4 will summarize this entire book. Just didn't have the excitement of the others in this series, did not hold my interest. I'm fine with the military strategies and maneuvers as an integral part of the story but not when it's 90-95% of the book. Maybe I missed something along the way, but very little time was spent on what was happening to the families, neighbors and friends, what about their thoughts and feelings, etc? Couldn't wait for the end so I could scratch it off my list and move on to another novel. Taking a short break from starting on the final book in this series, I certainly hope it's better than this one.

Entertaining! Steven provides an intriguing tale!

Steven takes a good swipe at a hypothetical World War 3 scenario. His knowledge of technology and today's military appears exceptional and makes the story hard to put down.
