By: Nicholas Sansbury Smith

Narrated by: Ray Porter

Now available in a single collection, the explosive 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 bestselling author Nicholas Sansbury Smith.

Sons of War

Across the world, the United States recalls troops to combat civil unrest after the biggest economic meltdown in history. While some see the coming collapse as the end, cartels and rival gangs see opportunity. As open warfare erupts across the states, Marine Sergeant Ronaldo Salvatore fights his way back to LA, where his son has joined the police in the battle for a city spiraling into anarchy.

Sons of War 2: Saints

In the aftermath of a devastating civil war, America has fallen into chaos. Los Angeles is divided into different territories controlled by criminal organizations, and Don Antonio Moretti is hungry for more. While the crime families battle for power in LA, Dominic Salvatore and his elite team at the LAPD fight tirelessly to stem the rot. But their fight often seems futile in a force rife with corruption.

Sons of War 3: Sinners

The motto of Marine Sergeant Ronaldo Salvatore lives on in his son, Dominic, and his undercover team known as the Saints. With the support of LAPD Captain Zed Marks, the Saints embark on a mission to destroy the criminal organizations that have a stranglehold on Los Angeles. In a three-way death match, the streets will run with blood before a victor ever emerges.

Sons of War 4: Soldiers - written with Tom Abrahams

In the conclusion to the sweeping saga of postapocalyptic Los Angeles, Dominic Salvatore leads the Saints in a final push to purge the city of its demons. After sending their families into hiding, the Saints know that the stakes have never been higher—they will succeed decisively or perish. Every eye is on the prize. And anyone trying to walk the fence between good and evil will have to pick a side. With either choice, hell awaits.

Civil War + Organized Crime = relentless page turn

I already owned book 1 and 2, but blew through book 3 and 4 once I found this in a box set. Really good action, excellent characters, and a unique premise with the organized crime aspect. The fact this is read by Audie winner Ray Porter is a huge plus. He's one of my favorite narrators! Don't pass this up!

Oustanding!

These books are very underrated in the post apocalyptic genre. I saw one reader say it's the Sopranos meets Mad Max, and that's pretty accurate when you add in the 4th installment. Smith's vision of a futuristic America torn apart by a Civil War is both timely and terrifying. The best part for me is the added mafia and organized crime elements. Add in Ray Porter, and this is one of the best series I've listened to in a long time. Definitely give this a try!

Kick ass story!

I already own the entire series individually and in hardcover, but still bought and listened to this box set! Such a kick ass story! Bad asses and awesome action. Interesting and plausible future. Give this series a go! You won't be disappointed!

Wartime Chaos from an Expert’s Eye

Nicholas Sansbury Smith has an eye for civilization in chaos. His prior career in national security trained his mind to identify potential threat and subsequent survival challenges. All of this informs the mistro at work, showing through gangs at war, how American heroes would respond when World War III breaks out on our home soil.

I loved the character work, as expected. The opposing families evokes a Godfather mafioso tone, and Nick’s empathy into both sides created a magnificent expose on how familial loyalty and the desires to protect empires can unravel spectacularly.

All four books are bangers. Nick and Tom write at a fast clip, while blasting the screen with efficient action and important character moments. You’ll get hooked early on and by book four the rewards will be worth the investment.

Ray Porter’s narration is a perfect fit. He’s always a champion of auditory intrigue. I loved his skill pared with our authors.

Cheers to all involved! I loved it from beginning to end!

Great story!!

NSS did it again!! Great story again!! I'm not impressed with the narration on this one though. It was so great to FINALLY get a good explanation for an ending!! I've listened to too many series that leave you hanging at the end wondering. Great job NSS!!
