Alone in the Ashes

By William W. Johnstone

Book Overview

"In the Tri-States, everybody does their fair share. You do not steal, you do not lie, you do not cheat. Everybody pulls together." --BEN RAINES One Nation Under Hell While those who survived the bombs, the fallout, and the germ warfare struggle to stay alive in a world gone mad, legendary soldier and survival expert Ben Raines is fighting to rebuild a nation out of anarchy and bitter chaos. In this hellish new order, there are devils leading armed gangs of marauders. Under monikers like Cowboy Vic and Texas Red, they wreak destruction wherever they go. When Raines is cut off from his SUSA Rebel forces, he becomes their prey--a special target for their frenzy and bloodlust. From Georgia to West Texas and Colorado to Idaho, Raines must stay one step ahead of death. . .until he decides it's time to turn and fight.

Great Series Very possible scenarios

thritbooks is a great company to deal with I recommend to all my reading friends Can't remember Author "Phoenix Force" and Wingman series

Wonderful! Can't stop and don't want to!

Ben Raines finally gets what he wants. A chance to be alone. However, that proves almost to be his undoing as he is located and pursued by two of the worst gang leaders that have come along. They're not as bad as Hartline, but enough to twist Ben's guts into such a wrinkle that he's bound and determined to rid the world of them right here and now. Again, there are not enough words, or enough room here to really say what should be said. William Johnstone has an uncanny ability to make you wonder if he has received gifted insight into the future. A future that is frightening, yet comforting to know that Ben and his people are there and ready to go!

Kicks...

I don't know how anyone else feels about Johnstone's work but with the Ashes series I believe he can't be outdone. This book which is number five in the series is as good as the others my opinion is that if you liked number 1 you are guaranteed to like number 5

The editing is horrid, but it's extremely addictive!

Johnstone should fire his editor, or bother to run a grammer check and spelling check, but the Ashes series is addictive. The blatant knocks of our current situation touch a nerve with many people who are tired of this wishy-washy world. The plot is thin, but you still have to keep turning the pages. It's an addiction you will want to hide!

Most excellent reading!!

This particular book is written very well and never misses a beat. Like all of his books in this series you can relate almost everything he talks about to todays government. The content is very good and some is very scary to even think about but most of what is written you can see happening in todays world. Read this book and the rest of them too and think about what is said
