Republic: A Novel of America's Future

OMG! This was such an amazing story! Well written, characters well developed. Drama, action, a bit of romance. Nearly had me in tears more than once. I’ll definitely listen to this one again. Can’t wait for the sequel.

Good story. Believe able premiss. Likable characters.

This is one of the best podcast novels I have listened to. The author has created a thrilling plot and filled it with believable characters.

Really great book. We need more books like this as a podio book.

Even though it is a novel it does have some good information in it. People should pay attention to what could happen.

This podcast is amazing one of the best I have heard so far.

A must hear.

Great novel, extremely interesting and unique. Amazing podcast quality and music which enlivens the text.

I found the 'podcast novel' most enjoyable, listened to the entire book over a three day period. I see the author had stop podcasting the follow-up book, Insurgent, I would like to see him return and complete the work he started. It is a worthwhile project.

ive heard the podcast twice, and ive also read the book twice, and every time i am dragged into the middle of it, its so frightening how the he portrays the government getting more and more power. the battle narrations are edge of the chair descriptive, and they always keep you chained to the book, i cant place it down, and i want to read the next page. he is a great writer, but the sound quality is kinda not that great, the voice changes when speaking for the females sounds like static, and the... more

(PAS OP: Verhaal in het Engels) Hoewel het fictie is, krijg ik toch een donker gevoel bij dit verhaal. aangrijpend, overtuigend Een binnenlandse terroristische aanslag roept een gewelddadige en onderdrukkende antwoord van de regering van de VS ... een arbeid geschil eindigt in geweld ... een jonge jongen ligt te sterven van een zeldzame ziekte met geen hoop in zicht. Wanneer het conflict richt zich op een kleine stad in West Virginia, Ken Murphy, Irak veteraan en luitenant-kolonel in het West ... more

Excellent book! Keeps you hooked. Offers enough description to feed your imagination, but does not get stuck in the details. Very relevant book for today’s world; really makes you think.

Fantastic ! An alternate history ( or fictionalisation ) of the last couple of years in Americas history ....maybe a little closer to the truth than we could or would care to admit to . But , your best to listen to 'prayer at ramalya ' first - it gets you into the Sheehan miles mindset

I have listened to the first four chapters and am interested in the story, but the quality is really, really bad. There isn't any volume control and he must be talking into one of those little stick mics that come with laptops because every time the reader breathes the mic thumps. One second your turning it up all the way to here, then out of nowhere your ears are being blown out, this happens literally in the middle of words. Like I said, sounds like a great story, but I can't get though the aw... more

I've read the reviews on Amazon and have read some of the reviews here. The general thought is that this is a gripping, suspenseful story. I agree. The story was well told... I cared about the characters. One reviewer on Amazon points out that he was unable to believe in/ care about the characters. I agree Col. Murphy has the worst luck on the planet... but sometimes truth IS stranger than fiction. The sound effects and music were great, but the overall editing needed some help. All in all... more

Wow, a truely amazing story of what is and what could happen in our present day America. Loved the charactors and the story was fast paced, really kept my interested. This story, really opened my eyes to some of the issues we face in America today. Thanks for the Great story, I can't wait for more...

This audiobook was thrilling, scary and probably a little too close to the future than we care to admit. I highly recommend this novel. You will not be disappointed.
