About this listen

From Western word-slinger and anthropologist W. Michael Gear, comes the third installment in the best-selling contemporary apocalyptic Western series, The Wyoming Chronicles!

In the aftermath of Sam Delgado and Breeze Tappan’s ambush of the posse at Slickside, tempers flare in the Bighorn Basin. During an attempt to stop unchecked violence from breaking out, Governor Agar faces death, saved only when Lauren Davis shoots first.

After the Collapse, insulin is in short supply for the 40 thousand diabetics in Wyoming. Word comes down there's a lab north of Boulder, Colorado, that can make insulin in sufficient quantities to keep people alive. Governor Agar handpicks a team—The Fallen Eagle convoy—to retrieve the scientists and their lab in a desperate bid to save the lives of his constituents—at a cost some will consider too high.

As Lauren joins Governor Agar’s security detail, Sam and Breeze are sent south. There, in the midst of violence, road blocks, and gangs, the Fallen Eagle convoy comes face to face with the depths of human barbarity and a cunning adversary that will do anything to stop them.

In the end, however, it comes down to Sam and Breeze. One of them will have to make the supreme sacrifice in a desperate race against the clock and a cunning enemy who will stop at nothing to destroy the Fallen Eagle convoy. Or, in Sam’s words, “Never bring a pickup truck to a snowplow fight.”

Written with the wit, tension, and action that fans of the best-selling Dissolution and Fourth Quadrant have come to expect, Michael Gear’s After the Eagle Has Fallen takes the Wyoming Chronicles series to the next level. Once again, New York Times best-selling and Western Writers Hall of Fame author, W. Michael Gear, shows his mastery in this superbly crafted tale!

Amazing, wanting so much more


After The Eagle Has Fallen: The Wyoming Chronicles: Book Three
by W. Michael Gear
Mike has a way of grabbing the reader's attention, holding on to it in a way that routinely has readers blazing through the final pages in the wee hours of the night. I had to plow through the last 100 pages of the book last night. I could not put it down, as I had to find resolution for each of my beloved characters. This is what is expected of this phenomenal author, but when you are reading this divided POV writing style. Each point of view is drawn slowly through peaks and valleys of conflict and difficulty. The reader just needs to get through the end of the story to stop and reflect. This book does not disappoint.
For those fans following the series this is the progression of the series, holding entirely true to the nature and ideals of the original two books. Yes you can read this story without reading the prior books, it can stand alone.
The two female leaders have come to a peaceful understanding of their shared historical pain. The book shows how they through their natures and strength fight to find resolution to conflict in the Basin area.
When Mike said that snow plows are needed for the story, as the snow built up on my driveway, I thought of the weather being part of the conflict to come. I was entirely wrong, and he was right, you need snow plows to go into the apocalyptic large population areas. The mass of abandoned and collected vehicles by traps, and blockages is just the start.
This story looks into the next level of survival. Looking at both medical and psychological problems. First of all Breeze and Sam are sent into the ravaged western high population area of Denver to gain skilled scientists, and materials to help with the medical biological side. Addressing the need for modern medications to keep the population healthy. Secondly Mike looks into PTSD and theories and practices that may help individuals cope with the devastation and struggles, this is Lauren’s story. How she handles personal struggles, and nightmares of her survival is remarkably vividly honest and I hope that readers learn how to be compassionate to those struggling with this disorder. Mike looks into our current need to find connections to resolve our personal mental struggles and coping skills that allow us to move on. The heart of the matter is that we as a society can not go on as disruptive individuals, but work together for our survival.
I hope the hints of future problems will create another book in this series. I foresee a lot of things that could be resolved by these dynamic and enduring characters, there are more battles to come, I want to see them through it. I hope this is not the end.

Really hits home for me literally

I don't normally leave reviews, but I thought this one was really cool. The geographical accuracy is excellent in these books. I live in Laramie and I'm the manager for the local NPT Terminal (the truck that was used to haul the scientific equipment back). I could even tell you the number of the truck that would likely have been used for this mission. I just thought it was really cool how close to home it hit for me.

It got me to and from my work commute

Unfortunately that’s about the most I can say about it. I have read at least a dozen or more books from W Michael Gear. Generally there is more substance. I can’t say anything bad about his character development. However with this book, it felt like just another episode of a mediocre Netflix series. Way too much conversation and not much substance. For me, (I hate to say), but it was just a lot of blabber. Too bad. I was really looking forward to it. I will still get the next book in the series. I hope this one was transitionary to something with a better plot or at least some clue as to the direction it is taking.

Fascinating insight into humanity when civilized constraints are removed.

A compelling literary experience with solid characterizations, imaginative permutations and an interesting perspective on how civil order can crumble when survival trumps law and order and normal constraints on human behavior. Mr. Gear reminds us how complex and interconnected are safety, economics, and daily survival and the potential chaos when communications, the supply chain and government at local, state, and federal levels fail.
The Wyoming Chronicles Series is engrossing, entertaining, and prophetic. I thoroughly enjoyed both reading and listening to these splendidly written, thought provoking, and memorable novels. Jack Mullen, College Station, Texas.
