Publisher's summary

The end of America came slowly.
It was death by a thousand cuts.
The collapse came in a rush.
Survival would require a thousand stitches.

International bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, delivers up-all-night thrillers to nearly two million readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide.

With the threats brought to their doorstep, the neighbors behind the gates face a dilemma. Do they try to make peace with those who've threatened their very existence if they don't pay a King's ransom in food and supplies? Or, do they stand their ground and fight back in an effort to protect their property and themselves.

Old, festering animosity within the neighborhood rises to the surface as two distinct factions are in complete disagreement as to the best course of action. Will the two groups be able to put their differences aside? Or, will their division result in their one peaceful gated community be overrun resulting in the loss of property and their lives?

The nation is one bad news story away from economic and societal collapse. Behind The Gates is a post apocalyptic survival fiction series about one community's struggles to ward off an existential threat from their fellow man. Can they find common ground or will they most certainly succumb to the threats that surround them?

With seventy novels published worldwide, Bobby Akart delivers intense, up-all-night thrillers that have you whispering just one more chapter.

Fantastic relationships and storyline!

I waited to listen to these books until book 2 came out because I knew I’d want to binge listen. Now I wish I’d waited even longer for book 3!!

Entertaining read

This series was an entertaining listen. I listened to the whole series while going about my usual day and enjoyed it thoroughly. It was a little more sedate than his usual fare which suited me as of late.

The Collapse Continues

Book 2 - This is the second book of 4. Political maneuvering continues at the Colony subdivision. Sides are being drawn and our protagonists are consistently being out maneuvered by the HOA president in his pursuit of power. All of this while the power infrastructure is collapsing and riots on the streets are going on.

I recommend this book and look forward to the continuation of the story.

Small injustices

My heart is in my throat, the book ends and I won’t know what happens until the next book!!! It’s riveting, shocking and addictive. This story has had me holding my breath at times and laughing at others. Love the characters personalities.

Good story, but slow development

I feel like these first two books could have been combined into one, but such is the nature of audiobooks.

We see the ‘Sarge’ character of the Boston Brahmin series reborn in Dean Winchester in “Behind the Gates”.

Dislike the sing-songish rhythm of the audible narrator. It makes this series difficult to listen and the low tone in which he speaks (almost like a whisper) difficult to hear.

Get out of the cities

Accurate depiction of how major cities will implode during a major SHTF event. Get out now, build community and avoid detection. Bobby nailed this one.
