About this listen

Oil is the lifeblood of America.
Some see it as poisonous to the planet.
How far will both sides go as a battle rages over Black Gold?

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

A guerrilla war rages between the petroleum industry and eco-terrorists. As the violence escalates Texas oil producers fight back. The battle takes an unexpected turn, one that impacts every Texan and all of America. How far will both sides go in the fight over Black Gold?

The Texas Forever trilogy depicts the petroleum industry under attack from radical environmental terrorists. From extraction to refining to distribution, the conflict over BLACK GOLD as crude oil has been nicknamed, is subjected to violent tactics in an attempt to stem the nation's use of fossil fuels.

In Texas, independent oil producers fight back. As the saying goes, they're mad as hell and they aren't gonna take it anymore.

With the eco-terrorists stymied in their efforts and suffering casualties as well, they turn to another battlefield - cyber warfare. Tensions escalate and as the eco-terrorists achieve success, they decide to go big or go home. They set their sights on ERCOT - the Texas power grid.

This is the story of all out war between the oil industry and radical environmentalists who will learn not to mess with Texas. However, just as the battle appears to be won, another entity puts it's thumbs on the scale.

Million-copy best-selling author, Bobby Akart, delivers intense, up-all-night thrillers that have you whispering just one more chapter until the end.

Akart has written much better.

It could have been a news report, “this is the current situation, more at 9 o’clock “.

The story is awesome , but remember we read these stories for some level of closure, w/o some closure we’ll read another author.

Authors lack of firearm knowledge and the authors need for hyper specifics in his storytelling is an easy fix.

Very interesting and intriguing storyline

I enjoyed the book from the get-go. Very interesting story very possible with today’s modern headlines. A book I could not quit until I listen to it twice. Kevin Pierce gives a masterful performance in delivering the story. Highly recommend

A Bobby Akart Short Story?

First, Kevin Pierce, how can you go wrong with Kevin Pierce? 5⭐️'s.
The story ends in a cliffhanger after taking you thru the penultimate struggle between the "American Way" in GOOD common sense energy stratagem and EVIL morons who have no grasp of Earth's cyclical climate trends. A continuation in this series will continue to illustrate why Bobby Akart will always have a loyal reader/listener-ship.
