About this listen
The prestigious Midwest Book Review "unreservedly" recommends January 6: A Novel "to community and college/university library collections" and calls it "essential reading for those with interest, in politics, terrorism, freedom..."
The day democracy was assaulted...Protesters at the President’s rally morph into a mob that storms the Capitol, right-wing extremists in their midst.
In halls the author walked for decades as a reporter, hostages are taken, the House Speaker among them. A horrific standoff gives extremist militias time to unleash deadly terrorism across the nation. Public officials are assassinated. Bombs ignited in malls.
National Guard units are beset by mutiny. Dams and electrical grids attacked, innocent citizens killed. Insurrectionists commandeer radio stations, broadcasting calls for revolution. Riots break out, extremists of the right and left in mortal combat. Cities are aflame.
The President, in election denial, weighs declaring martial law to quell the violence – and justify refusing to leave office...Can democracy survive?
This insider glimpse of what might come next following a disputed election is a must-read for anyone interested in the future of the country.

"Brewer gets inside the violent insurrectionists' heads as the revolution spreads. It didn't happen... but it could have!" - John Dinges, author of The Condor Wars

Couldn't stop listening!
It's fascinating to read or listen to a book about events you have lived through. This fictionalized account of a true event really held my attention. I listened to it while knitting and didn't get much else done until it was over. I plan to use it to listen to next time my husband and I have a long road trip.
I recognized some of the characters, even though the names had been changed. Among the more interesting aspects were the descriptions of experiences that radicalized the protagonists and led them down the path to destruction. Something else that connected with me was how the majority of the general public reacted to the events, something we've witnessed during and after the real event. I only wish events of this kind would remain as entertaining fiction and would not break out into reality, as sometimes happens and did to us.
The narrator did an excellent job at the voices. I believe a couple of city names were mispronounced, but I was able to figure out which ones they were, and it did not disturb my immersion into the story.
I will definitely read/listen to more from this author!
