About this listen

It was a hard-learned lesson but Jim Powell finally understood that isolating his group of friends and family was no longer the best idea. It was a strategy that had once kept them safe, but lately seemed to be doing exactly the opposite. Staying out of town and away from people had led to them missing critical intelligence—that there were people in their community actively plotting against Jim.

By having some of his people operate vendor booths at the burgeoning apocalyptic marketplace growing in town, they'd been able to learn who was conspiring against Jim. In true Jim Powell fashion, he'd taken them all out. Now understanding the value of having eyes and ears at the marketplace, Jim decides to act on an idea proposed by his friend Lloyd and open a roadhouse in a vacant building in town.

For Lloyd, it would be a place to play music and sell liquor made from family recipes. For Jim, a bar in their community would serve several purposes. It would allow him to provide employment for the people in his group, breaking up the routine and giving them a sense of purpose. It would also allow them to run a trading post, bartering off items they didn't need for items that would be more useful, just as they'd done at the public market that summer. Finally, it would be a way for Jim Powell to keep a finger on the pulse of his community, cultivating intelligence assets and keeping tabs on everything happening around them.

Even as Jim and his people work to open the roadhouse, they have no idea what's happening outside of their community. They know little about the war going on between political factions of their own government. They also have no idea that a great upheaval is about to take place that will change the course of the nation forever.

Another Homerun

Well there might not be a lot going right in the country right now but one thing I know I can count on is a great book by Mr Horton. Love this series and this one doesn’t disappoint.

Not disappointed

Another great installation in the series. Lloyds return was an awesome addition and the banjo jokes had me rolling. Can’t wait till Connor, Barb and friends join in.

Continuation of the Borrowed World

Not as interesting as most of this series. A bit disappointing. Jim's friend Lloyd was sort of just a drunk in this one. Not the redeeming nature he previously had. Randy was just mean and snarky. She previously had been a bit grumpy friend that really worked with him. Most of the other people in the book were little of what they were in previous ones. I liked the new characters,, the Woofords. Really liked those big guys and big horses. Really enjoyed that group. Becky was too snarky for what she was. Her addition could have been more interesting. On the whole, the book lacked depth. They did mention Lightspeed from the Mad Mack series by the same author on the last page. That sort of says there will be another in the borrowed world series. Kevin Pierce always does a great read for us. This was no exception.

Amazing

This has been one of my absolute favorite series I have ever read. I would highly recommend it. I wish it was all available on one set so it only cost one credit. Oh well, it was so worth it!

Give me more!

I can't wait to dive into the the next book. These people have become family. I love the banter, and the seriousness. Though it's fiction, we can all learn a thing or two for own personal relationships, and preparedness for our own family's safety, security and survival, whatever travesty may come.
I find Mr. Horton is educational as well as entertaining. Mr. Horton and Mr. Pierce are a winning combination!
