About this listen
This special box set edition of The Borrowed World Series contains the full text of books 1-3 of the best-selling series: The Borrowed World, Ashes Of The Unspeakable, and Legion Of Despair. This series has garnered tens of thousands of 4 and 5 star reviews.
If society fell apart, could your family survive? Jim Powell thought he was ready. He was a regular guy who travelled a lot for work and hated every second he was away from his young family. But when ISIS operatives unleashed a coordinated attack on America’s infrastructure, his entire world shattered. The electrical grid collapsed, communication networks were damaged, critical bridges and dams were destroyed, and major fuel refineries have gone up in massive fiery clouds.
Now, with an Executive Order halting fuel sales to the public, Jim Powell finds himself in a terrifying predicament. He's trapped hundreds of miles away from his family, and with thousands of stranded travelers and scarce law enforcement across the country, the miles between Jim and his family become a brutal gauntlet where the rules of a civilized society no longer apply.
Jim is a prepper with years of planning under his belt, but as he puts his preparations to the test, he soon finds that training for a societal collapse is very different from actually experiencing one. If Jim wants to make it back to his family in one piece, he'll need to find the strength and brutality to meet this new, dangerous world head-on—even if it means rising to unimaginable levels of violence.
Downloaded over 100,000 times, The Borrowed World is a series that you'll find yourself listening to more than once.

Story
When a series of devastating terror attacks brought down the United States, Conor and Barb assumed they were safe in their compound. They had everything they needed. They were armed and highly trained. But then, Barb was kidnapped. The kidnappers didn’t know why Conor was known as The Mad Mick. They didn’t know the fear and respect his name invoked in the shadowy underworld of covert operations. They didn’t know that when it came to protecting his family, he was without conscience, without compassion, and without equal. But they would soon find out.

25 hours worth of survival
I enjoyed this 3 book box set. It was written in a way that was very realistic! I discussed some of the ideas with my husband who is a wannabe prepper. We can do better! I loved the gun and ammo talk! In Canada we can not legally carry even with a permit! If an EMP or terrorist attack happens here, we're in trouble!
The characters in the books are believable and likeable (for the most part!) and the situations are realistic. I don't think a guy like Jim (main character) would work in an office environment. He's the type of guy who works with his hands. Someone who is a builder, welder, farmer, or works in construction.
The narrator did a fantastic job! 5 stars across the board!

Frightening Display of Humanity
One of the best books I’ve ever read and or listened to, truly a reflection of humanity under stress.
The story portrays a realistic view of what May or will happen when the world turns.The book is entertaining it compels you to listen and think about what would you do under these circumstances.
A definite thumbs up, we’re now listening to part 4-6 a continuation of the series

This book exceeded my expectations
I’ve listened to, and read many prepper fiction stories. Of all of the books this one is up there with the best of them and after going through three books I was still enjoying them. I cannot help but poke a few holes in narratives though. The only major complaint I’d have is that in situations like this, there would be international response. Maybe on the coast there is a UN force or something and it will become apparent in other books.
At any rate this book is 10/10 and so is the narration! Thanks

Excellent series
The first book starts off with action almost immediately and the other 2 keep it going. I’m invested in these characters and must continue the series - always a sign of a good book for me. It’s well written and well narrated. I would definitely recommend.
