It’s been eight years since the Change rendered technology inoperable across the globe. Rising from the ashes of the computer and industrial ages is a brave new world. Survivors have banded together in tribal communities, committed to rebuilding society. In Oregon’s Willamette Valley, former pilot Michael Havel’s Bearkillers are warriors of renown. Their closest ally, the mystical Clan Mackenzie, is led by Wiccan folksinger Juniper Mackenzie. Their leadership has saved countless lives.

But not every leader has altruistic aspirations. Norman Arminger, medieval scholar, rules the Protectorate. He has enslaved civilians, built an army, and spread his forces from Portland through most of Western Washington State. Now he wants the Willamette Valley farmland, and he’s willing to wage war to conquer it.

And unknown to both factions is the imminent arrival of a ship from Tasmania bearing British soldiers....

Great series, Sound effects too loud

I love this whole series and read it long ago. I am listening to it now because I wanted to get reacquainted with it. Though the graphic audio part is fun, often times the sound effects are too loud for me to be able to tell what the narrator is saying, and it is very annoying and distracting. Especially since there is so much fighting. But even the music played in the background is too loud for the spoken voices.

excellent

enjoyed the book, loved the graphic audio. I recommend it to everyone. thank you for this amazing book.

Good Book, Bad Title

The story is interesting and yet I can't get over the misleading title. Overall the book sets up what will be the protectors war, but has no actual war in it. Ultimately this book is filler for setting up the war; fun to read and good characters but filler none the less.
