About this listen

New, blistering waves of attacks are here….

….And Burning Hollow is forced to go on the offense.

Will the holler survive the fallout, or will it become the enemy's primary target?

With resources dwindling, the death toll mounting, and foreign troops laying waste to the east coast cities, a strike team comprised of Burning Hollow and Smokey Hills’ fiercest warriors will attempt the impossible: They will wade into the apocalyptic wasteland to meet and attack the enemy at their own stronghold.

But fortune doesn’t always favor the bold; sometimes the bold die fastest, and sometimes they die hardest.

With other factions fighting the same war, and small military detachments operating as mercenary hit squads joining them, the odds of success could turn in their favor.

But could they also be marching blindly to their deaths?

The most ferocious warriors are forged in the hottest fires, exposed to extreme pressure, and forced into tactical positions with nothing left to lose and no pathway to victory. Rowdy, Cody, and Taylor are about to become those warriors, putting them closer to their deaths than ever before. But, in the end, will everyone survive? Will Burning Hollow survive?

In matters of life and death, especially in a post-apocalyptic war zone, nothing is guaranteed.

Experience USA Today Bestselling Author and #1 Best-Selling Post-Apocalyptic Fiction Author, Ryan Schow, at his very best in this tour de force dystopian survival series!

Note: A Cold Reckoning is the fifth novel in this ongoing post-apocalyptic survival series showcasing the highs and lows of America as she fights for her life against enemies foreign and domestic. While there is hope to be found in friends, family, and loved ones, this epic tale follows a ragged group of survivors as they fight to hold the line against a host of emerging threats.

*This post-apocalyptic thriller series has little to no coarse language, explicit sex scenes, plagues, or zombies, but does contain violence similar to that of a PG-13 action and adventure film. Perfect for fans of A.G. Riddle, Kyla Stone, Franklin Horton, Jack Hunt, Boyd Craven, and Bobby Akart.

Ryan never let’s you down.

Another great book from Ryan Schow always leaves me wanting more. Rowdy and the group mixing it up to save a country in a way we would all like to think we would.

And the Invasion continues

Finally here it is and once again I'm waiting for the next installment wondering what is going to become of all the beloved characters I've gotten to know. This segment, not unlike the others, is full of moral dilemmas as the tale twists and turns threw Eastern Tennessee. How will it all end? Will the people of Burning Hollow remain safe? Will they be wiped out like so many others? What does America's adversaries have in store for our heroes? Tapping my foot and waiting for book six. Please hurry!

Mr. Schow does it again!

Ryan knocks it out of the park once again. Fantastic characters and their interactions are spot on for brothers and dysfunctional family. How everyone hopes the apocalypse will be, neighbors coming together and helping each other.

Great book as always

Ryan you never disappoint! The books was great. The storyline has all the feels to it, sadness, happiness, defeat, victories, love and hate all the makeups of what I love in a book. Keep up the great work and can’t wait for the next book.
