The Last Full Measure (Divided We Fall, Book 3)

By: Trent Reedy

Narrated by: Andrew Eiden

Trent Reedy brings his action-packed, provocative trilogy about the second American Civil War to a stunning and stirring close in The Last Full Measure. In a YA trilogy like no other, Trent Reedy has raised the most primal questions of our national existence: Do we owe our greatest loyalty to our friends? Our state? Our country? Our party? How do we reconcile our individual rights and common needs? What keeps us all united - and what happens if we fall apart?

Now, in this third book, the Second Civil War has come to an end in Idaho. The Feds have taken the fight to other fronts, and Danny and his friends are free of US dominance. But that freedom comes with considerable costs, from Danny's disturbing flashbacks to the war, to the Brotherhood of the White Eagle, whose "security" for Freedom Lake looks more like outright thuggery. After Danny makes a shocking discovery about the Brotherhood's final aims, he and his friends lead a group of townspeople on a dangerous journey across a ravaged Idaho, hoping to build a better society of their own, and fulfill the dreams they had in what once was the United States.

Constant Action

I thought it was a well written story. There was constant action to keep you pulled in.

loved it

good series good lesson. a lot to think about.. a lot of truth about government

just tell the truth

great story. really well written and mostly plausible. my only complaint is the predictable stereotyping of the militia. just once I would like to see a book tell the truth about who militias are and what they do. I've been in the militia movement for about 5 years. during that time I've met and trained with a couple hundred guys and I have encountered all of 1 racist in all that time. and that one was quiet about it. I've known militiamen of all different colors and backgrounds and that racist crap is not welcomed.

exciting!!!

I couldn't stop listening! I really didn't expect much and, boy, was I wonderfully surprised! Great performance! I might just listen to this one again!!!

Great book

Great book love the little news reports. Shows you whats happening in the rest of the world and makes it more realistic and adds depth to the story

Great end to a great trilogy.

More than just an audiobook. This was a fully immersive experience. The voice acting was great and the story was rounded off in an unexpected way, but still finished at a great spot in the timeline.

My new favorite book

I have never wrote a review for anything before but this book deserves a review. I started reading this series for a book report and I kept on reading because the books are so good. You find yourself becoming involved in the book and attached to the characters and the author finishes the series off extremely well but I wish there wasn't an ending to this trilogy.

Excellent series!!! Book 3 finishes it out perfectly!

I read all three books in the series. Each one was well written, captivating, and a pleasure to listen to on audible. Book 3, the final book in the series, did an excellent job closing out the story. My time spent listening to each of the three books was time well spent.

Not as good as the first two

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Liked the first two books, didn't like the turn this one took. Thought he was trying to keep an even line between left and right until this book. His just another leftist artist, was hoping for more centrist. The production of these three books, was very well done. Wish there were more like them.

Would you ever listen to anything by Trent Reedy again?

Maybe.

What does Andrew Eiden bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I think I would listen to anything he narrates.

Do you think The Last Full Measure needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No, I think I could have ended at the second book.
