Cyber Armageddon #3

Reign of the Locusts: A Post-Apocalyptic Techno Thriller

Rate this book
A maniacal war lord. A rogue military commander. Two insufferable evils and one impossible choice.

After a brutal attack on their neighborhood, Kate McCarthy's group struggles to cope with the loss of several members. The military promises to abolish lawlessness, but if that includes confiscating all firearms, the cure may be worse than the disease. There only hope may be in an unholy alliance with a local gang leader.

This is Kate's last chance to salvage a glimmer of hope from the ash heap of civilization.

Kate reaches out for help from a nearby friend and learns of yet another wave of cyber-attacks. The next strike threatens to finish off the nation which is still reeling from the previous assaults. The federal government and society at large are hanging on by a thread. Like a plague of locusts, the coming round of computer viruses will destroy the last vestige of civility and order, leaving nothing but chaos and death in their wake. Kate and her group are determined not to give up, but they have a tough road ahead. Survival is by no means guaranteed.

As with all works by Mark Goodwin, this book contains no profanity and no embarrassing sex scenes. However, if you're offended by conservative principles and references to Scripture, this book might not be for you.

So Believable!

This series was so well written, you would expect to read the same in today’s news. The characters felt like family, you’ll cry right along with them, holding your breath right along with them, and wishing them more, more time, more resources etc... Just don’t expect to get anything done till your done with the last page, you will not be able to put it down!

another Awesome series of books!

The author's ability to make hypothetical situations come to life is a great skill. He has the ability to foresee the societal, political, economic and cultural conditions of America + apply Biblical Verses + prophecy to weave together amazing stories of the fight to survive despite the darkest situations. His character development is extremely realistic + the mix of conversations and background narrative provides the reader w a real-life viewpoint. It certainly is not a stretch to see these situations playing out in our lifetimes. America has sadly been infiltrated by atheist ideology, communist-marxist theories + complete moral decay across several generations. American ideals + classic patriotic themes which once were the backbone of our country are now being demonized by mainstream media, entertainment industry + educational institutions all over. Its up to the families who still believe + Follow Jesus Christ... Those whom fear God's Judgements to fight against the evil and darkness of this fallen world. We must teach our children and young generations to realize the sacrifices of prior generations... The threats which faced them + how America was truly born from a miracle from God. We can't let Satan's evil and tricky ways to steal more souls. We must stand to The Truth + stand for God's Word. The Bible is our playbook. We must prepare our minds, our homes and families for this pending and even already started battle between good and evil. Mark Goodwin's books have motivated me to continue in my quest to dive deep Into God's words + to prepare. My hope is not in this world. Its not in any politician... Only in the love and grace of God Almighty..who sent His only unique son to save those who believe in Jesus' sacrifice. Accepting Jesus' sacrifice as payment for your sin debt changes a persons outlook on life and our true reason for being here. We must spread the Gospel message + live lives that are pleasing to God. We will always fall short...but having your heart in the right place is the first step. Trusting in God's providence is extremely important. We were all born at specific times in history so that God's Will can be done on this Earth as it is in heaven. The end times prophecies in The Bible + the end of the current age may be around the corner.... Prepare yourself! Stay in God's Word- learn the prophecies and know the "signs of the times". Jesus warned over and over to NOT BE DECEIVED! MARANATHA!

The events in this book could start tomorrow!

This book makes you start thinking about what could be coming down the pike. Everybody needs to be ready and needs to start asking God what it is that they need to do to prepare. These type of books start to make you stop and look around you and realize that we're living out some of the things in these books already. We are just walking around living our lives and taking for granted that everything's going to be okay the next morning when we wake up. This book really makes you stop and think about some of the things that are going on in your life with money, the government, laws being passed, and politics . You start to realize, that we need to open our eyes and start paying attention. No foul language no explicit sex, and supported by scripture all the way through the book the book! Thank you!

I gave this 3 stars. I really didn't care for this 3rd book in the series. I just couldn't believe some of the things that were happening and these events in the book just seemed to be there only to extend this out to another book. The main character was like a god that had powers beyond a normal human. Everyone around her was dieing in this apocalytic world, but she could take down anybody physically or with a gun, with ease. She was always the go to person as an expert in all the rescue planning, like she was also a military genious as well, and of course she was more beautiful than any of the other women. She also always made the right decisions, survive no matter the decision ,and I could go on. Pretty far fetched. Like watching a Marvel movie with Thor, or Wander Woman, or Aquaman, or use your imagination. A real superhero. This book was very preditable.

This was a great series!

What would you do if you were in this situation? It's a good question and this book provides some good answers. We seem to be on the eve of destruction. Everything in this book is possible. But are we truly prepared if the worst happens? It seems that a good community and lots of preparation can help. But we must listen to God's warnings and act when called upon.

Right on target!

Mark is a true master storyteller. He knows exactly what to do to get the reader to sit on the edge of his/her seat of excitement! Loved this series but kinda wish Mark would continue this series with a similar ending of the Days series. There's still quite a bit of story left in this current series. Always look forward to reading Mark's books. More please!

Sorry to see them go

I hope his isn’t the last in the locust series but if it is I’ll remember all the characters with fondness. This was a fascinating and exciting series and it’s so good to read a nice clean book even though he portrayed characters that could have spoken repulsively. Another excellent series Mr. Goodwin!

My least favorite of your books/series

Author really has a "thing" for heroines.
This series is all about his new female superhero.
I've enjoyed most of his series but this one is too lopsided.
Sha must haves killed a couple hundred men in battle but is never wounded. Everyone else on her side is either killed or wounded.
This is just a bit too much over the top.

Awesome

I love how Scripture is used as an introduction to each chapter! It has enough action to keep the guys happy and enough family interaction for gals! It paints an all too believable picture of what a time like this could produce!

If you're keeping up with Scripture and what it says about end times...you will like this! Can't wait for the next in the series!

Excellent apocalyptic story

Goodwin writes very believable, informative novels. Since I’ve been in programming and IS for over 20 years, I know exactly the dangers that exist and how precarious our very world is. These books bring all that to life. Prepare and be alert!

Hated for these series to end. I loved the ending. However, the ending of the series could be the beginning of another.
Keep writing Mark Goodwin.

What our future could look like

Reading this series made me realize the reality of what our future could hold. I wrapped up reading the final chapters and It was coincidental the election results were finalized.

Just finished locusts 3 seares. Thank you Mr Goodwin for another page turner, as usual you have your finger on the pulse of what could be our future. Only God knows, but you give others pause for thought about what the future could hold for America.

Trusting God In All Things

That’s what this book said to me. And there some “Things” to have to Trust God thru! I really liked this approach to the Apocalypse. It was unique and inspired. I just wonder; could it really happen like that?
