Jailbreak

The Bushwackers

by Chris Bostic

Supply shortages and boredom have taken their toll on the rebels, splintering the group. Not to mention a tough winter of brutal weather and light foliage. At least the roadblocks have grown quiet. Another government offensive to clear out the park seems unlikely.

So the rebels decide it’s time to make a return to the city, intent on reclaiming a foothold in Gatlinburg (and eventually beyond) for the remaining good citizens of the land.

Spring brings a return of greenery to the Smokies, but the rest of the world remains scarred. It’s up to Zach and his prepper family to make a foothold back in civilization, if they can stay out of prison.

Also from 2019, my biggest, most popular release was a three book series comprised of Prepper Mountain, Shadow Warriors, and Jailbreak. The novels are essentially wilderness Red Dawn-style adventures set in the Great Smoky Mountains.

Prior to my newest series, my standalone novel, Creeper Falls was published. It's another classic teen action/adventure that's even more heavy on suspense: http://www.amazon.com/Creeper-Falls-C...

Before Creeper, I released Complex Three, the third in a YA, SciFi, dystopian thriller series. It all started with Savage Hills, an edge-of-your-seat story about teens trapped behind enemy lines. Even if they could, they're not sure really want to make it back to so-called friendly territory. Check it out here:
http://www.amazon.com/Savage-Hills-Ho...

Prior to that series, my latest book was Murder Cove. While not a huge departure from my usual outdoorsy wilderness survival adventures, this one has a bit of an indoors Die Hard feel too--and a nice dose of humor.
On Kindle and paperback.

One of my more recent releases, Game Changer, is a float trip gone wrong. It's perhaps a bit like Deliverance...for teens.

Then there's the trilogy, which was finished in 2015. Hard to believe it's come to an end, starting with...
Fugitives from Northwoods -- a dystopian, action/adventure novel:
http://www.amazon.com/Fugitives-North...

Then there's Book 2 in the series, Rebellion in Northwoods. Find it here:
http://www.amazon.com/Rebellion-North...

And, finally, Return to Northwoods. The conclusion to my three year labor of love. Out now in ebook and paperback.

Reviews

[Eileen Gorman · Rating 2 out of 5]

Disappointed

I liked the books but was really disappointed with the ending! I would have liked to have known if the country was invaded, or what happened to the government, or the town Zach and his family were living in. Did Spotted Owl take over the town, did he and mouse remain estranged.
It feels like the readers are just left hanging. No real ending to the book.
Again, very disappointed.

Very well written characters, almost normal shy sulking teenagers, at the same time battle hardened young men and women. Facing a pause in the apocalypse they're trying to make a return to town. Much less action this time, and yet many more surprises along the way.
At first I thought this was the last of a trilogy, but now see this as a gritty cold spring path along the much larger arc along the way to rebuilding civilization.
One cautious step forward, from cover, to cover, I'm sticking with this story. I hope you will too.

This is the 3rd and final book in the series. Well written with good chjqracter development, I enjoyed the series. I will read this author again.

Glad the series is over, very disappointed Bostic could have a better job in my opinion.
