Summary

What is the true cost of security?

Amid a wave of unprecedented terrorist attacks on American soil, a panicked and inexperienced president declares a state of emergency and hands over control of the country to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

The quiet and unassuming Administrator Hall soon becomes the most powerful man in America. Determined to stop the attacks, Hall enforces his order across the US, using a newly empowered State Guard to deal with anyone who gets in his way.

As totalitarianism descends across the country, battle-weary reporter Jack Emery is faced with a terrifying new reality when friends, colleagues, and sources are imprisoned before his eyes. Among weekly terrorist attacks, FEMA atrocities, and the clamp tightening on every element of society, Jack becomes one of the few struggling to stop the madness.

This time though, he's on the wrong side of the law and fighting the very government he's trying to save.

FEMA Threat

State of Emergency by Steve P. Vincent is a gripping thriller that has some romance interwoven. The premise of this book with FEMA taking over the United States government was very original and thought provoking in a scary manner. I loved the imagery and action in this book. Todd Menesses did a great performance. I could hear exactly who was speaking. He had the right emotions and voice inflections for this thrilling suspenseful listen. I highly recommend this book. This is the second of the series and a standalone listen. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.

State of a good book

I enjoyed this book, like the first book it is slow to start but soon has you hooked as you are never quick sure which direction the author is going to take the story and with a few twists and turns it keeps you on your toes. This is the second book but you don't need to have read or listened to the first to enjoy, I did like the fact a few of the original characters made it into this book. The story jumps from different character perspectives so you always was knew what was happening and why. A great political thriller that so easily could come true.

The author choose to use a different narrator from the first book and it took me a while to get use to the new reader. Even though he did a good job and you could tell who was speaking I am not sure Jack (the main character) needed such a deep voice and it made me laugh at the beginning.

Seriously Terrifying!

This scenario is way to possible. It could happen. Yikes! Same great characters and action packed story full of twists and surprises as the first book. Definitely worth a read!
