About this listen

This novella by NewYork Times bestselling author William R. Forstchen imagines a horrifying scenario where, in the course of one day, the terrorist group ISIS carries out massacres in schools and on highways across the United States. With a surprisingly small but well-organized and ruthless force, the nightmarish devastation brings America to a state of near paralysis.

Bob Petersen arrives with his daughter at the middle school in Maine where he teaches, expecting another regular day but worried about what recent ominous news reports might portend. Suddenly his school - along with many others across the United States - is under attack. Gunmen burst in, slaughtering children and adults alike.

From the ISIS leader in Syria to the murderous rampages throughout the States, Day of Wrath reveals with chilling effect how national panic and paralyzing terror can bring a mighty country to a near standstill. Petersen's fight to save lives and stop the merciless gunmen provides edge-of-your-seat drama. This provocative work should stimulate an intense national debate.

this is a story that feels like it could be true. the content is horrifying but written from a perspective that is heart warming and sincere. the opening words were true, its hard to say I enjoyed this book but I am awestruck but the skill of the author. I wanted to turn off to avoid to stop listening but I quite simply couldn't. basically thank you, this book opened my mind and entertained, what more could I ask.

gripping, horrifying, eye-opening, amazing

Brilliant and scary book by a great author! Great narration as usual from Bronson Pinchot!
My only criticism is that it should have been expanded into a longer novel :)

Brilliant

Wow I got this book for free after listening to one of his others and was not disappointed although hard hitting it keeps you drawn in with action and emotion and is well in the realm of possibility.. Good listen

Wow hard hitting

Truly horrifying and yet amazingly well written. A story but with everything taken from real life, you could see this happening.
This should be on every free thinking persons reading list.

Horrifying

This is a frightening and truly disturbing description of, what could very well be, a future forecast that can easily happen anywhere in western society. That is if we do not wake up to what is actually going on right now world wide.

Every gruesome event described in this harrowing, but complusive and impossible to put down, novel has already happened somewhere in the world in the past ten years.

The reason we tend to ignore, yes ignore and turn away from these horrors is that very rarely does it happen in our own back yard !

We have become so used to seeing death and destruction over the past 30 years, due to faster news reporting plus more uncensored violent imagery, in movies as well as on tv and more importantly the internet.

The boundaries between truth and fiction, for some, has become so blurred that when we hear about the latest atrocities, on the news for example, we seem to be so desensitised we can forget (ignore), what we have seen and go about our daily lives within minutes.

It takes an event such as 911 to wake up a large proportion of the population to the difference between truth and fiction.

If you, like I, have actually witnessed, in real life, what we see reported on the news it becomes indelibly printed in your mind and can not be ignored, ever again.

I can not recommend this book highly enough. The Audible version is an excellent companion, the narrator is to be congratulated as well as the author, as I found it to be one of the best audible narrations I have ever listened to.

This should be essential reading to all western politicians and the bleeding heart brigade, especially those, who try to justify any of the appalling acts carried out by terrorist groups like Isis and all who follow this evil and twisted ideology.

A timely warning of what some say is inevitable !

Made me cry...multiple times. Very good story, but so sad. Would definitely recommend this story.

Such an emotional story

Entertaining thriller, but heavily promoting some frankly rancid political views: Tucker Carlson and the NRA would love this. I mean, if you can't produce real empirical evidence that arming teachers is a good idea, why not produce fictional evidence? The evil baddies are Isis, but the author clearly believes that woke pinkos are not far behind them on the evilness scale… accomplices, pretty much. Any interrogation of the darker aspects of American patriotism and American military intervention? Nope, of course not. But hey, it was an entertaining story, and free.

Entertaining if rancid
