Patriot Dawn: The Resistance Rises

From the back cover:

The United States has descended into Civil War.
The storm was rising for some time, a Resistance in the hearts of American Patriots to the strangulation of liberty by creeping authoritarianism. 
The scene was set. It just took a little push. A terrorist attack on the United States leads to war with Iran, followed by collapse, as the economy goes over the cliff.
The final blow is a widespread opportunistic Chinese cyber attack, taking down the North American Power Grid.
From the ashes, the Regime emerges. Liberty is dead.
What remains of the United States of America is polarized. 
The Resistance Rises.
Jack Berenger is a former Army Ranger Captain, living in northern Virginia with his family. Following the collapse, they fall foul of Regime violence and evacuate to the farm of an old Army friend. Jack is recruited into the resistance, to train the fledgling forces in the Shenandoah Valley.
The fight begins. 
Live hard, Die Free.
Resist.

Patriot Dawn was written as more than just a novel. The concept was to use a near future scenario of collapse and civil war as a vehicle to portray real combat and tactics; to bring to life the concepts described in the manual: ‘Contact! A Tactical Manual for Post Collapse Survival’. It is open to opinion which is the best order to read them, but either way they are designed to be  complimentary to each other.

Contact! A Tactical Manual for Post Collapse Survival

Live Hard.

Die Free.

  8. Thank you for your generosity.
    I am very much looking forward to reading this.

    I have heard good things about your Contact! book also and will be ordering the dead tree version as soon as I am done typing this.

  10. Thanks Max…I’ve been reassured my hard copy is already on order by my better half. Will start reading shortly….

  12. Thanks for the good read. finished it in two sittings. Bought all your books but this one. Didn’t get around to it yet, so thanks again. Looking forward to Pt. 2???

  13. Enjoyed this book tremendously, thank you for making the Kindle version available. Will review this for you… you will be writing a part 2, right? Kind of left us hanging!

  14. I just completed Patriot Dawn. Thank you for the free download. I look forward to the sequel.

    I do have wilderness survival skills but don’t have any military experience, and this book illustrates that a resistance movement won’t be a cakewalk. I live in Northern Virginia, 1.5 hours west of DC, and I’m very familiar with all the landmarks in your book scenes.

    I’ve been reading into the minds of TPTB monsters since the mid-1970s. In retrospect, I would expect the Regime to burn down the Shenandoah National Forrest to flush-out/burn-out the resistance fighters. I would also expect them to use a tactical nuke on an insignificant city, like Harrisonburg or even DC, rather than fight to save their Regime’s control of a region which provided no strategic incentive (other than vain principles) for being held. The Power That Be modus operandi: If we can’t control it then the enemy won’t either… nothing is sacred. The implication of Regime complacency in utilizing China and Russian troops as a combined policing force for disarmament of USA citizens is also a big possibility being realized today. The national leaders, are in actuality Internationalists, and have been in bed together for centuries.

    You neglected to mention biological (poisoning of water sheds) or dirty bomb warfare, which most likely would be used as a Regime’s last resort to quell an overwhelming resistance movement. All is fair in love and war?

    However, putting my comments aside, your written knowledge of modern warfare is phenomenal. Excellent read!

  15. Damn Max, you seriously want to get serious! This book is what got me to train, prep, and read. Now you put it out for free? I hope a million down load it, read it and come into the fold. You are a man, sir.
