299 Days The Community, the third book in the 299 Days series, reunites Grant Matson with his family after his wife, children, and in-laws accept that the only way to survive the Collapse is to flee the comfort of their suburban lives and join him at his isolated cabin in the woods. With riots becoming more violent, power outages more widespread, and the military crumbling, Grant and others throughout Washington State realize they must organize if they want to endure.
From the secure confines of the relocated state capitol building, to a rural self-sustaining farm, to the developing community of Pierce Point, 299 Days The Community explores the mental, emotional, and physical changes everyone must make to adapt to a collapsed society.
The years of preparing and training position Grant to lead Pierce Point as he begins to navigate complex interpersonal dynamics and unpredictable situations to help build a new community that can withstand the threats closing in on them.
Will people join forces or stand alone? Can communities successfully organize themselves in times of chaos? Will what is left of government help those who cannot help themselves? And if so, at what cost?

On page 231 of this 3rd volume of the series, a character in West Seattle is looking at the ocean. Well, you can't see the ocean from anywhere in Seattle. You can see Puget Sound, which is saltwater. Mr. Tate is allegedly a Washingtonian. This error alone suggests he is a Californian. From Seattle to Deception Pass, which is generally regarded as the northern end of Puget Sound, is approximately 60 miles. But, that isn't where the Pacific Ocean begins. Nope, now you must transit the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The distance to Cape Flattery, at the extreme NW tip of Washington, is about 85 miles. Past Cape Flattery, the ocean at last! The distances are all from nautical charts. Driving is just about as far.Hard to believe the protagonist's side wins working with this kind of faulty intelligence. The only reason I have all of the books is because I used to live in the area most of the story is set in and my own narcissism has gotten the best of me. My advice is for Mr. Tate to find a really great editor and turn this sprawling mess of a series into something more condensed and cohesive. The story itself is solid, it just needs some guidance.

299 Days The Community edition by Glen Tate Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Imagine a nine inning baseball game where you have to exit the staduium and then they charge you another ticket to return every inning. Moreover, the starting pitcher is starting to tire, he's not as sharp, his command is off, and his velocity is down.
It's getting harder to buy the next book. I was riveted after the first one and read Book 2 right away. I thought about it a bit more before buying Book 3. This one is shorter yet. It's well beyond time for the author to back off on the political lectures and get on with some plot development. Some character development would be nice too.
Still, I've given it three stars and will likely buy the 4th book just because I'm addicted now. Take my advice though kid - don't start this series unless you get all four of teh first novelettes for the price of one novel.
The third book of Glen Tate's economic collapse series 299 Days called The Community is a fascinating exploration into the nature and function of both large and small groups of people and how they form a society. With the world coming apart at the seams in an inflationary depression, many of the functions of modern government have been returned to the community. This is especially true in the Pierce Point area where Grant, his family, friends and neighbors reclaim the burden of responsibility for maintaining their own well-being. Each level of the community, starting with the family unit, cooperates to address specific concerns like safety and security. Grant Matson, being a politically insightful person, uses both his "team" of civilian gunfighters and his ER Doctor wife as political capital to gain access to the Pierce Point's inner circle. The Community is formed with the premise of providing safety and security for its residents. In contrast, we watch as the government of Washington State, operating from within a National Guard base, is actually using the collapse as an opportunity to increase their control by dissolving many of the remaining civil liberties. They seek to enhance their power by seizing private operations such as the transport and food production in order to provide basic necessities to a large portion of the population, namely the larger urban centers. Additionally, the government has taken over the savings and retirement accounts of millions of people in order to pay for its new safety net. It is really an interesting contrast, with Grant and his people rallying to become more self-sufficient and the government seeking to actually increase public dependence as a way to maintain control and to increase their power. The Community is a very well-considered and detailed account of how new communities may form and how the powers that be may react to a widespread economic collapse. On another level, The Community really is a common sense exploration into the very nature of human cooperation.
Book number three of a ten book financial apocalyptic series. I read the book in the POD (print on demand) trade paperback form. I think that the series has been capped at ten books. I have ordered the fourth and fifth books in the series and am reading the series interspersed with Jack Reacher books which was recently recommended to me.
The Washington State government has slammed to a halt as the state financial picture crashes and then the federal government EBT cards fail to fund. The protestors in Olympia and Washington DC have torched the government area in those cities, effectively shutting the state and federal governments down.
The writing was better than the first book which was kind of stilted. Maybe the author hired an editor. Or two.
BTW, the 299 days author is quite the entrepreneur. He writes his books in 200+ page increments and sells them POD (print on demand) on Big River for $10 to $15 each. So if I buy the entire series, it will cost me around $140. And 70% of that goes into his pocket. Other authors would have made the series into 3 or 4 $15 books. Some people call that a ripoff, I call it maximizing your income.
The author lives in very blue state, Washington state, and his writing reflects that. Everything that happens there is on the down low. I am also sympathetic to his writing about having to conceal his prepping from his very progressive wife. And his name is a pseudonym to conceal his identity from his employer.
The 299 day author feels that the singularity is quite close. I disagree. I think that we have ten to twenty years before we get to reboot the financial system in the USA. But, I am assuming some linearity in the accumulation of federal debt. I may be dead wrong about that, I hope not. And the author has a website and blog.
