Another amazing installment in this franchise.

Great story. Great performance. 100/100. Truly one of the best pairings of source material and voice talents on the platform. On to the next one!

The Rise of FAS-- I Mean FREEDOM

This Series is More than the some of its parts. At times it is difficult to tell where one starts and another ends.
This Installment showcases the second term of President Sinclair. The Elections of 1927 {C.S.A.} and the Elections of {1928} respectively.
The Crash of the Economy in 1929. The Resurgence of Extremism in light of said Crash.
And so much more politics.

However I do have some Criticism; I lot of crazy stuff just happens off the Page. Canadian Uprisings. The Rise of Action François. The Mexican Civil War and some stuff with Japan.

I think because all of the Soldier Characters have moved on to other things, We can't get too much regarding the Frontlines of any conflict anymore, Also they gotta move through 10 years in 20 chapters so some stuff is gonna get skimmed over.
But IDK sometimes it was wanting of more details.

But on a more Positive note; I liked that we got to see a bunch of the Characters who started as Children grow up. I can tell they're gonna become POVs in future installments and setting them up here just makes its better. It Gives us more of a connection to the Next Generation. And in the same vein it's really cool to see technology develop more, The Starts of Film and Radio and Automobiles alongside a cultural Evolution. It's Bul-- I mean SWELL.

I Really Love this Series and I intend to keep reading.

Filler

American empire series isnt bad, its entertaining but I cant recommend these to anyone. They're too long and too much filler. Performance is excellent as always. I hate the mcgregor family with a passion and cant wait until mary blows herself up. Good new pov characters besides her dumb ass tho.

Freedom party stays catching dubs!

Freedom! freedom! Can’t wait to see what happens in the next book. Love this series!

Good stuff, poor production

The story and narration are excellent, but as unfortunately the norm for this series the mixing of the audio is awful. Lots of odd pauses and absolutely NO management of subchapters - one sentence will be from one character's perspective, and the next second you're in an entirely different one.

5 stars!!!!

loved this book so much
harry turtledove is great and the performance was amazing !!!!! 5 stars!!!!

Another great installment in the series

Turtledove is really a master at the Alternative History genre. Of course, it's supposed to be an analogy to 1920s/1930s Germany but the way the author paints the story in English and in an American context is well done. It's easy to see modern populists also coming through when he paints the main character: Jake Featherstone in this story.
