The Change of Seasons is the seventh book in the 299 Days series, where summer has ended and reality has set in at Pierce Point. For many people, this means scrambling to survive the long winter with even less food. Some were smart enough to spend the summer preparing for the changing season and the expanding effects of the Collapse; others were not so smart, and their desperation and fear grows stronger by the day. Grant Matson reflects with pride on how he has provided for his family while guiding Pierce Point into a community that functions well on its own. Celebrating this accomplishment, Grant and others join to offer the community a Thanksgiving dinner, which is met with gratitude and exhilaration. This mood is short-lived, however, as circumstance quickly begin to unravel, beginning with the disappearance of a beloved community member, followed shortly by a self-defensive killing by another. The situation is just as bleak, or worse, in other parts of Washington State and the country, as innocent people are imprisoned and murdered, women and children become commodities, and what is left of the government looks even less like the once-beloved United States of America. As the threat of a civil war becomes imminent, Grant, the Team, and the 17th Irregulars at Marion Farm bond over their duty to protect the country and are soon a fully-formed combat-ready unity, excited to go into combat but uncertain of what will happen to them. Grant dreads what he knows is coming, but he understands that he has been called to sacrifice - potentially his life and probably his marriage - to stop the Loyalists from hurting more people.

From Chapter One to Chapter 299, thisten-book series follows Grant Matson and others as theynavigate through a partial collapse of society. Set in WashingtonState, this series depicts the conflicting worlds of preppers,those who don't understand them, and those who fear and resentthem.

The 17 th Irregulars is the fifth book inthe 299 Days series, where, i n some ways, post-Collapse life atPierce Point resembles the everyday normalcy that Grant and othersstill hoped would return. The community is organized and hummingalong smoothly, the young guys on the Team are partnering off withlocal "Team Chicks," and Grant's daughter has found a boyfriend.For most, the new reality has been accepted and a calm,self-sustaining groove is setting in.
For others, though, life is far from normal. Special Forces Tedreturns with an offer that cannot be refused. In the blink of aneye, Grant Matson has another title he can add tofather-of-the-year and prepper-in-chief: Lieutenant Grant Matson,Commander of the 17th Irregulars. Grant and the Team are whiskedaway to Marion Farm, where they will train civilians and be trainedto become a special squad in a Special Forces guerrilla group. Theslower, simple life at Pierce Point is about to disappear to makeway for a community that is well-trained and battle-ready, posed tofight the Loyalist opposition. This cannot happen fast enough,though. Gangs are growing steadily and the government is becoming abigger threat to freedom and the nation. Violence is turning intoan everyday occurrence outside of Pierce Point and it is only amatter of time before the peaceful community will need to protectitself from external dangers. Grant feels the weight on hisshoulders as he now needs to protect not just his family, but theentire community, and possibly, all of Washington State.

Chapter 168
Hit Em Hard
(July4)

The helicopter engine started up with itsdistinctive high-pitch whine. Slowly, the blades began turning,adding a second distinctive sound. There is no sound like that inthe world, thought Tom Kirkland. He got excited every time he heardit. His blood pumped. He loved that sound, which made him feelfully alive when he heard it.

Hed heard that sound plenty of times. He was aSpecial Forces soldier in the First Special Forces Group at Ft.Lewis. Most of his fellow Green Berets joined the Patriots. NotTom, though. He had a job to do and he was only able to do that jobby not joining the Patriots. It was complicated, but it was justthe way it was.

We have a credible report of a teabaggerposition outside of Olympia, Joe Brown, the military intelligence,or MI, officer told Tom. It should be a cake walk. Noanti-aircraft defenses, of course, the MI officer said to Tom androlled his eyes. Just some dumb ass hillbillies. A cake walk.

Tom nodded. He was in charge of the TOC, theTactical Operations Center, at Camp Murray. It was a military baseand seat of the legitimate government of Washington State. Hemanaged the raids that went out. He couldnt go out on them becauseof his left hand, which was severely burned a few weeks before theCollapse and was put on medical leave from his unit.

Tom heard the sound of helicopters warming upseveral times a day at Camp Murray. Intelligence reports were nowstreaming in about so-called Patriot positions throughoutWashington State. Well, western Washington State, Tom correctedhimself, the half of the state with Seattle and most of thepopulation.

The Patriots were becoming bolder andeffective, Tom had to admit. When the Collapse first happened inMay, the Patriots werent much of a factor, and they especiallywerent a threat. May had been the month of chaos; neither sidecould organize much of anything.

In June, the mayhem of the situation calmed downquite a bit for civilians. They were getting fed under the hastilycreated FCard system. It seemed as if everyone the government,the Patriots, and especially the population was settling into anew and very different routine. Not that people were adaptingeasily, just that they were adapting.

Political killings became part of that newroutine that developed in June. The assassinations started on thevery first day of that month. It wasnt full-scale military action;it was a string of assassinations with rifles, pistols, evenknives, and an occasional small bomb. The number of assassinationswas actually small a dozen or so state legislators, somemid-level federal officials, and about a hundred local electedofficials, like county commissioners and city mayors. Despite theseseemingly small numbers, the assassinations still shocked everyone.Political killings were not something that had ever been part ofthe American landscape. It was both frightening and hard to wraptheir heads around. In the beginning, the media ran huge stories onthe first few assassinations, but as they continued and became morecommon, the media quit covering them. Why continue to scare thepopulation and contribute to additional anxiety and chaos?

Tom got the daily briefings at the TOC duringthe month of June. Because of that, he knew that the Patriots werepopping up everywhere and it was way beyond a law enforcement issuewhere individual assassins could be caught and the problem wouldstop. This was a much larger, and well organized, problem for thelegitimate authorities.

Knowing a war was inevitable, both sides triedto organize militarily during the month of June. While a war mightnot have seemed inevitable to the general population, Tom and theLoyalist military planners knew what was coming. Their intelligencereports showed the formation of hundreds of small and large Patriotregular and irregular units. Most of the military had defected andnow they were getting ready to finish off what was left of the oldgovernment.

During the wave of political killings, at CampMurray there was a tremendous sense of urgency to plan a militarysolution to stop the Patriots because the assassinations really hithome for the officials there. Tom found that the military planningwas very difficult. He was accustomed to having high-tech assetslike aircraft, communications, satellite intelligence, the abilityto listen in on cell phones and read emails, and an almostunlimited supply of special operations personnel to strike anywhereat any time. That was no longer the case. Almost all the high-techgadgets Tom formerly had at his disposal were inoperable, needingparts and personnel that were no longer around.
