Fantastic & satisfying end to an epic trilogy. If you haven't read the first two, do it now!
In a ravaged world, a former Army Ranger and his loyal Golden Retriever lead a desperate mission against an alien overlord, testing the bond between humanity…and their best friends.
Three months after the Draun invasion, the world is a wasteland. Cities lie in ruins, billions are dead, and civilization teeters on the brink. Micah Taylor, his loyal Golden Retriever, Grover, and their allies journey north through the devastation, guided by an underground resistance of dog-lovers. Their goal: Los Angeles, where they hope to unite with Praxion’s team and strike at the Draun’s heart in Tokyo, now the seat of the Visionary’s power.
Meanwhile, Praxion leads a team on a globe-spanning quest aboard their ship, the Prowler, hoping to restore a team member who has been unconscious since absorbing the ancient souls of the Lost Tribe. Instead, they awaken a new and ancient ally determined to aid in their fight against the Visionary and save the souls of their fallen comrades.
As these two courageous teams converge, they face not only the twisted telekinetic might of the Draun but also an army of nightmarish biologics and the Visionary himself. In this desperate battle for Earth’s survival, loyalties are tested, new alliances are forged, and the unbreakable bond between a man and his dog is pushed to its limits.
#1 Audible and New York Times bestselling author Jeremy Robinson delivers a heart-pounding conclusion to the Good Boys trilogy, blending epic battles, emotional depth, and unexpected humor. Good Boys - The Visionary is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of friendship, love, and loyalty.

Epic Finale As Only The New God Of Science Fiction Can. Robinson has had epic finales before (SINGULARITY, PROJECT: LEGION, FAMINE), and yet this man continually out does even his own insane storytelling abilities. Truly, his creativity knows seemingly few - if any - bounds, and he is always surprising in what influences he brings to bear on any given project.
Once again, we find ourselves dealing with the near immediate aftermath of the last book... as we jump straight into the action of this one. And what action it is. Spanning the globe and breaking a team into smaller chunks... and yet bringing them back together in surprising and inventive ways. Along the way, I'm pretty sure Robinson does as much as possible to gross everyone - but particularly his Audible narrator - out... and yes, if you have a somewhat weak stomach, there will likely be more than a few gag moments for you. But there are also going to be a lot of rolling on the floor laughing your ass off moments... so just hope and pray to all that you consider holy that the two moments are no the same one. (And know that your prayers won't go any higher than the ceiling of the room you're in, because yet again, Robinson seems intent on making someone learn what it feels like to lose their lunch while laughing so hard.)
Full of Robinson's unique blend of action, laughs, and heart, this conclusion to this trilogy really is his best yet.
Very much recommended.
