Spoiler alert: So I have read the whole series. I liked the way it started. Interesting take on a pandemic. But the character development is not good. Especially by the last book, the characters do things out of character and against human nature. Worst of all is the lack of knowledge of the weapons by..
Review from Shoot Like a Girl →
The story moves a bit slow for my taste. Lots of internal dialogue and grammatical pauses. And the whole ‘bikers on a scavenger hunt’ in the middle of an SHTF scenario just seemed stupid.
Review from Without Mercy →
I really loved this book. First of all, the narrator was perfect for this story, and he made a gruesome and horrific story just human enough that I actually felt very sad for Dee and her family. I didn’t want it to be over; I enjoyed this book so very much that I think I’m..
Review from After the EMP: Darkness →
One of the main characters was a wishy washy whiner through at least half the book. But the storyline is plausible in most ways except for the cars still working. It’s also jam packed with a ton of interesting scenarios and info. I’m definitely looking forward to the rest of this series being transferred to..
Well done with another win in this series. Even better than the first book. Can’t wait for Run Like the Wind. Convincing and well written bad guys. Great action and plot. I listened to this with my stomach in knots and didn’t want to hit pause.

Review from Erebus →
I recently had the opportunity to sit down and have randomized conversation with the author and we did actually also discuss this book. When he says “It’s my best work by far” I believe him. This well researched book paints a solid picture and I fell right into the world. I actually felt the cold..
Review from Erebus →
A little different than the normal “prepper fiction” but wow what an amazing ride. Great book and a great performance. With all the outbreaks around the world today this story seems totally plausible.
Review from If I Can’t Have You: →
The authors are careful not to besmirch the victim’s family, but this impulse makes the story somewhat ridiculous and unbelievable. It was a total unpreventable accident that their grandkid went to the emergency room with injuries twice in the first weeks in their custody (and anyone upset by this is being unfair to them); they..
Any additional comments? I’ve always enjoyed post-apocalyptic stories of survival, so I wasn’t surprised to find I enjoyed this book. The characters are flawed in relatable ways and are easy to form bonds with.My favorite aspect of this book is how it doesn’t have the same old “find a place to hole up, then struggle..
