LOVE!!! My teen got me hooked on this genre and I admit to keeping my nose in this particular book. I have already ordered the 2nd in the series and pray the rest of the series will be in print. I do not read online.
Amazing! ( )

I have been a fan of Vannetta Chapman's books for several years. Her cozy mysteries, Amish fiction, and earlier dystopian series were real winners as far as I'm concerned. This newest dystopian series, "The Kessler Effect," piqued my interest when I first heard of it.

Most of Chapman's books are Christian and faith based. Not "preachy" but just have characters strong in their Christian faith. They are always clean reads with no foul language or "R-rated" scenes. The Kessler Effect series is not a faith based series but is basically a clean read. No "R-rated" scenes but it does have a small scattering of off-color words. The prequel and book #1 are, in my opinion, very good reads and are not offensive. The "expletives" are very few and on a lighter vein.

Now about the story line...... Set in lower Texas where it's hot and dry, the folks in the small town of Alpine notice sporadic electrical failure. Then failure of the cell service. About the same time, there is a horrific train collision nearby. They expect the government officials to come running because of the train collision, but much to their surprise it doesn't happen. Then the realization sets in that life as they have know it has ceased - no electricity, no water, no incoming food, nothing to depend on.

The local police, firemen, and officials gather with the townspeople to set a plan in motion. Soon they realize that the problem of survival is real.

I totally enjoyed reading Veil of Anarchy and am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Wow, this was quite the book! The events are so believable and definitely will make you think of possibilities of an unknown future. It was very dramatic and suspenseful.
How do you prepare for something you can not explain or did not ever expect? A small town of Alpine, Texas finds itself in a situation that closes off transportation, communication, and just about everything they depend on from day to day. The question is how to deal with all the needs and who can be trusted.

This was a great book. And I am sure there is more yet to come!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author. All thoughts are my own. ( )
