Dave and Sarah Anna Speer had been preparing for Armageddon for years. They thought they'd covered all the bases, and had planned for everything. It never occurred to them that the single thing they had no control over was the timing. Sarah was on an airplane with her young daughters when solar storms bombarded the earth with electromagnetic pulses. Everything powered by electricity or batteries was instantly shorted out and would never work again. Dave was suddenly alone. He was also unsure whether his family was dead or alive. He assumed that the airplane stopped working and plunged from the sky. But it was scheduled to land in Kansas City at almost the exact time everything stopped working. Had they landed in time? Was it possible they survived? This is the story of a man facing Armageddon alone. It chronicles the things he does to survive in a newly vicious world. It also includes Dave's desperate and poignant diary entries to his wife. Just in case she did survive, and somehow makes it back to him to find he didn't make it himself. From the author of last year's best sellers "Final Dawn" and "Countdown to Armageddon" comes a new tale of one man's journey through hell... alone. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

First off I want to say I did enjoy this book and will continue the series. Secondly I just want to point out parts that stood out in my mind and caused me to question the author.
Minor spoil alert on certain parts but not anything to ruin the book
1- I can not understand why the main character spent all the time and energy on the screws in the fence for security. A total waste. Anybody wanting in will bust through the fence.
2- why make such a point over the mayonnaise? Why take a chance of getting sick front it being spoiled or eating too much? You have plenty of rabbits and veggies plus all the other food. No need to worry about an open jar of mayonnaise?.
3- why would you freeze canned foot prepping for an EMP? Why not stock pile and replace with new cans as you eat them so they don't expire during prep?
4- I didn't quite understand how come he was in such terrible shape and so soar after moving 10 sheets of 1/2" plywood when he is a home building contractor and also works in a cabinet shop.
5- It's Armageddon, why worry about the house when moving the plywood? He should've prepped better for moving assistance with sliders or rollers etc.
6- There is no way he could've determined the bullet angle on the fence planks when it is only 3/4" thick, I felt that part was useless info.
Summery of my review: I know it looks like I picked the book apart and seems I didn't like it because of my bullet points, that is not true. I did enjoy it and would've given it 4 stars if not for the above mentioned items that broke my concentration. ( )
