Book Synopsis

Post-Apocalyptic Fiction by N.C. Reed
Clayton Sanders left home the minute he had his high school diploma in hand. He waited that long only because the Army wouldn't accept him without one. Now, ten years later, he's home. Home with no warning, no advance notice, no anything after being gone ten years with almost no contact with his family. Home carrying a secret that is burning him up from the inside. A secret that has pushed him to the brink, forcing him to become a criminal in order to be where his family needs him to be, even though they don't realize it yet. Because Clayton knows something they don't. Something that hasn't happened, but will. Something that will burn everything it touches. And change the face of the world forever.

Review Quotes

Author's Best Novel- M.Shaw

Good apocalyptic books have been few and far between lately. This latest by Mr. Reed is easily the best I've read this year. Hopefully, the start of a series.

The book deals mainly with a family's prepping for a nebulous disaster sometime in the near future. After first thinking it might be nuclear war, plans turn to surviving a CME. Near the end of the book, the event does occur and indeed turns out to be a massive EMP.

I look forward to the next book. I give this one my highest recommendation.
