「⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 Star Review...」☀︎ CHAOS SOARS☀︎ Is the third full length post apocalyptic book in the (EMP Collapse) series by new to me author Christine Kersey. The follow up journey of our main characters Alex and his wife Melissa. Spoken in dual POV's.
Each books picks up where the previous left off, and due to this they are definitely best to be read in order. These are so easy to get into, and so hard to put down. I'm so glad this series was pointed out because I'm really enjoying them.
I started this one in bed last night and I'm just about finished it, loving the on going adrenaline pumping narrative this series is providing me so far, each book is spiking up a notch in action..
This starts off where the morning after the attack occurred on the neighborhoods prized food bank with one survivor from that attack detained for questioning to gather information about the traitor that's sharing information back to that group and finding out where they are based.
More blood shed, kidnapping, brutality.
The only positive outcome the EMP had created within its destruction was the strong bonds and friendships the neighborhood was creating, new friendships and old forming.
Even though there is a cop amongst this ragtag group he doesn't overshadow the other characters with his skill set, he relies on the others to have his back and vice versa, he doesn't try to take leadership in any situation which I really like about this series.

I am enjoying the series.
That said, this book was a little annoying.
Golly who could have predicted that when both mom and dad leave on a dangerous mission, things will go horribly wrong.
How does a neighborhood full of Mormons not have much food storage?
Why is the church not mentioned at all? Nobody has services? Nobody prays?
Whatever happened to the greenhouse they built?
All THAT said, it is refreshing to read a story where the whole neighborhood doesn't pull together. This neighborhood is full of drama and a-holes, which seems pretty realistic and emphasizes how much a few bad or selfish people can destroy a community during a disaster.

-“No more cops. No more laws. Just the survival of the fittest.”-
Book three in the series about a broad EMP collapse continues the high action story of a neighbourhood trying to stay alive and protect itself after the society-ending event leaves everything and everyone in deadly chaos. Kidnapping, hostage situations, houses being burned to the ground, murders… expect anything and everything! This book is part of a series that must be read in order. It ends in a cliffhanger and all the books must be read in order. I can’t wait to read what happens next!

Good series
I enjoyed the characters, the setting and the story line. The author kept her characters names and personalities throughout the series..which is difficult for so many of her peers. I hope there at least one more book. A truly good read when you want to read more about the peopke.

I'm already on the third book and I'm quite disappointed. I thought it was going to move on to something better and more involving, but what I feel is that each book is a complete repeat of the last. I find it extremely boring to read reports and descriptions of actions without the author ever going further than that.

Great
Another great book by Christine Kersey. I loved this book and all the characters in this series. I can’t wait to read next book by Christine regarding post-apocalyptic books. I would recommend this book and all Christine’s books.

Chaos Soars
Christine Kersey is my new favorite auther.
This was the third book in her EMP Collapse series. Makes you wonder if this could actually happen. I can't wait until the next book in the series come out.

Bring on the next episodes
I’m loving this series! Likeable characters and the plot is good too. It’s a shame to think that this is how some people would act hound something like an EMP happen,

I have quite enjoyed this series so far, though the books seem a bit on the short side. It makes it a little harder to keep the plot moving, though this one does illustrate how hard it would be to keep a cooperative effort going in the face of such a long term disaster. I look forward to book 4.

Could this happen?
I have no doubt these things would happen. Can you imagine no phones, no internet, no tv, no electricity...Just think, how many batteries do you have?

Great, suspenseful series
I had a hard time putting this book down. It moves quickly and put you on the edge of your seat. I can’t wait until the next book comes out.

This was a great book. Four quick reads that I found very enjoyable! I really like these ‘the works is no longer what you knew’ stories, so this one was perfect for me!

Lots of typos! Some parts are cheesy, but I like the topic and want to finish the series.
