I stumbled upon Christine Shuck's "War's End" while searching Amazon's Unlimited and it's selection of post-apocalypse fiction, a favored Genre of late. The quaint cover art and lack of any reviews on Amazon or Goodreads gave me pause.....But it was 'free' to download so what did I have to lose - Boy am I glad that 'free' was enough to make me give "War's End" a try.
This particular TEOTWAWKI read is not for the faint of heart with [spoilers?] Rape, profanity, fairly graphic violence and death, but if humankind is ever faced with a TEOTWAWKI event, history shows that the events that follow will, themselves, not be for the faint of heart.
I'm not one for penning reviews with plot narratives. Suffice it to say, this dedicated post-apocalypse/TEOTWAWKI reader enthusiastically recommends "War's End" . And with that, it's time to return to Amazon to see if Ms. Shuck's promised Book 2 is available. If it is, I'm chomping at the proverbial bit to start it immediately, no matter the cost.
