More of a hunt
There was an EMP attack, then entire book was about finding a daughter and a Vet who was getting Alzheimer's. Didn't really enjoy, I skimmed through.. Disappointed

Enjoyed Story Line
Story line kept me interested but frustrated with inconsistencies. There were a lot of them along the way. A lot of contradictions. Like first the school was 10 miles away. Then it was 3 miles. First there were 4 caskets and then 5. There was smoke at one of the cabins but then it was deserted, Madison was going to walk to the next cabin then got on her horse, they had to ride the horses through rough terrain but there were roads to the cabins, etc. I am a detail person so the inconsistencies did bother me. But the weren’t any spelling errors like a lot of the books have so a positive. Also a lot of repetition with Madison continually saying she was going to go through hell to find her daughter every other paragraph it seemed.

A "gotta read"" story
This book scared the crap out of me!! I know it was fiction but I was gripping my kindle so hard, it sure didn't feel like ficfion!
Remarkable description of the terror of an EMP! I felt transported to a he'll on earth. The fires, the killing and the human society that becomes a "me" attitude! The starvation and the hopes of mankind spiraling in to total madness!
Don't read this alone, without tissues or just before bed! I kid you not, this packs a punch that you'll never forget!!!!!

The Silence That Changed Everything
A quiet, thought-provoking novel about a sudden global loss of communication and the emotional fallout that follows. Instead of action or explanations, the story focuses on isolation, uncertainty, and how deeply people rely on constant connection.

A heart wrenching story of bravery and grit.
This is an amazing story of the power of a mothers love and determination. Then you add in the courage and bravery of a small child and a teenager--you can't put it down!

A child is lost. A mother must find her in a world destroyed.
I enjoyed the premise of this book. It needed more action to avoid being repetitive. It contained numerous discrepancies that an editor or first reader would have brought attention to. I remained committed to the end.

Excellent read
Gripping, kept me stuck to the book. Another good end of the world tale. Madison could have spiraled less. Every step made her lose it. That part was a bit annoying. Still a good book.

I had to speed read through a lot of it. Did enjoy the parts that were pertinent to the actual story.

The world went quiet
The story was very good. I could visualize many of the things the characters faced. It felt plausible that this story could happen.

good read but.
This book had so much going on that at some points the long winded explanations detracted from the story. I got bored reading the background stuff.

great book. very believable storyline
This was a great book, highly recommend it. William Stone always has very believable storylines, which is what makes me a fan of his work.

Loved the journey of mom finding her daughter, and the old man was my favorite character. Reminded me of my papaw :). I would recommend but I don’t think I like this more than apocalypse books, not enough action (even though she went through a lot). Easy read, really liked how the chapters were short so I felt that I was getting through it in a timely manner! I didn’t not like how long it was lol, it definitely could’ve been condensed.
Not sure if I’ll read more from this author but an interesting EMP book!!
