Alone #7

Payback

Rate this book
Three steps forward and one step back. Those words, more than anything, described Dave Speer’s personal journey of late. Eighteen months have now passed since a worldwide blackout has brought humanity to its knees. Most haven’t survived. Those most vulnerable were the first to go. The weak followed closely behind. It seemed that to make it, one needed to be at least one of three very strong, very lucky or very well prepared. It helped to have a something to accomplish of tremendous importance. Dave was indeed very strong. The United States Marine Corps had made sure of that. As a prepper he was much more ready than most. Lucky? Hardly. But he was used to making his own luck. In this installment we follow Dave as he leaves the chaos of Albuquerque behind him and strikes west toward California. He’s getting closer now to finding his kidnapped daughter. He can feel her presence in the air. But not so fast. Things haven’t been easy on him since this journey began. He couldn’t allow himself to think they’d be easy for him at the end. Every time he thought things were going his way he’d been sucker punched. And things weren’t about to change now.

Love love love this author.

I've read all the books in this series at least 4 times now. Same with his other series'. Great author, wonderfully "clean" story teller, awesome characters and plots. Only issue I have are the names of characters. Every series has similarly named people. Gets a little confusing when reading every series one after the other. But I adjust!! Recommend to all readers, including preteen end-of-world enthusiasts. Looking forward to the next book in this series and his other!!

I hate it when a good book ends

Book 7 is excellent. The storyline is progressing in a manner that keeps you entertained while sitting on the edge of your seat. The characters are likable so much so they become your friends. You will be looking forward to the next book on the series.

I love preppers. They are the survivors and are equipped with the right attitude to help others.

Dave Speer is up there with the best - strength of character, a man with a purpose and a serious struggle across the USA.

The stories are captivating and filked withwonderful little cameos.
