The solar event left destruction in its wake, but nothing more destructive than what it did to awaken evil amongst men.

Marcellus Maggiano, restauranteur-turned-warlord is a prime example of just how distorted the new reality is. Luring able-bodied men with promises of food, drink, and power, the sycophant brings them under his command to do his bidding and prey upon innocent women for insidious purposes.

Conrad Drake’s ex-wife is among Marcellus’ many victims. With her current beau Tom by his side, they scout abandoned warehouses in hopes of rescuing the women, but their quest will not be easy. The man with an iron grip on society will not go down without a fight. Are they up to the task or will their daring mission to right an unimaginable wrong lead to their deaths?

Well written with believable characters. Even the main character isn't bigger than life, he's just a prepper who feels the need to help his son save his mother, the main character's ex. My only problem with the book is the editing, there were numerous punctuation errors, sentence structure mistakes, and, once, even a gender changed. Don't they realize that these errors detract from the book, at least for some readers.

Another good story of EMP survival!

I liked the story and it was refreshing not to have cuss words and blood and Gore like so many authors put in their stories. It teaches us that families come first. You don't need to have all the fancy weapons.

Here we meet real people. No one has all the answers or super prowess in how to shoot a bad guy or how to rescue people. Very well-written and engrossing story. I'm looking forward to the next one.
