DEADFALL: The Fallen Forest
Trees begin falling across the Northeastern United States. Only a few at first, but a storm several days away promises a disaster of biblical proportions. Downed trees blocking streets and trapping tens of thousands in their rural homes without electricity, food, and communication with the outside world. Flooding from tree clogged rivers and streams also begin to swallow roads and homes. The government is desperate to save its people, but most must save themselves, as the carnage marches on...

Tom Graham left school at 14 without qualifications. He is a smoker, and says that writing the Life on Mars novels is the nearest thing he's had to a regular job since he got banned from driving.

Imagine waking up to trees being knocked over by the slightest breeze with no explanation. Would you make out ok or do you, like myself, live in an area that is mostly wooded? Imagine your home surrounded by trees, that once fallen, cause massive flooding from backed up streams and rivers. What would you do first? Would you try to ration the food you have and wait for help or would your try everything in your power to get out without knowing if there's any place to go?
The book jumps back and forth between characters each dealing with their own tree situation. Some trying to get out, some trying to get in to save their family or help others that may be trapped.
As much as I enjoyed the book, I feel liked it jumped from character to character too quickly. There wasn't enough time to form any kind of bond with them because you were only given a few pages at a time. And while I wasn't given time to form a bond, it seemed like the characters formed them too quickly.
