Beyond All War
Wars end, struggles persists. An unseen war reaches the far north of Canada. One extended family, relying on the matriarch’s instincts, flee ahead of the attack to seek refuge at a long-forgotten hunting lodge, hoping the deep isolation will protect them. A former military leader, seeing the impending anarchy as an opportunity to establish a realm of his own, consolidates survivors he deems useful and carves out an existence by looting and pillaging the remnants of civilization. Years later, when a young man’s desperate desire to return home causes these two fledgling and disparate societies to collide, the outcome will determine which world order will reign.

True to life characters. Engaging plot.
I enjoyed reading this book and had difficulty putting it down. The characters came to life for me and the story evoked a wide range of emotions. I was sad when I finished it.

Pretty good story
Liked the setting and characters. This was close to our time and scarier because of that. It moved along, wasn’t too graphic for this woman.....evil stupid men led by an evil smart man. Try it out on a rainy weekend.

I won this book in a goodreads drawing.
Cli-Fi novel about how climate change causes all of civilization to break down. People try to deal with it. Focuses more on normal-ish people than a lot of these sorts of books.

A Good Read
I didn't think I would enjoy this tale but I was wrong . I had a little trouble adjusting to the 10 year jump into the future but once we got there and story got re- established , I began enjoying it again. The fear of an evil military presence following an apocalyptic event is great fodder for fiction , and Eric Keller handles this aspect to the story well and made it believable.

Post Armageddon
Fore telling of society after the great war. Cruelty mayhem and despotism run the remaining societies. Well told tale of power and struggle reaching to a final outcome. The one beginning cause of the plot not adequately addressed.

Perseverance
A great tale of human reactions when faced with life threatening situations. Both the evil of ego and greed and the goodness from seeking out the positives in life

Global warming???
Not into the whole global warming hoax. I was hoping for something a little more believable. I was disappointed though.
