Awesome series!
There are three parts. Basically, an EMP, ended life as we knew it. All items, with computer chips and electrical items quit working. Only older vehicles, planes and radio equipment worked.
People panicked, robbing, looting, killing.
The ones that could escape, did.
You really came to care about these brave survivors, and their journey.

Defending our Home
Book 1 was very good and interesting but it was book 2 that got me. the Russell family were so in tune with each other. All of them had a great sense of humour. Wish more families were like that.

Makes you appreciate all modern amenities
Reading this series makes one aware of all that we have to lose should an EMP happen here in America.

Totally Unexpected and Enjoyable
I did not expect to find three different stories in this set.Each as good as the last one. Engaging characters, plenty of action, and a welcome feeling of real humanity. Each tale is a stand alone but I wouldn't mind a sequel to the last one. I'd like to see Jacob come into his own. Only thing preventing five stars is the need for a professional editing job.
