Free Falling

by Susan Kiernan-Lewis

Overview

When Dave and Sarah Woodson take a much-needed vacation with their ten year old son John, their intention is to find a relaxing, remote spot to take a break from the artificial stimulation of their busy world back in Florida. What happens within hours of settling in to their rural, rustic little cottage in a far-flung spot on the coast of Ireland is an international incident that leaves the family stranded and dependent on themselves for their survival. Facing starvation, as well as looters and opportunists, can a family skilled only in modern day suburbia and corporate workplaces learn to survive when the world is flung back a hundred years? When there is no Internet, no telephones, no electricity and no cars? And when every person near them is desperate to survive at any cost?

Editorial Reviews

This is an excellent apocalyptic page-turner where the petty and typically American fears of the (truly heroic) heroine...faces a horrific life-threatening situation, and a bunch of really evil baddies, in rural Ireland. The story is truly credible and well told; it races along with a lean and mean narrative where brutality and violence is set off with some nice feminine, maternal and wifely touches and American introspection. It's a movie just waiting to be made.

Fear of Falling also made me question myself. Could I be strong and resilient like Sarah? Could I do what I had to do to survive? Do I have the knowledge and skills needed to be like Sarah? Would I do what Sarah did to ensure her and her family's survival? Fear of Falling made me think. Do I as a American think I am entitled to the best of everything? Is that part of what makes Americans American? There are a lot of questions that came to me as I read. I'm not sure I have the answers.

Oh, I enjoyed reading this book so very much, a page turner, great characters and I want more, I want a 2nd book for this one. There are a few characters that I'd like to see how they made out in their lives. This is a must read!!!!!!

Goodreads - Joanne Bozik

I truly enjoyed this book, could not put it down. The characters were realistic and endearing. I felt very connected to Sarah and her struggles. The plot moved quickly, was entertaining and evoked quite a bit of emotion for me. It also was a quick read, I was able to read it in one sitting which I liked a lot.It was an amazing account of how life would change if all our luxuries were taken away.

Goodreads - Ryan Williams

What a thought-provoking book! Imagine having all your electronics...ripped from you. Harder yet, imagine being in an unfamiliar country when a disaster happens. This book tells the story of how a family...transitioned into survival mode after an electromagnetic pulse, while vacationing in Ireland. I would highly recommend this book to both teenagers and adults as it showed how a family worked together once all forms of of today's distractions were removed from the picture. A great read!
