Good book. Covers the hardships without getting too far into the gruesome that would surely come after a "pulse".
Keeps you interested, makes you think.

I enjoyed the book. It is your typical end of world though some of it was kind of far fetched, I would have thought it would be much more violent. There was some danger but If the fall of civ really happened I think that there would be a lot of deaths and the author didnt really get into that

Survival in the Louisiana and Mississippi wetlands after an EMP burst shuts down civilization. The characters begin a little stilted but develop throughout the novel, and the value of preparation & skills are pointed out here and there as the story progresses. A few things appeared overdone, particularly the *complete* lack of surviving tech (no Faraday cages, basements or caves in the whole region?), total breakdown of civil authority without visible attempts at continuation, and coincidental meetings among the main characters. Much seemed geared to keeping the story line going rather than developing characters around the unfolding disaster. It was an interesting read, in my view, subject to the above considerations.

This book was so full of unnecessary detail and repetiveness I was able to skim the whole thing in a few hours. Might be good for 10 year olds.
