A well done second book in the trilogy

This second book in the trilogy was well written and a good narrative. There were some unexpected twist and turns but overall it was good.

Better than most in this genre.

Good story telling but a little short. Can't wait to listen to book 3.

What happened between Baltimore & WV?

The author is good. But her left out and didn’t mention how he and his family got from their home back to Wyatt’s farm in Morgantown. How about a 1.5 book telling that story?

Great book!

Sad to see it come to the end. Thankfully it carry's on with book 3!
Yah !

first book was better

I read this because I was super interested in what happens next for Jack. this ended up being more of an old western tale than any sort of survival story. it was good, however I'm not that into westerns so it did not hold my interest as well as book 1.
