He stumbles on a cache of food large enough to feed his family for months but encounters another group who claims the resource for their own, setting in motion a conflict that will spiral of control.

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.

A well done second book in the trilogy

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

Better than most in this genre.

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?

What happened between Baltimore & WV?

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.

first book was better
