How the end may happen and you wouldn't even know

I liked the people and how they coped with nightmaress that came trying to claim all for themselves

story line seems believable. lived how the good guys had to work with the bad guys.

Failed story line

I like apocalyptic stories, so I am pretty versed in the way things go wrong leading to an EMP event. The author took us down the path with a good premise for the story. However, even early in the story you begin to notice a failure to grab the roots of the story and carry through the tough parts. In this case, each time one set of characters comes to a “battle” with the bad guys, the author tip toes around the edge of the event and drops you at the end of it.

Some internal hints:

They sailed on a sailboat that is surprisingly owned by a character they meet…and the ship is amazingly large enough for four adults and a ball team of teen boys! Yachts may not have that kind of room! And do we see (read) a single event of the journey at sea? Nope.

The two character teams are merged back together…around a battle that isn’t even told by having the parties relay how bad it was after it was over. I mean really???? Where is the story? All the lead up only to drop flat. I haven’t read a story this bad in my life. So disappointing. The reader did a good job. But you can’t fix this one

Can I give this zero stars?

The entire series of "the Sopranos" had less stupidity and foul language than one half chapter of this book was waste your time with money
