Resumen del Editor
Juniper Mackenzie was singing and playing guitar in a pub when her small Oregon town was thrust into darkness. Cars refused to start. Phones were silent. And when an airliner crashed, no sirens sounded and no fire trucks arrived. Now, taking refuge in her family's cabin with her daughter and a growing circle of friends, Juniper is determined to create a farming community to benefit the survivors of this crisis.
But even as people band together to help one another, others are building armies for conquest.

Historia
During a perfect spring evening on Nantucket, a violent storm erupts and a dome of crawling, colored fire blankets the island. When the howling winds subside and the night skies clear, the stars appear to have shifted. The mainland has become a wilderness of unbroken forest, where tools of bronze and stone litter the beaches, and primitive natives scatter in terror.

Historia
Already cited on the floor of Congress and discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a book all Americans should read, One Second After is the story of a war scenario that could become all too terrifyingly real. Based upon a real weapon - the Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP) - which may already be in the hands of our enemies, it is a truly realistic look at the awesome power of a weapon that can destroy the entire United States.

Historia
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

In the mid-1870s, a violent spray of comets hits Earth, decimating cities, erasing shorelines, and changing the world's climate forever. And just as Earth's temperature dropped, so was civilization frozen in time. Instead of advancing technologically, humanity had to piece itself back together.... In the 21st century, boats still run on steam, messages arrive by telegraph, and the British Empire, with its capital now in Delhi, controls much of the world.

Set early in his life, Conan has left his northern homeland to cut a bloody swath across the legendary Hyborian Age.

The gigantic comet had slammed into Earth, forging earthquakes a thousand times too powerful to measure on the Richter scale, tidal waves thousands of feet high. Cities were turned into oceans; oceans turned into steam. It was the beginning of a new Ice Age and the end of civilization. But for the terrified men and women chance had saved, it was also the dawn of a new struggle for survival--a struggle more dangerous and challenging than any they had ever known....

In the 25th century, humankind has spread throughout the galaxy, monitored by the watchful eye of the U.N. While divisions in race, religion, and class still exist, advances in technology have redefined life itself. Now, assuming one can afford the expensive procedure, a person's consciousness can be stored in a cortical stack at the base of the brain and easily downloaded into a new body (or "sleeve") making death nothing more than a minor blip on a screen.

Soon Alec is traveling roads he never knew existed, toward a war he never suspected was brewing. Before long he and Seregil are embroiled in a sinister plot that runs deeper than either can imagine and that may cost them far more than their lives if they fail. But fortune is as unpredictable as Alec's new mentor.

He had no idea that his first visit to New York City would also land him in the middle of a domestic terror attack, forcing him to flee Manhattan in a desperate bid to survive. This was no ordinary terror attack. The Movement, in a misguided attempt to seize political control of the USA, unwittingly invited the destruction of their homeland.

Great Book, Great Narrator
I had never read S.M. Stirling prior to listening to Dies the Fire. It captured my imagination and was thrilling. The narrator, Todd McLaren was perfect for the role and it was easy to tell which character he was. The story begins with a world that has suddenly become "changed" Suddenly, after a white flash, no machines work, no electricity, no computers, no phones, planes fall out of the sky, cars and trucks stop, trains stop and firearms no longer work. The story is the changed world that comes out of this event and how people react. Those that live and those that don't. It is very compelling and makes you wonder what kind of person YOU would be if this really happened!

My favorite overall series
I have listened to the change series more times than I can count. SM Stirling manages to very much encapsulate the thought process of a modern military man in a believable fashion and the fantasy/sci-fi elements work perfectly with the cast of characters. If you are a fan of post apocalyptic fiction, general fantasy epic or just a well told story I highly recommend this series. Todd mclarren is among my favorite audible narrators and is the perfect person to portray mike Havel.

Eh
What did you like best about Dies the Fire? What did you like least?
As a post-apocalyptic cheap thrill, it works fine. But the Wiccan/Renfaire trappings got quite tedious in comparison to what they added to the story. All of the characters are conveniently super knowledgeable of their ancient familial warcries and obscure national military traditions? Okay. Sure. If you're looking for a story with a modicum of believability and a minimum of eye-rolling and groaning, this isn't it. If you're looking for a story to hold your attention during the morning commute, this one will work fine. I was hoping to get a lot of mileage out of the Emberverse Series, especially being located in Portland, but I think I'll cut my losses after this enjoyable but dime store novel-quality story.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
It's interesting to think what modern humans with the advantages of historical knowledge would do if returned to medieval conditions.
Which scene was your favorite?
Some of the Bearkiller battle scenes were pretty well done.
Did Dies the Fire inspire you to do anything?

One of my favorite series but...
The downright odd pronunciations of several words and names in a story I am very familiar with made it hard to listen or suspended disbelief. Some were understandable if you don't know Gaelic but some not uncommon English words were pronounced very strangely.

A review of the Change
I have nothing critical to say of the performance given by Todd McLaren in the rendition of the story; this review's opinion towards flaws is specifically of a story perspective. Todd McLaren does a solid job in his performance.
That being said Stirling is as a wordsmith good at what he does. The writing of this book is solid work, and hence a solid three stars despite certain flaws. Dies the Fire, the book being reviewed, is book one in a series and I'm loath to grade for flaws that became more pronounced in the latter novels. However it is also true that bluntly put Stirling's world building suffers some, but more than that his 'wicca fetish', and that such treatment overshadows the dealings of the MacKenzies in the novel detracts from what is otherwise a good opener to a world turned upside down.
It is in my opinion that this book is best taken by itself. That it is a solid story, and should not be weakened by the mishaps and silly prophetic things and railroading of the Change that occur in the latter books of the series.

Great Story
I really enjoyed this story. I found myself sitting in the car just to hear more. When i finished this book I raced online to buy the second title.
