Publisher's summary

What would you do if the grid went dark? Vince Walker is looking forward to the beginning of the summer and a visit from his son Cy. But while picking up his son at the Indianapolis airport, the country is thrust into nuclear warfare with the detonation of multiple EMPs. With fires burning out of control and the loss of the electrical grid, the entire country is thrown into chaos. Vince and his son, Cy, are forced to fight for their lives and escape the city as the world they once knew crumbles around them. As they try to return to their hometown of Cloverdale, Indiana, or what’s left of it, they struggle to accept their new environment. Forced to come to terms with the harsh reality of the nuclear attack, they press on through what is quickly becoming a post apocalyptic wasteland. Challenged with the absence of utilities and emergency services, they must save who and what they can before it’s too late.

Wanted to like it.

Disliked the current politics and disparaging comments about young people. I read this genre to escape this.
Good voice.

Dislike AI voice

Basically a good lite story, moved a little slow and predictable. I liked the characters, although a little naive.

Virtual Voice Not Too Bad

Sometimes the virtual voice drives me nuts and I don’t finish the book. At the beginning, there were a couple of my stakes, but not bad after that. Good story.

lack of fallout in nuke story

I loved the characters and plot line so PLEASE REWRITE THIS BOOK with accurate scientific information!
It's a heroic move to have Vance, his son, Fred and daughter to seek out survivors, so what do they do?
put on paper masks and complain about the sooty air?
They should have all had diarrhea and bleeding internally and dying with Acute Radiation Exposure!
I thought everyone knew to take cover indoors by as much mass between them as possible for at least the first 48 hours when deadly Gamma radiation comes right through the walls to do more than X-ray them.
Unless an author is willing to deal with it, he or she should not write about nukes and give false assurance to listeners that all they have to deal with is sooty, grimy air.
Secondly, all the characters should have taken off their clothes to decontaminate themselves and shower, if possible for a good long while and then worn clean clothes.
Also,it's uncertain whether EMP can cause widespread fires. In 1859 they caused some telegraph offices to set fire but the EPT effect rediscovered when Hawaiian communication equipment stopped in the atmospheric nuke tests in the late 40s didn't do much damage.
Your writing ability would be amplified by accurate scientific information.
Please research fallout!
