About this ebook

From the author of the instant New York Times bestseller Survivors, comes its follow-up: another lightening-paced thriller about survival in America after an apocalyptic socioeconomic crash.

The world as we know it is gone.

It’s the near future, and thanks to a perfect storm of reckless banking practices, hyperinflation, a stock market gone mad, and the negligence of our elected officials, the entire social, political, and economic infrastructure of America has collapsed. Chaos reigns in the streets, medical treatment is no longer available, and a silent coup has placed a dangerous group of men at the helm of a false government. America’s fate is in the hands of those few individuals who have the survival skills, the faith, and the forethought to return this country to the state its founding fathers intended.

Ratings and reviews

Ouch. Seriously lacking any real connection to the characters. Story is a great idea that lacks any emotion or depth. Also, the author seems fixated on including long lists of different types of guns which takes away from the story and inserts the authors obvious love of guns and amo.

This is the third book in the series that I have read, and love them all. All the storylines are intertwined, and unlike other books actually all happen at the same time. It was refreshing difference, and there is a lot of good information together from these books.

I've read, I think, all but one of Rawles' books in paperback. They were very good. F u r a Prepper u will definitely love him.
