The Final Day

De: William R. Forstchen

Narrado por: Bronson Pinchot

The highly anticipated follow-up to William R. Forstchen's New York Times best-sellers, One Second After and One Year After, The Final Day immerses listeners once more in the story of our nation's struggle to rebuild itself after an electromagnetic pulse wipes out all electricity and plunges the country into darkness, starvation, and terror.

After defeating the designs of the alleged federal government, John Matherson and his community have returned their attention to restoring the technologies and social order that existed prior to the EMP (Electro-Magnetic Pulse) attack. Then the government announces that it is ceding large portions of the country to China and Mexico. The Constitution is no longer in effect, and what's left of the US Army has been deployed to suppress rebellion in the remaining states.

The man sent to confront John is General Bob Scales, John's old commanding officer and closest friend from prewar days. Will General Scales follow orders, or might he be the crucial turning point in the quest for an America that is again united? As the dubious Federal government increasingly curtails liberty and trades away sovereignty, it might just get exactly what it fears: revolution.

Very good story and deliver

There are warnings signs in this story, and there not just from a foreign threat which is serious enough. It also contains a much more serious warning of domestic threats. Not all threats are premeditated threats of aggression or subversion. The most consequential are the passive threats of willful ignorance or denial. Those of refusing to recognize and react to personal responsibility and involvement in the shaping of our nation. You will recognize all of these threats here and the latter always proves to be the most consequential in the long run.

Really makes you think...

This, along with it's prequels are must reads for all. How will you prepare? As for me, plans for just in case needs to be really thought through, because this story isn't one that "hapoens to other countries, not the US".

Places you in the middle of your own home town.

This books spurs the question, "What would I have done if it were me?"

The historic references remind you that however bad it gets for us, others went through similar circumstances.

great book
