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.

What did you like best about Dies the Fire? What did you like least?
Overall the story and variety of interesting characters keep this book going for me. I would have rated it much higher, but could not get past the author's insistance on making some of the "good" characters pagan satan worshipping witches. I would have thought the author might have been intelligent enough to know that this type of plot line would not appeal to 99% of the readers. Other than that, seems like a pretty realistic view of how society would react and collapse following an EMP type of event with a interesting twist. Great perfomance by narrator.Good story and characters

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Yes and no. I think the story idea is great as a concept but didn't like the writing or performance very much. It jumps around too much with no transition. Even a pause at times or a chapter break would have told you that the story was going to change locations, characters or time. Many times the story would be at the height of action and then stop. Later on you might find out what happened but not fully.Has Dies the Fire turned you off from other books in this genre?
Pretty much.What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
Entertaining reader and good with different voices.Do you think Dies the Fire needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
No. Could be continued but the highlights of the concept have been covered.Has potential

At least in this book there isn't so much radical right wing fundamentalism. Granted there is Paganism, but there are also christians and people with no faith at all. Isn't that more what the world really consists of anyway? They all find a way to live or they dont.
The narrator is decent, not everyone can be Jim Dale when it comes to accents.
excellent book
