One Second After

Imagine if the world as we knew it ended how would you react. In One Second After by William Forstchen he tells the story of the after effects of an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP).

You know I was going to like the locale as it is set in Black Mountain North Carolina. An EMP has hit and the novel deals with the after effects. The author does an excellent job of educating the people about the effects of an EMP.

There are many bad things that will happen if an EMP hits and the author does an admirable job in dealing with it. I think he takes a little altruistic viewpoint with some of the government characters, but sometimes a little positive outlook is good.

I believe this book was written as much to educate people about the impact an EMP could have as much as the storyline. The author is dedicated to getting the word out. I think this book along with Ron Foster’s that we have talked about before is shedding new light on EMP’s.

Hopefully we take heed as a nation before it is too late.!
