    I am currently reading this book so I'll hold off on my final opinion until I've finished it. It seems to be overly detailed on the guns/ammo descriptions IMHO. I enjoy the story he's telling but just call a pistol a pistol.

    Yeah, that's kind of how Unintended Consequences was. Overly descriptive about fire arms to the point that it would take away from the story for the non-gun appreciating reader.

    He updates it occasionally, the copy I read was giving specs on how he'd upgraded from the old 486 to the brand new pentium with 256 total megs of ram...

    A good read and some decent learning in there, but it's still alot of fantasy.

    Default in real life

    if things went really bad... it would take 3 days to go to complete crap...
    all the grocery stores would be empty, medical care would be bad to none at all, gas would evaporate in a weeks time, city people would start to die by the hundreds of thousands in 3 weeks time across the country.... then the water and electricity would go in one way or the other most places...
    basically 30 days from day 1 and 60% of the nation will have starved to death or died of thirst, lack of medical help or needed drugs, or crime.

    if you think because you got ammo and knives your going to make it...your sadly illusioned.

    how many of you today could just get up, walk into the woods, never come back and survive , much less thru winter...????????

    yea..

    Here's another good one:


    A Strategic Action Thriller set in the United States of America in the year 2023. After many years of economic depression, a terrorist act fractures the country. The stage is set for another Civil War as three factions battle for control of the pieces. The story takes place in many areas across the country, but centers on one extended family caught between the struggles of the rival factions. The reader will glimpse into the minds of the leaders of the factions, as well as common Americans, and travel along with them. "Operation SERF" is Book One of the trilogy.

    Sample: Operation SERF, Chapters 1-5 (PDF)
