    I read the first 299 Days over the past couple of days and it's well worth what Amazon is asking for the Kindle edition. I'm excited to get caught up on the series now.

    You gotta finish it Jim. Great book. I too finished Patriots recently and as mentioned above, a little too heavy on the religion. For those that are big on the Christian faith, it will mean more to them but when the world goes to hell in a handbasket people are going to need something to keep them going. For some, it is their belief system or moral compass. For me, it will be a willingness and drive to survive; something I picked up along the way. Patriots was also very big on gear description, talking about what the group procured prepper wise and how they trained. For those looking to be part of a commune or survival group, it has some added benefit from a planning standpoint.

    Default Re: Those that recommended 'One Second After'

    finished lights out a couple days ago. Kinda long but decent read at least for me. But good over all.

    sent from my fancy dancy phone that'll soon be outdated or broken

    It'll be one of the best books you've read in some time Sparky.

    SPOILER ALERT. don't read anymore if you haven't read it.

    His kid kicking it was tough. Overall it's something a lot of folks need to consider as Plan A. Granted the whole interaction between different "opinions" in a large group can and will cause friction, if not outright dissent. HOWEVER, those folks can either agree to disagree, or move to the other side of town. I could see the firefight happening on the local I-25 overpass. Besides guns you need a few knowledgeable medical, water, and other skilled folks
