First off the 1-2 star reviews are hilarious. The indignation and judgement!!!! Everyone is absolutely entitled to their opinions…. Even the very woke sjw’s:)
This book was fun and thought provoking. It has strong characters that span a pretty wide swathe of personalities. Right off the bat though I could picture similarities between friends, family, coworkers, people I’ve run into and the characters described.
I often have different views than even my favorite characters but their views are thought provoking. It makes for some lively discussions with my wife and our friends:)
I work in disaster management. I’m a Readiness and Response Coordinator over the 24 counties in KY so some of this hit a bit close to home. I’m almost a mantracker for my county SAR and the book made me consider some of what is in my get home bag as well as some of what we have set up at our homestead:)
It was a lot of fun and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as me and my folk have. I highly recommend the whole series and the others in this setting by Franklin Horton. Pierce is an amazing narrator as well!
