I enjoyed this book. It shows how the government would play down the effects and lie to the people as they protect themselves. It also shows how quickly society would break down when this happens. I wanted to listen to this book because currently FEMA is now worried about this happening. With the solar cycle we are currently in, there may be a chance that this fictional book turns into reality. Yah help us if it does. If everyone would just try to prepare just for a month of supplies, that would increase our overall resilience against a tragedy such as this. Great book!
