Days of Panic is the first book in a new post-apocalyptic series by Jack Hunt, a genre he is quite familiar with. As is typical for this type of book, we follow multiple characters as they struggle to survive in the wake a massive disaster. In this case the disaster appears to be from an EMP, though the actual source of this disaster isn’t definitively stated, only speculated upon. I don’t know whether we’ll ever find out for sure in future volumes or not, and depending on how Jack continues the series it doesn’t really matter, after all it’s all about survival in the new world, right? The story itself is not all that original, but then most books within the genre tend to be somewhat similar. When it comes to these kind of books it’s all about the characters, and I am happy to say that I quite enjoyed the cast of characters Jack tossed together for this book and look forward to seeing what he puts them through in the future.
Kevin Pierce does a spectacular job, as always. He is THE voice for survival fiction.
