I have to say this is the BEST post apocalyptic thriller I have listen to. The level of detail and believability this trilogy is mind boggling and I commend Mr. McDermott on what must have been a grueling amount of research. Although no political parties were mentioned the scenario was completely plausible. I loved the ending and as a tribute to Mr. McDermott’s skill of crafting believable actors I actually shed tears at the end. Bravo on your Masterpiece sir!
