Should have read the other reviews before buying this. There’s plenty of prepper fans who obviously love the level of detail that the author goes into, but I really don’t care if character X has a Magnum Somethingorother or just “a pistol.” I liked the character of the grandmother, but the letters from her made me feel as if this was the tutorial part of a video game. Other than reinforcing the beliefs of preppers (I’m guessing Muslims are always the bad guys in these fantasies), the story didn’t seem to serve much purpose (what I could get through, anyway). Couldn’t finish.
