Publisher Description
A post-apocalyptic thriller of the after effects in the United States after a terrifying terrorist attack using electromagnetic pulse weapons.
In a small North Carolina town, one man struggles to save his family after America loses a war that will send it back to the Dark Ages.
Already cited on the floor of Congress and discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a book all Americans should read, One Second After is the story of a war scenario that could become all too terrifyingly real. Based on a real weapon—the electromagnetic pulse (EMP)—which may already be in the hands of our enemies, it is a truly realistic look at the awesome power of a weapon that can destroy the entire United States, literally within one second.
In the tradition of On the Beach, Fail Safe, and Testament, this book, set in a typical American town, is a dire warning of what might be our future and our end.

100% worth every minute
This is fantastic. The only correction that needs to be made is when characters refer to magazines as clips. Other than that, I was hooked for 10 hours. This is a masterpiece.
Great
Fantastic book. Really gets you thinking about how fragile our society really is. Very entertaining and thought provoking.
Fantastic and gut wrenching.
There are a lot of people that should read this book, while it is a work of fiction it portrays what could become a real life event that would bring our country to its knees. While we argue over politics and feelings we leave ourselves open to everything that the countries that truly despise us can and maybe will throw our way.
