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.
Customer Reviews
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.
So bad
I should have looked more closely before buying this. The Newt Gingrich intro was a bad start, but then it got worse. The writing is terrible, the character development is even worse.
Lion or Sheep, a must read
The author does a good job of making you think about our vulnerability as a society a must read for all patriots.
