Exciting book about what could happen in contemporary America if there were a repeat of the greatest earthquake in U.S. history- not on the west coast but in New Madrid, Mo.

Starts with the very real possibility of a major earthquake in America's heartland, and goes on to build a well-written page-turner. Excellent fast-paced, edge-of-seat thriller.

Heart pounding in places. Very technical in others. If you like reading "end of everything" disaster stories, you'll love this.

Excellent book. Very enjoyable read. At times, the plot seems a little diluted and tends to be predictable, but the science behind the writing is very interesting.
