Helpful Score: 4

I'm not really sure exactly I was expecting from this book, but I will say I liked it. It is a very simple book that I read in one day. The writing...let's just say it is what it is, not very good. But the story keeps you hooked and makes you want to keep reading. I don't pretend to know if this EMP scenario is even possible, but it makes for a thought provoking (what if) story. The premise is like King's The Stand or McCarthy's The Road, but the writing and editing is nowhere close to either. I read for entertainment and this book delivered. Right before I went to sleep last night I rolled over and asked my wife, "How long will canned food last in the basement". Makes you think, especially since my wife and daughter are both type 1 diabetics.
