Helpful Score: 1

Very frightening book--if you don't have some kind of emergency preparations in place after reading this book, you are completely crazy! Go ahead--Just try living w/o electricity, gas, running water, cellphones, refrigeration or sewer for 7 days, oh, and don't get in your car to go anywhere either....I had difficulty sleeping for days after reading this. This book does make you think, What if????

Other reviewers did a good job discussing minimal character development, and the ending is way too abrupt for my liking.

On the plus side, I did improve my emergency supplies and had a serious sit down talk with my teenagers about what to do in case of earthquake (I am in CA) or EMP attack. I don't think anyone can be completely prepared, but I do feel better now.
