How the end may happen and you wouldn't even know

I liked the people and how they coped with nightmaress that came trying to claim all for themselves

Failed story line

I like apocalyptic stories, so I am pretty versed in the way things go wrong leading to an EMP event. The author took us down the path with a good premise for the story. However, even early in the story you begin to notice a failure to grab the roots of the story and carry through the tough parts. In this case, each time one set of characters comes to a “battle” with the bad guys, the author tip toes around the edge of the event and drops you at the end of it.

Some internal hints:

They sailed on a sailboat that is surprisingly owned by a character they meet…and the ship is amazingly large enough for four adults and a ball team of teen boys! Yachts may not have that kind of room! And do we see (read) a single event of the journey at sea? Nope.

The two character teams are merged back together…around a battle that isn’t even told by having the parties relay how bad it was after it was over. I mean really???? Where is the story? All the lead up only to drop flat. I haven’t read a story this bad in my life. So disappointing. The reader did a good job. But you can’t fix this one

characters

story line seems believable. lived how the good guys had to work with the bad guys.

just ok

I hated everything the bad guys said..cliche type things just over the top with disgusting things..ex: i will rip out your fucking intestines then fucking strangle you with them..everything just like that.

Can I give this zero stars?

The entire series of "the Sopranos" had less stupidity and foul language than one half chapter of this book was waste your time with money
