The wise will listen." --Stephen Coonts, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of War "The people were so real that I felt as if I had known them for a very long time after just the first few pages. And that, in my book, is true story telling that only the rarest of writers ever master. . . .

Series Volume Number2
SynopsisOne Year After is the New York Times bestselling follow-up to William R. Forstchen's smash hit One Second After, the novel cited on the floor of Congress as a book all Americans should read The story begins one year after One Second After ends, two years since nuclear weapons were detonated above the United States and brought America to its knees. After months of suffering starvation, war, and countless deaths, the survivors of Black Mountain, North Carolina, are beginning to recover technology and supplies they had once taken for granted, like electricity, radio communications, and medications. When a "federal administrator" arrives in a nearby city, they dare to hope that a new national government is finally emerging. That hope quickly diminishes when town administrator John Matherson learns that most of the young men and women in the community are to be drafted into the "Army of National Recovery" and sent to trouble spots hundreds of miles away. He and the people of Black Mountain protest vehemently. But "the New Regime" is already tyrannizing one nearby community. Will Matherson's friends and neighbors be next? This edition of the book is the deluxe, tall rack mass market paperback. The John Matherson Series #1 One Second After #2 One Year After #3 The Final Day Other Books Pillar to the Sky 48 Hours

One Year After by William R. Forstchen
This is a really good book, in a different way from the first in the series, One Second After. The first book was both realistic and very emotional in its depiction of the disastrous effects of an EMP on the delicate infrastructure of America. This book is less realistic and more entertaining, in a way. Unlike the first book, which focused on a narrow slice of the world, this book begins the opening up of a wider viewpoint, with some really excellent character development and plenty of people to love and hate. While the POV of the characters is not quite at the "big picture" level yet, it's paving the way, I think, for the third and final (?) book to develop a true world view. It's immensely enjoyable and a compelling read which details the best and worst in the people involved in the struggle for survival. It's also thought-provoking, as the likelihood of this actually happening gets more possible every day. I know it's turned me into a "prepper!"Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Great continuation of One Second After
This is the second book in the series of books about impact of an electro magnetic pulse in the USA. After reading the first in the series, One Second After, I knew I had to get and read this second in the series. This series is definitely worth the read and once you start reading them you'll keep reading until you finish each one. The content is compelling and makes you think about the impact of loss of the electric grid and means of transportation using computer components in terms of food, medicine, toiletries, household cleaners, and clothing production and its transportation. Also, the description of everyday life under these conditions puts the story into a context we can all understand -- instead of being discussed in terms of policy matters. I highly recommend this series.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Good book
Enjoy this author's work. This is about what the world might be like after EMP electromagnetic pulse) takes out the power grid in the U.S. and a couple of other places. Not pretty but very enlightening.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

not nearly as good as One Second After
I found One Second After compelling! I re-read it several times. One Year After continues character development fairly well but the story line is lacking. The author is obviously riding the wave generated by the first book in this series. Too bad I was hoping for sooooo much more!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Very well written
I was hooked on the first book. Very detailed and inspiring. I was easily drawn in and compelled to purchase the series after the first one. Well I didn't wait until I was finished reading the first book to order the other books.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

everyone should read
This book has so much info about what happens when an EMP strike hits America. It will be the small communities who ban together that has the best means of survival. The fact that the masses of the population will turn against each other when the food runs out will be a real threat to the preppers. If a prepper can remain hidden and invisible from the starving gangs, they might have a chance. I agree that 80% of the population will perish, more in the cities. Country folks who know how to eat off the land, and grow small concealed crops, and how to protect themselves might just survive.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
