Why read it?
1 author picked D.C. FALL as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This one reminded me of the movie Independence Day: post-apocalyptic chaos in the nation’s capital and desperate citizens and government officials trying to hold things together. Only instead of an alien invasion, it’s an EMP attack by foreign powers trying to cripple the country.
With a wide-ranging cast of intriguing characters—everything from congressional staff to rural farmers—the book presented a variety of perspectives on the unfolding disaster. The mix of intrigue and character-driven drama kept me hooked through all three books (so far) in the series.
From Linda's list on post-apocalyptic stories that don’t lose hope.
