    I need a new shtf novel.

    How are the ones from A. American? I have read JWR's books. I have read Alas Babylon (excellent) Thors Hammer, amd many more. I was wondering if anyone had read the Going Home series.

    The " A American" series are pretty good...Ive been using audible on my iPhone to listen to books for the last year or so at work.
    Im on the last one of his books.

    The second after series is good, as is JL bourn's stuff. Ive listened to thirty books about EMPS and revolution at this point! I think its time for a new genre..

    Thumbs up

    Clive Cusslers Dirk Pitt Novels are the finest Novels I have ever Read in Print... Well over 20 Books now, plus the series is now 44 Years old, and still going.

    Try Matt Bracken's novels and short stories. He was a sponsor on the old board. A Navy Seal turned novelist.
    We found out what "dealing" with progressive lefties is all about. Our side gives up something, they give up nothing and the progressives come back in a month or a year and want us to give up more... rinse and repeat...

    For me, the BEST of all the SHTF series Ive read is Patriots series By James Wesley Rawles.
    Its by far the one I learned the most from having the first book read more like a manual and a shopping guide.
    Many think he is one of the first of the Redoubt writers. A Christian constitutionalist.

    Did you ever read James Axler's Series from 1987 Deathlands?, It was a Series about Post nuclear War, he wrote it about 10 Years or so.

    "And how we burned in the camps later thinking, what would things have been like, if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain, whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"
