It's nature versus humans with a country torn in half as the post-apocalyptic series continues. "Fast-paced and intense! I couldn't put it down." —Kerry Alan Denney, author of A Mighty Rolling Thunder The world was shaking apart and the North American continent was at the heart of it. An earthquake ripped the country in half at the New Madrid fault line. Shipping ceased and sent the country into a tailspin, with small towns like Michigan's Moose Creek suffering the most. Recovery came slow as the country pulled itself together, until another more terrifying quake hit, awakening the sleeping caldera beneath Yellowstone. The ash that circled the world disrupted weather patterns everywhere, blotting out the sun and stirring up massive storms. Allexa Smeth and Colonel James Andrews set out to find the rift that broke the Upper Peninsula in half, turning two Great Lakes into one and causing massive floods. Finding the colonel's men was a priority, but Allexa and the colonel didn't know it would mean getting into more than they bargained for—and possibly more than they could handle. "Learning from survival fiction is one of my passions although I do recognize and accept that many of the scenarios are quite extreme. Still, as a prepper that is continually challenged by the pursuit of knowledge, I keep reading and keep playing the 'what if' game in my own mind. One of the best series of books for doing so is Deborah D. Moore's The Journal series." — Backdoor Survival
