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
Deborah Moore is single and lives a quiet life in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan with her cat, Tufts. She was born and raised in Detroit, the kid of a cop, and moved to a small town to raise her two young sons, then moved to an even smaller town to pursue her dreams of being self-sufficient and to explore her love of writing. Being a lifelong Prepper, Deborah has done numerous articles for magazines, and speaking engagements at conventions regarding the subject. Her first published novel, The Journal: Cracked Earth, made the Bestseller’s list in just six weeks. Book Two of the series, Ash Fall, went to the printer eight months early because of the unprecedented popularity and Book Three, Crimson Skies, is proving to be even more popular. Raging Tide, the fourth book in the series was to be the final chapter, but Deborah is delighted to announce that book #5 is right around the corner.
