The writing threw me off a few times. I was sure there were going to be links to buy some of the items mentioned. There was a website mentioned. Do authors get paid for product placements???

Excellent book Excellent book, excellent information, it's a fun read.

    I can't wait for the next one. There were very few slow spots. Can't wait for more Loved this book!!! The style of writing in the second person keeps you in the moment. Also very instructive in disaster preparation. Aug 26, Val Shaw rated it it was ok. Had to stop reading I don't enjoy leaving a bad review but have to be honest.

    If this book is ever cleaned up and edited properly, I would love to read it. I really liked the characters and the story line. The first person type is a little hard for some reason but really it came down to the constant repeating of simple facts as well as contradicting statements.

    I hope it gets re-edited so I can finish it. Nov 14, Debbie rated it it was ok Shelves: Apr 06, Emma rated it it was amazing. Makes me want to pull my get home bag out and make sure I have all I need and also for all my girls. Really makes you consider just how ready you are for a full blown meltdown.

    Thanks for the great characters. I have mixed feelings about this book. I liked the basic story line but it did not seem realistic to me. The characters did not seem believable. Their emotions fell flat. If I was a parent trying to get home to my child during an apocalypse I would not be as calm as Jill. I am also fairly certain I would not be concerned with shaving my legs in case something interesting should happen.

    I found the second person viewpoint to be a tough swallow. Sort of felt like one of those online games whose out I have mixed feelings about this book. Sort of felt like one of those online games whose outcome is determined by the selections of the player. Different selection changes the story. What I did appreciate is that the narration was done by a male and female.

    This helped to establish which character was being focused on. Feb 17, Lisa Rodgers rated it it was amazing. There's even a pleasant romantic angle for the ladies. The story was good but severely hampered by the formatting. Also, the technique of replaying a scene through another characters POV got old very fast.

    The author has a good story and hopefully improves his technique in future books.

    The old world is gone.

    So when he did I truly loved it. I was not expecting it to be a very first work by the author. The book also switches first person between Jill and John but overlaps and repeats parts of the story, including dialogue as it changes. There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Maybe in future novels the author can think of some other word besides 'bastard', for someone with malicious intent. Breaking down John's pack and the explanation of each item and what it takes to stay alive.

    Jan 28, sarah gabarra-shaffer rated it did not like it. Religious book I only got through a few chapters, I didn't realize it was a religious book. It's a shame because what I read was good except for the praying and Psalms. I will also delete books 3 and 3. Feb 14, Ginger Whitney rated it it was amazing. Spellbinding Couldn't put it down very good writing, suspenseful. Will definitely be reading more of Jeff notes books.

    Jan 17, Lynn Zuniga rated it it was ok. First half needs work Too much unnecessary "filler" info. I had a tendency to start skipping all the wordy verbiage. Picked up a bit toward the ending cliffhanger. Aug 01, Clabe Polk rated it it was amazing. What happens when a disaster occurs that renders the nation incapable of action and exposes the vulnerability to individuals to starvation, violence and the depredation of their fellow human beings?

    In the series Once Upon an Apocalypse by Jeff Motes, multiple families in southern Alabama find themselves coping with an electromagnetic pulse EMP event without warning. A sufficiently strong EMP will destroy solid state circuit boards instantly turning the modern electronics upon which we depend t What happens when a disaster occurs that renders the nation incapable of action and exposes the vulnerability to individuals to starvation, violence and the depredation of their fellow human beings?

    A sufficiently strong EMP will destroy solid state circuit boards instantly turning the modern electronics upon which we depend to worthless junk; and the event depicted in the story does exactly that. The series focuses on the interaction of members of several families; particularly the families of Jill Barnes and John Carter as they find themselves suddenly devoid of modern conveniences and transportation, sources of food and fuel, medicine and basics like tooth paste and toilet paper. Circumstances force them to depend upon what they have in hand for their survival.

    In book 1, The Journey Home, the focus is on Jill Barnes and John Carter; two people who know each other and believe in being prepared as much as possible for such an occurrence.

    Jill is the single mother of Lizzy Barnes. Her father had taught her to shoot and much of the basics of being prepared for emergencies. John and Will are well trained in survival skills and preparation. The problem is the EMP stranded Jill near Birmingham, almost two- hundred forty miles from home; and John near Leeds, Alabama, more than two- hundred fifty miles from home. The Journey Home, written in the first person, is a scenario demonstrating survival skills exhibited by well-prepared characters as well as an entertaining, nail-biting, story painting a bleak, but realistic portrait of what people can expect in times of serious disaster; times when citizens turn to their government for help and find, for whatever reason, there is no government to help.

    Jill and John fight through their fear and the worst intentions of their fellow man while fighting through their own anxiety about their families. They are well developed characters, sound of inner character and belief, for whom the reader cannot help but cheer. The Journey Home will leave most readers disturbed and perhaps a bit shaken. None will walk away feeling fully secure.

    What they do about it will vary…as those in the story vary…from doing nothing, to preparing for a very long siege. None will walk away untouched. Nov 08, Matthew rated it liked it. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. This book is great for the prepper, Christian, pro gun, abstinence until marriage crowd. And you have been alerted, as the book description now does a god job letting the reader know what to expect prior to purchase. This book is a fantasy novel. Fantasy that if you prepare, pray, abstain and practice for the end of days you may be saved when the SHTF.

    In that a man without military training can, often and one handed, shoot all the bad guys with a wide variety of guns. In that society will collapse at the first chance of catastrophe. I was ok with the detailed description of the survival equipment and getting into an engineer-level of detail about it. I enjoyed the easy read. That earned three stars. A side is either good or bad. What I love about most apocalypse books is the randomness and chaos of the world in the book, through disease, natural disaster or even zombies.

    The horror, randomness, and chaos of what I read in these types of books make me enjoy what I have in my real life. Food tastes better, relationships more precious, and the things I take for granted valuable. I feel that not only should I be preparing for the end of days, but I worry that folks that believe this type of event will happen will actually cause the end of days. I feel that because of evil that already exists in the world, I need to be ready to fight evil and shoot them in the head three times to make sure they are dead while wearing night vision goggles then leave them to rot in the street.

    We get to know Andrew very well and want all to go well for him. Looking forward to the next adventure in this saga. Although this is basically an interesting tale of doom, there were many places where I just turned pages to get through it. This was a great story. I'd just finished it and couldn't seem to put it down. The main character was so heart rending I really rooted for him to survive and all. So when he did I truly loved it.

    I really enjoyed the characters. Full of unusual twists, fast paced, and left me wanting more. I am looking forward to the next book in the series. I recommend the book. Not your typical apocalyptic novel. There was very good character development and it was hard not to either love or hate them depending on which they deserved. Author on your first book.
