In a nuclear war, millions will die when the warheads detonate.
The EMP effect will destroy power grids.
It would be the war to end all wars. Yet ...
In the aftermath, billions will die from nuclear winter.
The real battle to avoid extinction is just beginning.
The living will envy the dead.
International bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, delivers up-all-night thrillers to over two million readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide.
The world was caught in the crossfire with devastating results. Millions died when the warheads detonated. Power grids were destroyed, leaving mankind to survive in a powerless world. And that was just the beginning.
Akart's fiction becomes reality far too often. Aftermath lays out the nuclear war scenario in vivid reality. It is a cautionary tale of what's to come in our nation.
As world leaders have often stated, There's no such thing as a small nuclear war. This is how the world ends. Not with a single missile's impact, but with many nuclear bombs detonated around the planet. It was no longer a topic of speculation for political pundits or even families sitting around the dinner table. The threat was always real and the devastation was predictable.
Akart is one of those very rare authors who makes things so visceral, so real, that you experience what he writes.
This is more than the story of nuclear war. It's about the devastating effects aftermath wrought when the bombs stop dropping. The possible future of humanity is seen through the eyes of the Bartlett family, Maine lobstermen whose roots stretch back to the early settlement of Maine.
Some are at sea. Another is off the island they call home. And the youngest, newlyweds, are tucked away in a place of perceived safety in the heart of Europe.
While they fight for survival, they trek across a rapidly deteriorating landscape fraught with danger from both the elements and their fellow man.
From the first word read to the last page turned, I knew Bobby Akart had a brilliant, engaging, horrifying tale to be told.
Aftermath is a gripping technothriller that explores the dangers of unchecked technological advancement and the profound implications of placing too much reliance on artificial intelligence. It prompts the reader to ask, With AI, are we summoning the demon and giving it control?
Bobby Akart skillfully weaves the action between a relatable set of characters as they deal with the aftermath of nuclear Armageddon. Told in a blisteringly fast-paced way that keeps you on the edge of your seat, ensuring you can't turn the pages fast enough.
With over seventy novels published worldwide, Bobby Akart delivers intense, up-all-night thrillers that have you whispering, Just one more chapter, until the end.
