Having read Earth Abides and Alas, Babylon I have longed for a book which told a realistic post- apocalyptic story. After all these years, here it is, French Creek. (Real Amazon reader review).
Love post apocalyptic novels? Looking for a thrilling and entertaining read? Want a novel with a different scenario from Zombies, EMP's, Pandemics & Nuclear War?Retired Army Captain Roger Makefield never expected to become the protector of a small Kentucky community-or its last hope for survival after The Collapse. When a chain of catastrophic natural disasters leaves society in ruins, Roger arrives to find the once-quiet village terrorized by marauding gangs desperate for food and supplies.
With the help of Pat, an ex-Marine, Roger rallies the townspeople, fighting off starvation and annihilation. For five hard years they struggle, survive, and begin to rebuild. Roger dares to believe the worst is finally behind them.
He's wrong.
A brutal attack by a band of renegades leaves several villagers dead and the surviving attackers taken captive. Their leader, Jane begins quietly sowing distrust and fear-convincing a faction of villagers that their only chance for a better life lies across the heavily guarded Mississippi River. She claims safety and aid await them on the western side. But Jane carries a hidden agenda, one that will challenge loyalties and ultimately transform her from enemy to unexpected ally.
To protect the village-and those determined to make the perilous journey west-Roger and his son join the group, guiding them toward Memphis, the gateway to the Mississippi crossing. But gangs rule the river, and the road is fraught with danger. Roger must draw on every ounce of his military training to keep them alive, ensure the villager's safe crossing, while facing up to a vicious gang leader and his equalling terrifying twin daughters.
