I wanted to share Five Years After: A John Matherson Novel a new book written by William R. Forstchen I received a copy of in exchange for this review.
Five Years Later comes from the New York Bestselling Author from the One Second After series and before you ask if I’ve read this series of books I haven’t but I plan on checking them out the next time I visit my library. I wish you would take the time to check out this book the cover is so peaceful and calm looking with the Sun in the background. The perfect place to curl up and read this novel.
If you like books set into the future then you will find yourself falling in love with One Second After which is what David did when I shared the novel with him. The more I delved into the storyline I knew it was a book I wanted Charlie to read in our Homeschool Reading Class as there is so many teaching moments not only for Charlie but myself as well. I just wish my Uncle and my dad had been here for me to share this novel with.
About:
From William R. Forstchen, the New York Times bestselling author of the One Second After series, comes Five Years After, a near-future thriller where John Matherson must contend with new threats to the fragile civilization that he helped rebuild.
Five years after The Final Day, the Republic of New America has all but collapsed into regional powers and the world at large is struggling to remain stable as regional conflicts ravage the post EMP landscape. After several years attempting to lead a quiet life, John Matherson receives the news that the President is dying from a possible assassination attempt and is asked to step in to negotiate with what appears to be a new military power hidden in the wreckage of the world.
Pulled back into the fray, John struggles to hold the tottering Republic together. Facing threats on multiple fronts, he races against time to stop another EMP attack on the former United States and China, putting years of progress at risk. With so much of his work under threat, John must find the strength within to start over, so that he can save the country and the people that he holds dear from even greater calamity.
