"A very chilling story that keeps you glued to the pages. I thought the author's writing was reminiscent of some of Isaac Asimov's early writings so I felt compelled to see the story through to the end. I really enjoyed this story and hope to read further works by this author."
Book 1 rating 5/5 Stars 


This is a boxset of three best selling Post-Apocalyptic books: 


In the near future, society has reached its breaking point. Even in the U.S. (the last best hope for the world), economic collapse seems unavoidable along with war and civil strife. In such troubling times there are those prepared for the worst and those who are not. Then there are also are too young to notice what is happening around them. Brian is an average teenager just starting high school in a Pittsburgh suburb he moved to only three years before. Struggling to fit in at school and dealing with his mother--who continues to make wild plans to flee the country--all Brian wants to do is get through another day. But on one seemingly normal Wednesday afternoon at school, the collapse begins, creating a new and dangerous world. Through these unexplained events, Brian will discover that the craziest day of his life is only the beginning...of the end. 


Book 2: 


In this second installment of the three-part story, trouble has come to an unsuspecting Pittsburgh suburb. In the near future, society has reached its breaking point. A strange and mysterious occurrence follows one seemingly normal Wednesday afternoon that leads to chaos and pandemonium. All power in the town has gone out, vehicles have stopped dead in their tracks, and cell phones aren't functional. Could this be a freak accident or some part of a larger attack on the nation's power grids? Alice, a strong-willed mother of two, races to get her children from school before things get worse. Brian, her son, has fled the high school with his friend, Tobias, as they attempt to get home. And Kiya, her daughter, is trapped in her middle school as the vigilant Principal, Mr. Wright, has sealed the school from outside intruders. Through all of this, the citizens of the town can stand together or they can fall, as a full-fledged collapse is right around the corner.  This is...the end. 


Book 3 


In this third and final installment of the series, the people of a Pittsburgh suburb must come to grip with their troubling dilemma. Cut off from the world through a collapsed power grid, there are no easy answers, and as chaos grows people start to turn on one another when they should be coming together. But nothing will stop Alice from finding her children and getting them to safety, despite the odds.  Her daughter, Kiya, is trapped inside a middle school that's been placed on lockdown by a fanatical principal who fears the end of days. Her son,Brian, wants nothing more than to find his friend Tobias. And finally, Jeremy, a loner from town, has traveled far to escape the calamity, but finds that the problem extends far beyond state lines. All of their tales merge into a discovery of where society is headed. Could there be hope? Or is this simply...the end?

Always Find Cool Stuff At Thrift Stores

Went to Goodwill today to look for some fabric and found these neat playing cards tied together for fifty cents. They are vintage from 1973. But , the real cool thing is that one deck is edible flowers and the other one is poisonous plants. Perfect size for keeping in bug-out bag. Be good for playing with my son and he will learn good and bad flowers! I didn't find any fabric, but these were worth the trip.

Homeschool Minute - Animal Tracks

We have been having fun with the animal tracks in the snow around our house. We followed some deer tracks until they got into the quarry the other day. A lot of fun. So, I decided to set up animal tracks learning at the kitchen table today. He did some matchups with animal track cards and used finger paint with some of his toy animals and mad tracks on paper. He had fun learning how tracks were made and how many different types there are. We watched some videos on youtube about them and identifying them. I even learned a lot.
