About this listen

In an instant, everything stops. No lights. No phones. No transportation.

When an EMP attack wipes out the nation’s power grid and communications, college freshman Maddie Langston is forced to run for her life.

Stranded in a Chicago airport when the lights go out, Maddie is in a race against time. According to her father, she doesn’t have long before the city descends into chaos. She must leave the airport before it is too late.

The perilous journey out of the city becomes even more complicated when Maddie takes responsibility for an orphaned ten-year-old girl. Together, as chaos fills the streets, they must fight to survive in a Turbulent new world.

Maddie’s brother Zach has his own battles to fight as he struggles to get home to his family.

On the road to reunite with Maddie and Zach, Beth’s trip takes a twisted turn, but she won’t let anything prevent her from reaching her children.

Days of Want is a high-octane, post-apocalyptic, EMP thriller series.

I think reading the whole 7 books in 1 go was my mistake I found it too repetitive for this reason .

Good story

I tried to finish this book but have given up half way, I have read/listened to many post apocalypse books and this is the first one that I have abandoned. The main characters have nothing to make you like them enough to be invested in the story, perhaps if the books were condensed down to half the size as they are just too long and repetitive.

Just Too Slow

I didn't know what to expect as I had never read anything from this author, but I really enjoyed it. Not having hordes of zombies following the EMP made the storyline refreshingly realistic. This allowed the characters to develop at a natural speed and demonstrated as a society how dependent we are for others to manage and prepare our basic needs. Yes it did contain a band of super soldiers who can take on a large army armed only with a tin opener and walk away with barely a scratch but the author did attempt to demonstrate their human frailties.
If you like this genre you are in for a treat (including people like me who have a secret hidden pleasure in books like this as they provide an escape from the mundane and horrors of real life).

A different story compared to the standard post apocalyptic tale and all the better for it
