The world has changed. It wasn’t the Big Bang, EMP, or comet strike so many had planned for. It was worse because it was so avoidable. After the fighting and chaos and when the political machinations failed, nothing remained but the people. What sprang up resembled the Old West of the 1800s. Law existed in small towns as much as could be prosecuted by a sheriff, a few deputies, a local judge and the townspeople. Outside the towns, travelers operated at their own risk, and the bandits and plunderers knew it. The Girl had been out of the country when things crashed.

Normalcy ceased to exist in the United States the instant the Iranian EMP warheads detonated, relieving America of its abundant luxuries and conveniences. The event pushed the entire country backward in a millisecond. Backward in time to the mid-1800s—to a lifestyle that preceded the telephone and, for most, even the use of a simple lightbulb.

The world changed over the past two years. It wasn’t the big bang, EMP, or comet strike so many had planned for. It was worse because it was so avoidable, like a major corporation going bankrupt out of bad decisions and neglect. When the funds dried up and all the political machinations failed, nothing remained but the people. Left to their own devices, what sprang up more resembled the Old West of the 1800s.
