Mr. Nicholson is a writer; he proves this with this
well-written tale of civilization being thrust into the dark ages with the loss of power and technology through the introduction of solar flares into the
atmosphere. For me, it is a worn storyline – even television jumped on this
bandwagon with “Revolution” be
aware as well that this is a prequel story to a series based on the same topic
aptly named “After.”
Apocalyptic happens are running amuck in this perhaps political 'horror' fiction or perhaps that aspect of it is not really intentional?
Zapheads … the designation of those negatively affected by the solar flares, creative? I don’t know, for me there really isn’t much to talk about but I gather if you are into the series then this is a great read. As I said, the writing is tight and well presented. Mr. Nicholson tells a good story and apparently knows a little about solar flares and their affect on the atmosphere. I would recommend experiencing outside of milestone 291 and save this tale for later if you decide you dig the After series.
I must confess that I enjoyed the info at the tail of the book
where he gets into his other works. That said ...
