When the electric power goes out and does not come back on it causes unimaginable problems in the United States. Lee Rosen is living in New York City and has a hard time believing the drastic changes he sees all around him caused from just the simple lack of electricity. He had never thought about the ramifications that a prolonged power outage would cause and just how dependent we all were on having that power come on with just the flip of a switch. He soon has no food and no water and just sees chaos everywhere he looks. This story follows this young man as he comes to grips with the new environment where he now finds himself; a violent and chaotic world where only he is responsible for his own well being.
About the Author: Hi, I'm Pete Thorsen. I write short apocalyptic fiction stories (sometimes called 'doomer' fiction). I enjoy writing these stories set in different possible futures. My stories are all made to be easy reads with no sex or strong language and can be read by teens or adults. Most of my stories do contain some violence so use some caution before you recommend any of my stories to your kids. I do research on many parts of each story and try to make them all realistic and possible but with some scenarios (like say an EMP or solar CME) there are many 'experts' that have theories that vary widely as to the effect and out come. So when reading a story you might find that I write something that is different from what you have heard would happen but I have just chosen to listen to a different 'expert'. My books are fiction and not 'how-to' books though sometimes I try to include some small tid bits of valid survival knowledge. So while they are complete works of fiction some small parts might be factual and something you might at some point find useful. I write about things that could happen in the future. No one knows what will happen in the future or what any series of events will ultimately lead to. These stories are simply my guess of possible outcomes. Your guess of how the scenarios play out may well be quite different than mine. I also try to have my stories take place in different parts of the United States. So keep reading I might have one in your state or even your city sometime soon. Note: The cover photos were all taken by myself. Thank you all for the purchase of my books. The sales have far exceeded my wildest dreams and I have you, the readers, to thank for that.
