About this ebook
One Year After is the New York Times bestselling follow-up to William R. Forstchen’s smash hit One Second After, the novel cited on the floor of Congress as a book all Americans should read
The story begins one year after One Second After ends, two years since nuclear weapons were detonated above the United States and brought America to its knees. After months of suffering starvation, war, and countless deaths, the survivors of Black Mountain, North Carolina, are beginning to recover technology and supplies they had once taken for granted, like electricity, radio communications, and medications. When a “federal administrator” arrives in a nearby city, they dare to hope that a new national government is finally emerging.
That hope quickly diminishes when town administrator John Matherson learns that most of the young men and women in the community are to be drafted into the “Army of National Recovery” and sent to trouble spots hundreds of miles away. He and the people of Black Mountain protest vehemently. But “the New Regime” is already tyrannizing one nearby community.
Will Matherson’s friends and neighbors be next?

I found this book just as good if not better then the first. It start's slow but builds and builds to an explosive ending. My hope is that a third book will be coming soon. This story should be told on the screen. It would be a fantastic NETFLIX SERIES... hint hint.

The second book of a science fiction trilogy based on a possible electro magnetic pulse (EMP) attack by an unknown enemy. This book continues the saga of a small community rebuilding and reestablishing itself under the new American régime.
