false <![CDATA[One Second After]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255638415m/4922079.jpg 4922079 2 New York Times best selling author William R. Forstchen now brings us a story which can be all too terrifyingly real...a story in which one man struggles to save his family and his small North Carolina town after America loses a war, in one second, a war that will send America back to the Dark Ages...A war based upon a weapon, an Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP). A weapon that may already be in the hands of our enemies.Months before publication, One Second After has already been cited on the floor of Congress as a book all Americans should read, a book already being discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a truly realistic look at a weapon and its awesome power to destroy the entire United States, literally within one second. It is a weapon that the Wall Street Journal warns could shatter America. In the tradition of On the Beach, Fail Safe and Testament, this book, set in a typical American town, is a dire warning of what might be our future...and our end. 4987669 17 3 2009 One Second After total:382|5:122|4:132|3:80|2:34|1:14| 382 1460 688 175 5 5 false true Tue Mar 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 18 20:28:27 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 31 18:05:04 -0700 2009

I strongly recommend reading this from a quite realistic 'what if' scenario. It was a 'read in one sitting' novel, well crafted technical thriller around a significantly under-rated national risk.

It's a thriller, for sure, and kept me up half the night. The novel is well structured and the story line is linear, so it's a page turner.
