The end has come for most of the world's population. Small groups of survivors are picking up the pieces... Learning to live again... When the sun began to peek over the top of the ridge on the opposite shore of the Black river, everyone filed out to the two remaining trucks. It had been decided that Mike and Jan would stay behind while the others went in search of the stolen truck. They switched on and tested two sets of F.M. radios. “The range is normally only about two miles or so, but it’s not like there’s anything to interfere with them anymore,” Tom said. “We’ll take three with us, and you keep the other here to monitor us, or if they come back here,” Tom finished. “Do you think that’s a possibility?” Janet Dove asked. “I doubt it, Dear,” Bob told her with a reassuring smile. “It’s just to be safe.” Mike walked over to Candace. Her eyes met his. He kissed her softly, and her arms slipped around him. “Don’t worry,” she whispered, “I’ll be careful. And I’ll make sure they’re careful.” She kissed him and pulled back. Mike stared at the face of the two way radio for a long second and then watched her get into the Suburban. Bob got into the front seat with her. Her eyes met his once more, and she smiled reassuringly, then started the Suburban and fell in behind Tom as he drove the big State truck out across the pavement. Mike and Janet stood quietly as the two trucks drove away. Neither of them wanted to go back inside the cave. The sun was up and warming the old asphalt of the road where it passed in front of the cave, and what little snow remained was already beginning to melt. “Left here,” The radio squawked. It sounded like Lydia. “Behind you,” came an answer that sounded like Bob. Mike shifted the 30-30 Deer rifle he held in one hand and thumbed off the strap that held his Nine Millimeter in his web holster. Janet Dove grimaced and then thumbed the safety off the shotgun she was holding. A short clip protruded from the base of the shotgun, just forward of the trigger. She had two more clips in a small pouch on her side, as well as a fully loaded Three Eighty in a tooled leather side holster she wore. What must we look like, Mike thought. Aloud he said, “They’ll be fine.” “Really?” Janet Dove asked. “I truly hope so. I truly do.” ~ The next twenty minutes went by slowly. Occasional squawks of directions came from the radio, and in the distance the sound of both trucks could still be heard. The silence broke all at once. The radio squealed in Mike’s hand. One word jumped clearly from the static… “Jesus!”… Mike couldn’t tell from whom. A crashing sound accompanied it, and in the far distance gunfire erupted in the still, previously quiet morning air. The squeal from the radio abruptly cut off and it fell back to low static. In the distance the sound of gunfire continued for what seemed like ten minutes, but was probably no more than thirty or forty seconds in reality. Mike keyed the radio, “Candace,” he screamed. “Candace?” Gunfire broke out again in the distance. The fast… POP, POP, POP of semi automatic gunfire, but the sharp crack of a heavy rifle too. No answer came back over the radio. Janet Dove made a small strangled sound in the back of her throat and a low sob slipped from her mouth. “No, God, no,” she whispered.

One part of reading a book is to go along for the ride. In the best books, suspense has to build and characters have to be developed. The authors have done a beautiful job with this book in maintaining a suspenseful plot, developing the characters, and following the story of the survivors in Watertown, N.Y.Sudden earthquakes and storms change the world until it is hardly recognizable. Strange lights flare in the night. Ash floats through the sky, followed by pounding thunder storms and snow. Some days last over forty hours, while the sun rises and sets in the wrong direction.
The characters include Mike, an unlikely hero and leader; Candace, a young African/Asian kick-bu** former bartender/dancer; Bob, Native American wise man; Janet, wife to Bob and nurturer of the clan; Tom, former truck driver who undergoes the most startling self-discovery; the dog, man's best friend/companion/mascot; Ronnie, Patty, and a host of others. There are journal segments included for many of the survivors which lend insight into each character and further invest the reader in their story of survival, community, and new dreams.
There were grammatical errors, but I did not find them terribly distracting. Yes, I had to re-read a couple of sentences to understand the content.
This was not just a shoot-em-up zombie survival story. There was a lot of thought that went into the character development and story line.
A great beginning to the series. Now I am off to read the second book.

Earth Survivors Rising From The Ashes Dell Sweet 9781520509747 Books Reviews
not exactly fast paced as other apocalyptic books, no zombies per second yet but a menagerie of characters and discovering who they are. enjoyable read and looking forward to book 2
This author does a great job keeping the story moving along. Lots of cliffhangers that keep you reading the next chapters. Very hard to put down once you are into it.
I would highly recommend this book to all who like apocalyptic stories. The reason I gave 4 stars, is the characters write in their . journals and you read a lot of repeat which is told in a different prospective. This bored me a little. The zombies in the book are different than most we read about. I like that aspect. Highly recommend...Look forward to next book.
As a dystopian story, it rocks. I loved this story. This story of the end of the world as we know it kept me glued to my seat and hard to put down. I would like to see this one made into a movie, (as long as the story isn't compromised). It was very exciting from start to finish and I felt the fear and anxiety of the characters. What happens to these people could very well happen in our world, and sometimes it does happen, just on a smaller scale. I can't wait for the next one.
Fast paced reading as you follow the different groups of survivors struggling to survive in the dangerous gang infest new world they find themselves in. I recommend this series.
This has been such a great series to me! I love post apocalyptic world builders and these guys have done a great job with this series. I love how they use diaries to tell this tale from so many different perspectives. It helps you get closer to the characters. I can't wait for the next in the series... I've read them all so far (over a weekend - couldn't put them down!) and have not been disappointed!
First of all, bad cover! I love this type of book and at first it was very good, then it got so bogged down with all their prep to move on that I didn't care if they got to where they were going. I'll skip to the end and maybe try the second book, which I was glad to see that there was a second, I'm hoping the author got some constructive criicism and moved the story along at a nice pace. It is a very good premise, just what I wanted, other readers may love all the prep work but of just took so long and got repetitive
