As John and Jack navigate the chaos, John's wife Emily, an electrical engineering expert, and their daughter Sarah confront the challenges of a world plunged into darkness. Simultaneously, President Thomas Lowell grapples with the monumental task of determining the nature of the crisis – whether it's a terrorist act or a declaration of war. The political and personal dimensions of the story intersect, creating a riveting narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. Bueno's storytelling not only delves into the physical challenges of survival but also prompts readers to reflect on the broader implications of our dependence on technology.

Dive into this gripping tale that blurs the lines between fiction and reality, offering a stark reminder of the fragility of our modern, technology-dependent world. ![]() ![]() nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Day 14 to 30: Breakdown of law and order
1 Month: A New Order
We will follow a family, John and his wife, Emily, 15 year old son Jack, and 17 year old daughter Sarah, as the world around them goes up in flames. Those that adapt will be the survivors, and John and his family are equipped to do just that.
Planes falling from the sky and patients dying on the operating table, is only the beginning. It’s days before Christmas and people with no heat will be freezing to death, especially since the storm is the worst in fifty years. Think that was part of the war plan?
The government…shouldn’t there be a plan in place? The scenario is so frightening to me, because it is so realistic. And we all saw how our government acted when the pandemic hit. All the infighting over what is right and what is wrong. The fake news and denial running rampant. The media playing its own part in failing the people.
I love apocalyptic, dystopian novels, where the characters are put to the test. We see the best and the worst of humanity. What makes The Long Night even better is the fact that we are at war, being attacked in such a way that to fight back puts us in as much danger as doing nothing at all. Act too quickly and the repercussions can have catastrophic consequences.
I always try to put myself in the characters’ place, wondering how I would fare. Could I find food and shelter? Could I keep myself and those I care about safe? Would I become a warrior, an organizer, a leader, a follower? What would I have to contribute to building a new world after technology is gone? What about medicines and health?
I was so caught up in the story that when the words ran out, I never saw it coming. All I could think is nooooooo. I’m not ready for it to end. I need more…and I know it’s coming. I had to check and the sequel is coming. The Long Way Home is up for preorder, due for release in April, 2024.
