A crude attempt at the apopcalyptic novel. The guy can't write! ( )

Whether you believe that Rawles' books are good stuff or guano is a matter of your political persuasion. I thought that this book might just be a repeat of the first one, but it dovetails nicely. The book is an enjoyable read. People who believe that social collapse is possible will enjoy this book--the situations are probably a lot more simplistic than a real social collapse. The author proselytizes a good bit, the Morse code abbreviations are boring and a few towns are misplaced by state--details, details, details. Author knows his guns. The story line does just kind of trail off...I guess that the smash ending is in the third book? ( )

Read the author's first book, patriots. Typical christanist/survivalist fare. Despite that, was interesting read. This is the sequel/prequel and its just not as good. Fills in some gaps from the first book but just not as well written. ( )

I really have enjoyed both books by [James Wesley Rawles] that I have read. [Survivors] describes people trying to survive and take care of those they care about after an economic collapse. Sadly this is a very conceivable idea. All the main characters were of strong faith and that was in important part of the story but not all were Christian which was a breath of fresh air. ( )

What a load of manure. Shame on this man for adding to people's irrational fears. The US government does not have enough money/fuel to bring home soldiers serving overseas, yet people in the US have gas enough to drive to church? Just one of many, many ridiculous ideas the author spews. ( )
