About this product

Product Information

A post-apocalyptic thriller of the after effects in the United States after a terrifying terrorist attack using electromagnetic pulse weapons. 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.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

    Frighteningly Possible !

    This book may be fictional, but it can and MAY happen!!! The story follows a retired military man and his 2 daughters, along with mother-in-law as they experience the changes to their quiet country town after an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) disables every convenience of modern life. Gone are every mode of transportation (with few exceptions), food supplies, medicine, water, plumbing (toilets, showers, etc), appliances, air conditioning, and civil behavior. In one second, they are living in a third world country. But the worse is yet to come. The author researched minute details of what could happen, from what members of our society will die first, to what will people eat when all food is gone, to how they will protect themselves. This could actually happen to us.

    Enjoyed reading this book.

    If you want to understand how an EMP or solar flare could effect the way we live, read this book. The characters are plunged instantly into living as if they were in the 1800's. Recent assessment says 90% of population would be dead in 6 months if this were to occur on a large scale. There is a story line that makes this an entertaining read.

    A glimpse into a tomorrow we hope will never arrive

    This is a work of fiction showing a military veteran in a small North Carolina town and he and the people he knows are affected by an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). The story is certainly thought-provoking, as the scenario could easily play out for real. I certainly did not pay retail, picking this book up at half price as a used book. It is definitely worth a read.

    MUST READ! Get a copy, you will not be able to put it down!

    With ALL THAT IS GOING ON TODAY, both in the political world and around the world; I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!! - Really it should be REQUIRED READING! I have already read it as well as another who is almost finished with it,,,,, It is a TOMORROW which could very well come to be! And come to be in the not too far distant future at that! AWESOME READING!

    Not to be too dramatic but this book changed my life...

    My husband (Army Officer) read this book in one day & practically insisted I read it. I also read it in one day- til 3 in the morning. It spurred so many conversations between us. It literally changed the way we directed our lives. We moved recently and chose our town partially based on conversations sparked from this novel. The author really did his research and it shows in the details of the book. There are actual classes in the Army that review this tragic scenario. I have bought several copies of "One Second After" and given them away. I highly recommend this book.
