Summary

A massive solar flare is about to bring the country to its knees.

When Abram Patterson learns about an impending solar flare, every moment matters. Loaded up in his trusty 1976 Land Cruiser, he must get his wife and daughter from their home in New Hampshire to their remote retreat in Central Vermont. But can he reach his bug-out location before civil unrest makes travel all but impossible?

A father who must protect his children from certain death.

Nick Caulfield, a single father of two, is always in work mode. But when the country is on the brink of collapse, he must focus on getting his children to safety. His neighbor, Abram, has left in a hurry, and he quickly realizes that the region will soon be plunged into chaos. He discovers that his son has acquired directions to his neighbor’s compound, but he suspects they will not be welcomed.

A harrowing journey with an uncertain outcome.

A good Samaritan takes a risk to aid a man and his teenage son and young daughter, but when his services go unappreciated, he feels slighted by the man. Will he take the high ground and be the selfless man he strives to be? Or will he seek revenge, allowing his morals to crumble as humanity quickly unravels?

The solar flare is only the beginning. What would you do to protect the ones you love?

Instant Darkness is the first book in the EMP Crisis series, a post-apocalyptic survival thriller series about regular people struggling to survive after a solar EMP.

Another superb book narrated by my favourite voice of doom

Excellently written and narrated, this book is detailed, gripping and really hits the apocalyptic spot. I can’t wait to move on to the next book and really hope that they kick Gary out.

Excellent book

I enjoyed this book very much. It was about ordinary people and what they would do in the event of a coronal mass ejection from the sun. The characters were very human. Recommended!

Excellent & Exciting Post apocalyptic Story

This is the first in a new series of books by J.J. Holden & Mark J. Russell, I love Post Apocalyptic books and this one kept me listening almost straight through. It did take me a while to warm to the two main male characters but I was soon hooked. I must say that I really enjoyed the narration by Kevin Pierce.
I am really looking forward to the next installment which I hope arrives soon.
