Just finished reading it, Sarge. Really good, but it felt like it had finished mid story. Do you know if there's any more to it?
When in doubt, apply rule ·223 or ·308 -- unless you have a more preferred calibre.

Its my understanding, from eSearches, that all EFI vehicles will only be good as small ugly greenhouses after an EMP event. Anyone have a different take on this?

O.K. Has anybody had problems with their car's computer malfunctioning? It does happen occasioanlly. So is the whole car a write-off? Of course not. What do you do? Simple: You get it repaired or replaced, albeit at some cost.
If you are really concerned about an EMP event, perhaps it would be a good idea to contact your car's maker or service dept and find out what spares you would need to have on hand to make the required repairs, and keep those in your EMP-proof safe.

Lights out has been removed from Survivalmonkey, it will be coming out in print.
BTW, another EXCELLENT novel about EMP is 'One second after'

I read lights out 2 years ago. It was the first survival fiction I had ever read. It is a great read. Part of the reason I started prepping. Exciting that it will be in print.
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
-John Stuart Mill
