Blurb:
When the world ends, all they have left is family. But can they survive what’s coming?
Laurel and her husband, Bear, have finally reunited with their daughter Mae. But their daughter’s loyalties are divided, leading both Bear and Trent to get swept up in the turmoil as Mae is forced to pick sides.
With her family separated once again, Laurel needs to figure out how to save them and remind their daughter that family comes first in the battleground of post-apocalypse America. And it isn’t long before a new crisis threatens everything they’ve worked so hard to build. Now Laurel must work out how to rescue not only the Freemen but the Militia as well.
People are dying as the two groups clash, loyalties are tested, and Laurel and Bear must make the hardest choice of their lives. In the fight for survival, they struggle to answer a single burning question: how much can the ties of family withstand?
My Review:
When we last encountered Mae, she had just reunited with Bear and Laurel, but the happiness was fleeting as Mae felt remorse for abandoning her unit. As soon as she got the chance, Mae departed from the Freeman and returned to her unit, bringing along all the intelligence she had collected about them. She hoped that this information would earn her captain's trust.
Bear and Trent have been captured by the Army/militia, and Mae is following along with them. I am optimistic that she is merely waiting for the right moment to secure their release.
In the meantime, Laurel remains oblivious to the situation, but for now, she must remain with the Freeman, assisting the injured. Once she ensures everyone is taken care of, she will do everything in her power to save Bear, Trent, and hopefully Mae, too.
Collapsed World, like the other novels in the EMP Aftermath series, has kept me eagerly anticipating what would unfold next. It is a gripping read that keeps the pages turning without a single dull moment.
The world-building is among the finest I have ever encountered. The descriptions are equally impressive. I am eager to delve deeper into this incredible, enchanting world. I adore everything about it and find myself craving more.
I am excited to jump into the sixth and final installment in this collection, Lawless World, to discover where everyone's journey leads next and how it all concludes. Not that I want it to end; I wish it could continue endlessly.
I cherish nearly all the characters, though I must admit that even the antagonists play their essential roles effectively, and they excel in their functions.
I wholeheartedly recommend picking up a copy of Collapsed World for another thrilling adventure in a dystopian setting!
