Blurb:
You don’t survive the apocalypse without making a few enemies…
Laurel has found a safe haven at Lone Oak Hospital. But her loved ones are still back at South Minneha, and her mother desperately needs her. Winter has blanketed the city in impenetrable layers of snow making any chance of returning to her hospital on foot almost impossible. Then disaster strikes Lone Oak Hospital and, in order to survive, Laurel must venture out into the harsh Minnesota winter, and risk everything in a world gone dark and cold.
Meanwhile, Bear has reached South Minneha, only to find Laurel gone. As the temperature plummets, he struggles to keep the other survivors from freezing to death in the brutal cold. And when the blizzard finally lets up, he faces a difficult choice: leave now to search for Laurel, or risk being snowed in until spring.
The Minnesota winters are deadly, but they’re not the worst thing out there. Laurel and Bear have made enemies… Savage foes, who hunt them even as they search for each other. And they’re slowly closing in.
A new storm is coming. And Bear and Laurel must unite if they are to have any hope of survival.
My Review:
Laurel, Arlo, and Liam arrived safely at Lone Oak Hospital, where they found the medication Liam needed to survive. Then winter set in with heavy snow. Laurel, Arlo, and Liam have to stay at the hospital until the snow eases up enough for them to return to Minneha Hospital.
A woman and her husband come to Lone Oak asking for help; her husband is very sick, and if they stay out in the cold, they will die. Laurel goes against the new rules that hospital staff voted on and lets the couple inside. It turns out that the husband has something more dangerous than the flu. After he dies and the illness begins to spread, Laurel, Liam, and Arlo set out for Minneha Hospital, where Laurel works.
When they return to Minneha Hospital, Laurel wants to go find her husband, Bear. She doesn’t think he knows about the EMP because he lives off the grid. Meanwhile, Bear is making his way to her. Their journeys are long, hard, cold, slow, and dangerous as they navigate through the snow.
Bear picks up a stalker he met leaving the hospital— a woman determined to get revenge for the death of her boyfriend. She follows Bear without his or his loyal dog Jessamine’s knowledge.
Dangerous World grabbed my attention from the very first page and kept it long after I finished reading. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough, as I love reading the EMP Aftermath books or any end-of-the-world stories like this one. I just can’t get enough of them. The more I read, the more I want because they are so captivating.
The world-building is incredibly well done. The descriptions are so vivid that I had no trouble visualizing everything as if I were watching a movie. Speaking of which, I would love to see Dangerous World — and all the books in the EMP Aftermath series — adapted into a movie, or even better, a TV show.
I highly recommend Dangerous World to all fans of end-of-the-world stories! Grab your copy today!
