Narrated by: Duke Fontaine
The news is full of disturbing events today. There's war and rumors of war. There's the false recovery of the economy. Faith in the US economy is extremely low. Foreign banks have either slowed their purchases of Treasury Bonds or, in a few cases, begun unloading them. We have a current election that is rife with corruption, extreme partisanship, and outright fraud. It would appear the left in the country is ready to do about anything to see their candidate elected.

Lone Star Odyssey
By: David Wilson
Narrated by: Steve Carlson
After over 20 years in the USMC and coming off a five-year tour as a contractor in Afghanistan, all Talon Clark wanted to do was spend time with his kids and wife on his ranch in Texas. Occasionally, taking a short-term contract job to pay the bills, Talon is marooned in Washington, DC, when the nation is attacked by a series of false flag operations against our infrastructure and is then devastated by a series of EMP attacks. With every major city burning and the nation's electrical grid down, civil order has deteriorated to the point of no return, at least for the immediate future.
When is the next one?
By Geist on 09-20-19
What would happen if terrorists detonated a nuclear device high above the United States? What about if the sun emitted a large coronal mass ejection that resulted in a damaging geomagnetic storm? In either case, electrical power could be lost for months. Shortages would quickly ensue - food, water, and fuel would disappear within days. Widespread panic and suffering would be unavoidable. Are you prepared for these large-scale disasters?
This audiobook will help you to prepare for two the-end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it (TEOTWAWKI) events: the EMP attack and the solar storm. Each threat is carefully studied with analyses of its likelihood and potential impacts on our nation's critical infrastructures. Practical preparations are outlined, including steps to meet the 14 basic needs in the absence of modern utilities, and the use of Faraday cages and uninterruptible power supplies to protect personal electronics. Several techniques for constructing ad-hoc Faraday cages are presented. The shielding effectiveness of homemade Faraday cages is measured and compared, including metal garbage cans, foil-wrapped boxes, fire safes, anti-static bags, ammo cans, microwave ovens, and full-sized protective rooms.

What listeners say about Disaster Preparedness for EMP Attacks and Solar Storms
This material would be better in hard copy.
As an avid reader who performs hours of manual labor a day, I try to introduce reading books via Audible. This material (for me) was not easily digestible via Audible on two levels. The first level is formatting. I wanted to listen to the section about building Faraday cages and I listened early to the text tell me that material would be in a certain chapter and because the book is not long, I listened straight through only to discover that the material I wanted was not as expected in the section expected. Upon trying to re-hear the desired section it became clear that "Chapter 7" was the section of importance and that "Chapter 7" held two items seemingly of separate book chapters (unrelated) before it got to the information of interest. Trying to get to that desired section took frustration and time and could have easily been done if this book had meaningful chapter starts and stops. The second reason this book was not good in my opinion is a combination of writing style combined with narration delivery that makes listening diifficult to engage. That same style/delivery has me *outa here." Paraphrasing: this book is boring.
J. Smith
It's worth the listen, but was hoping for more.
I was looking for more usable information about preparing for an EMP event specifically. A lot of time in this book is spent on basic preparedness.
