Publisher Description

The highly anticipated follow-up to William R. Forstchen’s New York Times bestsellers One Second After and One Year After, The Final Day immerses listeners once more in the story of our nation’s struggle to rebuild itself after an electromagnetic pulse wipes out all electricity and plunges the country into darkness, starvation, and terror.

After defeating the designs of the alleged federal government, John Matherson and his community have returned their attention to restoring the technologies and social order that existed prior to the EMP (Electro-Magnetic Pulse) attack. Then the government announces that it’s ceding large portions of the country to China and Mexico. The Constitution is no longer in effect, and what’s left of the US Army has been deployed to suppress rebellion in the remaining states.

The man sent to confront John is General Bob Scales, John’s old commanding officer and closest friend from prewar days. Will General Scales follow orders, or might he be the crucial turning point in the quest for an America that is again united? As the dubious Federal government increasingly curtails liberty and trades away sovereignty, it might just get exactly what it fears: revolution.

"Originally, I took a chance on this series. I had never heard of it but it sounded very interesting. Bronson Pinchot did a wonderful job narrating all of these books. I have thoroughly enjoyed the series and am so happy that I took a chance with it. If you have not read either of the first, two books, I suggest you do so! It is a wonderful story about loss, tragedy, happiness and rebuilding. Just a great series."
