I am a sucker for any apocalyptic story.  This book entertained me but there were a number of frustrations.  The author is not a bad storyteller.  Nevertheless, the book has shortcomings which include grammer, punctuation, spelling and continuity.  The story shifts from being told in the first person to third person.  There are very few quotation marks to indicate dialogue.  Several words like shortcomings are "short comings".  One character in the book is Sally in the beginning, Mary in the middle, and Sally again in the latter part of the story.In anticipation of some future calamity, the two main characters assemble a Utopian survival village.  They do so with a lot of money and little or no obstacles.  They acquire equipment and skilled folks needed should there be a collapse of society as we know it.  If only it were that simple.  And, I would like a nickel for every piece of pie mentioned in the book.  I would encourage the author to keep at it but get someone to edit his work.
