A new genre - the solar flare - has become a cottage industry.  As is the usual case, the characters just happen to be near / find / have on hand supplies for the Apocalypse.  And the have the same travails - mean folks who go wild, no electricity, survivors, food...it's been done many times.Writing is even, uneventful, an odd rather boring assortment if characters -  lots of elderly folks, a 17 year old boy who acts nothing like a teenager and the star, Maggie, a young single mother with a baby.It's rural America with farms, Animals, crops and creaks.  The writing is better than most of this genre but both action and personalities are pretty mundane - little passion or cnvictiin.  The ending is scientifically wron; a flare of that size takes from 24-48 hours to run its course so everyone will be affected
