Review: Written by a bigoted, racist, fascist, right wing extremist... BUT

The guy who wrote this series is the sort of American that people in other countries hear about but cannot believe really exists.Unbelievably bigoted against communists, liberals, government, Muslims (all of whom are terrorists in one way or another) and others without count, particularly if they are receiving a benefit, and is so terribly self righteous in his presumed Christianity that Christ would turn over in his grave (where ever it is) if he read a word of it.  On the other hand, many of his survivalist ideas  bear thinking about.  In today's world we are all far too distant from nature and would be incapable of surviving major disaster.  I doubt that the US and the rest of the world will collapse for quite the reasons he imagines, but  do agree that collapse  is well overdue and when it happens will take most of the human race. All we need is one really big Carrington event (huge solar flare as experienced in 1859 ) and the global effects would be catastrophic. Or it may come more slowly with climate change. Or some loony could do something loony and away we'd go. So buy the whole five novellas in the series and keep yourself entertained until the end then get the sweet corn and potatoes growing, send the kids for farm holidays so they can learn to milk a cow (by hand) and teach them how to shoot straight.
