In ‘The Days After (Big River)’, J. Richardson’s writing is so colorful and engaging that you’ll feel like you’re right there with the crew of the paddleboat, Annie Bell.  At the end of the day, they approach the dock to offload their passengers only to discover that the world has turned upside down during their few hours out on the water.  Based on what Clay, the captain, sees happening onshore, he no longer thinks that his brother's warning about a possible disaster lurking in America’s future was so crazy.  He makes a quick decision and, from that moment on, their goal is to evade the rioting masses and reach a place of safely.  That means piloting the boat hundreds of miles though treacherous waters and looters trying to kill them in order to reach Clay’s brother’s fortress.  Danger and unusual events hover around every turn yet they still find a few good people to help them during their travels.  The question is, will they all make it?  This book is wonderful and hope there’s more to come.
