Review: Great if you live in or know the LA area

As a lover of disaster novels, I anticipated a good read re "The Big One".  As far as the story line (or should I say "several lines" goes it was very informative regarding earthquakes in general, had interesting characters, and disasters aplenty.  The problem was that due to the multitude of geographic references specific to the LA area, I could never get a good picture in my mind of the magnitude and/or result the many quakes might cause.  A map might have resolved my difficulty, and the author might consider including one for those not familiar with the LA area.
