Book excerpt: As Nuclear Winter wrapped its gloomy arms around the planet, man experienced a state of anguished misery and desolation. In order to survive, some became territorial, shunning outsiders. Those in positions of leadership wielded it like a club. While others resisted. International bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, delivers up-all-night thrillers to readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide. "Masterful and suspenseful!" This is how the world ends. Not with a bang, but with many nuclear bombs detonated around the planet. It was no longer a topic of conversation around the dinner table as in years past. Nuclear winter enveloped the planet with its relentless barrage of dark, sooty air. With each passing day, more and more people died. In a desperate attempt to give people a chance to survive, some government leaders chose to marshal the assets of their community. It was a polite way of saying take from those who have and give to those who have not. Hank Albright and his family were not selfish people. However, they were survivors and they'd prepared for the worst. "Bobby's uncanny ability to take a topic of what could happen and write an epic story about it is short of preternatural!" What happens when an all-powerful government sets its sights on what you own? Will you willingly give away the food and necessary to keep your family alive? Or, will you fight for what is yours? For the Albright's, they stood shoulder to shoulder and declared, I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees. Akart's new Nuclear Winter series depicts a world on the edge of nuclear Armageddon. Nuclear Armageddon became reality and ordinary Americans are paying the price. "I never would have believed that Mr. Akart could outdo himself! Well, he has! This series is quite possibly the best he has ever written." This is more than the story of nuclear conflict. It's about the devastating effects wrought by Nuclear Winter. Our possible future is seen through the eyes of the Albright family whose roots stretch back to the early settlement of the Florida Keys. While they fight for survival, they trek across a rapidly deteriorating landscape wrought with danger from both the elements and their fellow man. It was not our fight, but it became our problem. "I am speechless. By far the most edge of your seat, acrylic nail biting book ever. E V E R." Bobby Akart has delivered intense, up-all-night thrillers that have you whispering just one more chapter until the end.
