“Civilization slides into the abyss of a new dark age in this horrifying apocalyptic novel. Forstchen has put Bin Laden's wet dream on paper and, in the process, taken civilization straight to the rack.” ―Stephen Coonts, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of War“The only thing more terrifying than this masterfully crafted story is the possibility of it actually happening―and not a damn thing being done to protect us.” ―W.E.B. Griffin & William E. Butterworth IV“Forstchen's work has flair and power.” ―Joel Rosenberg, author of The Sleeping Dragon“Forstchen did such a damned fine job with One Second After that shortly after the first page, I had been reeled in hook, line, and sinker.” ―David Hagberg, New York Times bestselling author of Tower DownWilliam R. Forstchen is the New York Times bestselling author of One Second After, One Year After, The Final Day, and We Look Like Men of War, among numerous other books in diverse subjects ranging from history to science fiction. He has co-authored several books with Newt Gingrich, including Gettysburg: A Novel of the Civil War, Pearl Harbor, Days of Infamy, To Try Men's Souls and Valley Forge. Forstchen holds a Ph.D. in History from Purdue University, with specializations in military history and the history of technology. He is currently a Faculty Fellow and Professor of History at Montreat College, near Asheville North Carolina. He is a pilot and flies an original WWII recon "warbird." He resides near Asheville with his daughter Meghan.
A post-apocalyptic thriller of the after effects in the United States after a terrifying terrorist attack using electromagnetic pulse weapons.
New York Times best selling author William R. Forstchen now brings us a story which can be all too terrifyingly real...a story in which one man struggles to save his family and his small North Carolina town after America loses a war, in one second, a war that will send America back to the Dark Ages...A war based upon a weapon, an Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP). A weapon that may already be in the hands of our enemies.
Months before publication, One Second After has already been cited on the floor of Congress as a book all Americans should read, a book already being discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a truly realistic look at a weapon and its awesome power to destroy the entire United States, literally within one second. It is a weapon that the Wall Street Journal warns could shatter America. In the tradition of On the Beach, Fail Safe and Testament, this book, set in a typical American town, is a dire warning of what might be our future...and our end.

Like the old saying goes Let me just start by saying I've read thousands of books in my lifetime. I was that little kid carting out as many books from the library as my arms could carry, and not much has changed over the years. I've read all sorts of books that I have found to be insightful/helpful, but I can count on one hand the books that truly, fundamentally changed the way I view the world. This book is one of them, and frankly, the others don't come close. This is a dark, dark topic...science fiction...for now. Nonetheless, I feel lucky to have read it. Like the old saying goes, "Knowledge is power." Naïve no longer.Very dissappointed Surprised there's so many positive reviews. It started out ok, but then the author spent what seemed like half of the book with dialogue between the town leaders who were discussing all the problems that could or will happen. It almost seemed like the author was using this time to exercise his knowledge or this kind of doomsday event. I was really disappointed and could not continue through this lengthy part of the book. It could have been so much more if he stuck with the suspense and mystery that started in the begin, but then it fell flat.Read it!! *sigh*wowHaving learned that Congress considers this a book all Americans should read, I bought it. I've had a mind toward prepping ever since I read Lucifer's Hammer, probably 25 years ago. This book takes you a step further into the psyche of survival. I marvelled at the ill-prepared, was impressed by unique ideas, and was numbed by the vast destruction.My biggest disappointment is that Congress and the Pentagon have discussed this book, consider it a "must read" even. Yet, I just heard about it this week, roughly 10 years later. Have they acted? No. Have they encouraged the American ppl to prepare? No.The average American lives 3 days to hunger. What would you do to protect your family from those who would kill them to feed their own family?Most people say "Anything!!"But they won't store rice, beans, oats....they don't own a water filter or know how to build one.You'd steal and kill ... but you won't prepare.And I'm the weird one.READ THIS BOOK.Then read Lucifer's Hammer.Then DO SOMETHING!
