Description
PROMISES TO KEEP: BOOK THREE of THE DISRUPTION TRILOGY In this thrilling final chapter of The Disruption Trilogy, R. E. McDermott once again transports us to a frighteningly realistic post-apocalyptic world of chaos and uncommon courage, and of both hope and despair. When a massive solar storm takes down the power grid, all order collapses with civilization kept alive only by scattered pockets of survivors who find themselves not only short of critical resources, but facing an unexpected enemy — what’s left of their own government. Survivor resistance stiffens as an increasingly corrupt and tyrannical president clamps down on dissent and seeks to eliminate anyone who might expose his perfidy. With both the defenders of Fort Box in what’s left of Wilmington, North Carolina, and the people of the ship Pecos Trader in southeast Texas facing uncertain futures, a resourceful and elusive George Anderson leads government forces on a wild goose chase along the Appalachian Trail, but the future looks grim. Only one man has the credibility and the stature to turn the situation around and fulfill a promise to himself — and the nation. Simon Tremble, Speaker of the House of Representatives, and the last lawmaker not under control of the corrupt president, climbs out of his hidden hollow and starts south along the Appalachian Trail. He has promises to keep. Our story continues. Praise for Promises To Keep “Non-stop action, thoughtful character development and a captivating story” Amazon reviewer “The characters are believable and the plots and sub-plots are awesome.” Amazon reviewer “Fast moving, creative and well written.” Amazon reviewer “The story line and characters were almost like an addictive drug. My only regret was that this series ended.” Amazon reviewer “Incredible finish to an amazing trilogy! I cried more than once.” Amazon reviewer “I highly recommend the trilogy. This third book made me cry, made me mad, made me sad, made me smile (and pump my fist in the air). As good as the first two, and the ending was superb. When I finished reading it I could not put it down, so I read it again. It was just as stunning the second time as the first.” Amazon reviewer “This series is so good I'll absolutely be reading all three books again.” Amazon reviewer “This book has been one of the highlights of my reading year! I laughed, I cried, I despaired, I got angry and experienced every emotion in between.” Amazon reviewer “A real page turner from start to finish.” Amazon reviewer “Only sleep deprivation had me put the book down.” Amazon reviewer “Incredible characters and a tight plot combined with a ton of action ... it doesn't get any better than that.” Amazon reviewer “Excellent book, excellent series. my only regret is that there's not still more to read.” Amazon reviewer “His characters are so well formed that they become as close as old friends. You will find yourself cheering them on in their struggles to survive, rejoicing with them in their triumphs, biting your nails as the plot thickens and tensions arise, and yes, even crying in some places.
