Timeline is rushed
The overall premise wasn’t bad, just the little worn out EMP plot. Unfortunately where the author went wrong for me was how absurdly fast things fell apart. A military convoy was ambushed and wiped out in the first day. How in the world would even a powerful gang be able to muster the forces, find working machinery and coordinate an ambush with no communications and flawlessly execute it within 12 hours of the EMP? That is assuming they even know what an EMP is and how bad it would be. Otherwise what gang in the US has the balls to ambush a military convoy? Also, one of the characters was almost raped in the first few hours and random people were already raiding homes and killing each other. In the first day. Look I recognize rioting and looting of businesses would be inevitable but neighbors stealing chickens on the first night? Come on. Most people would be trying to figure out what was going on, not hiking several miles through the woods to steal chickens. If the author had spaced it out more realistically then I would have continued but there were too many instances of me saying wtf as I was reading it. Prepper character with loads of guns and ammo that shoots every week and has all these preparations and plans doesn’t have a tactical vest or body armor...
No more
This author has a good premise and an interesting family. Unfortunately it stops there. Some of the decisions made like retrieving the dirt bike were reckless and the dialogue was juvenile even what was coming out of the mouths of the adults and contained more swear words than was necessary. As much as I like this genre I will not read more of this. Sorry
Great first book Sean
I found myself getting caught up in the events. I especially liked the descriptions of preps & defenses. I was happy when the devil character was obliterated. Sean, the only way to keep your new fans happy is to get more issues of LOSS out quickly AND without diminished quality.LMAO.
Great beginning
I love reading a new author - excellent beginnings with a well thought out story. Very few grammar problems which is wonderful for a new author. I love emp shtf so this one will be great for my kindle collection. I am anxious to follow the family into the remote MN woods now. Nice start!
Lacked imagination
Same storyline of a hundred other boring, want-to-be, apocalyptic books. ‘Bad guys holding innocent women in bondage for personal exploitation…’ Most survivors can predict these behaviors will unfold. My advice to the author,.. Have someone drop you off 30-50 miles from your home with nothing other than the clothes on your back and share the catastrophic experiences that you might encounter after an EMP event. Then write your book.
Great book! Highly recommend!
SM Little, very good Author! This is a really good book, characters are very realistic, and do is the story line! A must read!
Loss: The Darkness Falls - Book 1
Oh my gosh this is a wonderful read. The plot and characters were well thought out. I could tell there was a lot of planning and organization went into the book. The editing of the book was well done. Mr. Little you are an excellent entertaining story teller.
Doesn't pull any punches!
If you like your stories upfront and to the point, this story is for you. Action starts almost right away, author gives enough character development to cover highlights and the story flows very well. Look forward to the next installment of this series!
Couldn't put it down!
From the first page the tempo of this book never slowed down. The characters are amazing in all the sub plots that are seamless and correlated. Each chapter is packed with excitement and S.M. Little knocked this out of the park!
Abrupt at times but kept me reading!
Good start. I am ready to see where the story goes. Would people really detiorate this quickly? Leaves a lot to the imagination but if you are familiar with this genre you don't need all the details. I will read the next story.
