Hello everyone! I get a lot of people asking me what my favorite books are so I decided to put a list together with links where you can get them if you decide to read them yourself. I currently have several hundred books on survival so this is just a few of them. In this day and time, we all need to keep learning and preparing for what is coming. I have found that the fiction books also have a lot to offer in the way of what to expect and how to deal with it. Many of the books on this page are actually books that can teach you a lot while still entertaining you in the process. I will only list books on here that I have personally read and feel I can safely recommend for all Preppers.

The home books written by A. AmericanThe home books written by A. American is a set that I can whole hardily recommend. I have read each one and can highly recommend them as they give a what I consider to be a very real look at what we can expect in the event we are ever attacked by an EMP here in America. The breakdown of society and the desperation of survivors not to mention how some will seek to dominate the weaker and helpless people in the world. A. American is a skilled story teller and has a way of making the characters in his books take on a life of their own. It is a fast action book that never gets boring. When Morgan Carter’s car breaks down 250 miles from his home, he figures his weekend plans are ruined. But things are about to get much, much worse: the country’s power grid has collapsed. There is no electricity, no running water, no Internet, and no way to know when normalcy will be restored—if it ever will be. An avid survivalist, Morgan takes to the road with his Prepper pack on his back. During the grueling trek from Tallahassee to his home in Lake County, chaos threatens his every step but Morgan is hell-bent on getting home to his wife and daughters—and he’ll do whatever it takes to make that happen. |

The long lonely Road series by TJ ReaderThe long lonely Road series by TJ Reader is a great read. I think at last count there are 44 books in this series. I have read everyone and they are each worth the time read. This is the story of a man in his later years who finds himself a very long way from home and hearth when the SHTF. It’s a tale of the drive to get home come hell or high water. I’m writing it about the way I myself would get home after an event. I can only hope I would do as well in real life. |

State of Emergency (Collapse Series ) by Summer LaneState of Emergency (Collapse Series ) by Summer Lane is a truly good read! Summer Lane is my favorite Female writer and she has written a really great series. I look forward to her other books as well. What would you do if the world as you know it ended in an instant? Cassidy Hart is your typical High School graduate: A little shy, a little sarcastic, and a little naive. But when an electromagnetic pulse takes down the United States, she’s forced to kick into full survival mode when she gets separated from her father. |
