Pandemic Preparedness Guide – Review

Pandemic Preparedness Guide – Review

There has been a lot of information regarding the possibilities of a global pandemic. While this is something to be concerned about, not a lot of people have been able to explain exactly why. The Pandemic Preparedness Guide has filled in a lot of gaps and answered the why question, at least for me. Ken…

Hybrid Z by A.L. White – Review

A.L. White continues to thrill us with the third in the Z Chronicles series with Hybrid Z. I fully believe that this is his best work yet. The book kept me guessing and hoping for the safety of the team and the new cast of characters. Virginia and Lori along with their trusty dogs, Zeus…

Twins of Prey II: Homecoming

Twins of Prey II: Homecoming

I have previously read W.C. Hoffman’s Twins of Prey and was very pleased with the story. I thought the skills the twins were using were believable and put to good use. You can read the review here. However, when it comes to sequels, I do not set my bar very high because I believe that…

Book Review – Ultimate Guide to Wilderness Living by John & Geri McPherson

As I am always looking to expand my knowledge, I was looking for a book specifically on primitive skills. While I have found several, the updated copy of “Ultimate Guide to Wilderness Living” by John and Geri McPherson, was the one I landed on. Although this book was written in 2008, it incorporates some of John’s…

Book Review – Urban & Wilderness Emergency Preparedness by James Hart

Book Review – Urban & Wilderness Emergency Preparedness by James Hart

I have read a lot of books in my day but I cannot remember the last one that was as detailed as “Urban & Wildlife Emergency Preparedness” by James Hart. At just under 560 pages (listed as 510pp on the website), this book provides great detail on several subjects. After the passionate information found in the authors note,…

Book Review – Iron Mountain by Daniel Haight

Book Review – Iron Mountain by Daniel Haight

Jim Westfield is back in an all new adventure with Iron Mountain. While the cast of characters picks up from the previous story, Flotilla, there is enough background information at the beginning and scattered throughout the book that this book could stand on it’s own. I personally enjoy a story that has maps to help…

The Long Road – Book Review

The Long Road – Book Review

It is often realized that sequels are rarely as good as the original regardless of movies or books. Although the potential is there, take every movie you have seen and the percentages of successful “part 2” movies really aren’t worth the time they spent at the box office. Happily, I cannot say the same for…

Book Review – MAGS: The People Part of Prepping

Book Review – MAGS: The People Part of Prepping

Until recently, Charley Hogwood had been sending me articles on Mutual Assistance Groups (MAGS). Since this was something I was unfamiliar with, I took note and deeply pondered the information within the articles. In the last communication regarding MAGS, I was informed that Charley was actually finishing up a book on the subject. I was…

Book Review: Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse

Book Review: Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse

I have been somewhat a “fan” of all things zombie since I was a child. The snarling, flesh-rotting, former humans have always had an appeal to me, even to the point of walking around the house searching for all thing that looked like the “life” sustaining gray matter they longed for. Now as an adult,…

Book Review – The Prepper’s Handbook

Book Review – The Prepper’s Handbook

I bought The Prepper’s Handbook shortly after it came out in December 2011 and was very pleased with my purchase. Zion Prepper started with this book and some of it can be found in his latest release of The Prepper’s Survival Guide: An Introduction to Prepping and a Guide to Fire. I do believe there…

Book Review – The Prepper’s Survival Guide: An Introduction to Prepping and Guide to FIRE

There are few books that provide the detail I look for regarding prepping and survival. Bryan Foster, aka Zion Prepper, has provided that detail with his latest book, The Prepper’s Survival Guide: An Introduction to Prepping and a Guide to FIRE. This book is definitely worth the purchase. Why? You may ask. For starters, the…
