Summary

Which would be worse? Suffering an EMP, electromagnetic pulse? Or finding out that you've fallen back into time, 500 years?

Beckett Gray thinks the world has ended because all indications lead him to believe that an EMP has struck, and he is woefully unprepared. His car and cell phone have died near the Appalachian Trail, in the Cumberland Gap National Park. Then he and several other hikers find out what has really happened!

Will they survive this savage time? Can they find their home again? Or will they have to make a new home in an unforgiving time?

They find out quickly that they are not welcome in this time and that it is trying to kill them.

I really liked the premise of this story and expected to enjoy it a lot. Unfortunately I found the writer kept repeating some things over and over again. I don’t know how many times the main character revisited the topic of prepping. How he hadn’t prepped enough, how if he had prepped he would have been better off and his plan to ensure he prepped more if he got back. The other members of the group also shifted towards his perspective on this issue. I felt like he was beating the reader over the head with this. It was annoying. They went back in time while backpacking. Not sure how much prepping is needed for that.

He did the same thing with the ‘bad guy’ in the group. We revisited over and over how the main character felt, all the ways this guy was a loser and how all the other members had the same thoughts. It felt like the writer wanted to force you to see things his way instead of trusting the reader to get there on there own.

The ending also made me shake my head. The main risk to the group was due to the potential their presence had on impacting the past and then the main character does what he does at the end. This book had great promised but for me it fell short.

I REALLY wanted to enjoy this more but...
