Jerico is definitely one of my favorite TV series. Too bad it was canceled part way through season 2.

Since you enjoyed Jerico, you might also like reading ‘One Second After’.

I did. Twice in the same year. Never in my life have I book twice in that short of time. And I could read it again and again. My only criticism of the book was the Mad-Max like battle with the outsiders toward the end. Works great for an action sci-fi, but it took some of the realism away from the scenario painted for us by the rest of the book. I may be wrong, but I think it will be more like the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake than a Mad Max movie. And with my Mom in a nursing home I could visualize the scene from the books nursing home. Not hard to imagine the horror inside one after a short time without power.
Oh!, and I’m not ashamed to admit the part when his youngest daughter Jennifer died was impossible to read without getting a lump in your throat. Never had that happen to me from a book before.

I hope they turn the book into a Movie
