Alas Babylon review
here it is folks!
please comment and tell me how you like it
thankyou!
and here it is:

Alas Babylon
a book review
by
Rachel S
Alas Babylon, written by Pat Frank, is an apocalyptic thriller that takes you away to a town in Florida in the 60's--an era when waxing floors and playing records were in vogue and the fear of nuclear war with the Soviet Union was part of being American. When a nuclear bomb takes out communication, transportation and power, survival mode begins. How will ordinary people respond? How would you?
Pat Frank uses his imagination to tell you what it would be like. Imagine hearing these words over your radio, spoken not by your President but by a woman who was formerly the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, until this day:
“ As chief executive of the United States and Commander of the Armed Forces, I hereby declare a state of unlimited national emergency until such time as new elections are held and congress reconvenes.”
The main character, Randy Bragg lives in Fort Repose, Florida. His sister-in-law and her two kids stay with him while his brother is working in top secret intelligence in a distant city. When food and medical supplies stop coming in things look bad. Things that didn't matter to them before matter now. Coffee is a rarity, liquor and candy too. Gas is nearly non existent making cars worthless.
This book makes you think of what you would do if a disaster hit. Would you bond together with your neighbors, putting your resources together or would you be greedy and fight for your life with no regard to others? It was masterfully written with believable characters, and realistic dialog and regional accents. The conclusion leaves you with hope which is the the icing on the cake.
I suggest readers 13 and up
and 5 stars!
please comment!
