Escaping Home: A Novel Description
Book 3 of The Survivalist SeriesWhen society ceases to exist, who can you trust? After the collapse of the nation’s power grid, America is under martial law—and safety is an illusion. As violence erupts around him, Morgan Carter faces one of his most difficult decisions yet: whether to stay and defend his home, or move to a more isolated area, away from the prying eyes of the government. He and his family are hesitant to leave their beloved Lake County, but with increasingly suspicious activities happening in a nearby refugee camp, all signs point towards defecting. Morgan and his friends aren't going to leave without a fight, though—and they'll do anything to protect their freedoms.

Not because this one was that bad...but, because it's not a complete book. It just kinda stopped...instead of ending at a natural pause in the story line.
Here's the ending, there's no spoiler in this:
"That's a good idea. Send a small security detail with them just in case..."
"Excellent. So, a little more intel and we'll get a plan in action. When do you want to start?"
"Soon as you get that marine dressed."
I turned the page, and nothing more. That was the end. Right in the middle of an ongoing development. I hate that. Sorta like those authors who are selling a chapter at a time for 99 cents.
I was going to give this a 3 star rating initially. It was still good enough to recommend, but there was a drop off from the other books. Quite a bit slower. In fact, I found myself skipping some of it. Still good enough to keep me interested tho. Basically, a solid 3 stars. The other books were solid 4 stars.
Until that ending. I took off a point for that.
Wait for the next book, and buy them both together. Hopefully the next one will have a more natural ending point and you wont feel a little cheated. Still recommend the series tho.

The first two books had so much promise....excitement, fast paced action, & suspense. "Escaping Home", the third book in the series, had me scanning over more than a few pages just trying to get to the action. By the time I was halfway through, I would've welcomed any kind of action: maybe a raccoon invading a garbage can or a deer running in front of one of their vehicles, anything. Seriously, I would have welcomed either of those scenarios just to break up the page after page monotony that is this book. I hate to say it after how much I enjoyed the first two books but "Escaping Home" is a "snore fest". I'll probably buy the next book in the series but if things don't speed up, that will be it for me. I gave this one 2 stars simply because I enjoyed the first two in the series, otherwise, it would've only gotten 1 star.
