THE FINAL DAY by William R. Forstchen - SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOK
See all titles by William R. Forstchen.
After defeating the designs of the alleged federal government, John Matherson and his community have returned their attention to restoring the technologies and social order that existed prior to the EMP (Electro-Magnetic Pulse) attack. Then the government announces that it’s ceding large portions of the country to China and Mexico. The Constitution is no longer in effect, and what’s left of the U.S. Army has been deployed to suppress rebellion in the remaining states.
The man sent to confront John is General Bob Scales, John’s old commanding officer and closest friend from prewar days. Will General Scales follow orders, or might he be the crucial turning point in the quest for an America that is again united? As the dubious Federal government increasingly curtails liberty and trades away sovereignty, it might just get exactly what it fears: revolution.

Book Review John Hutchinson May 11, 2017
I was first introduced to William R. Forstchen with the books he co-authored with Newt Gingrich. Together they produced the bestselling series of historical novels including VALLEY FORGE, BATTLE OF THE CRATER and TO TRY MEN’S SOULS.
In 2009 Forstchen released ONE SECOND AFTER, a story of one man’s struggle to save his family and his small North Carolina town after America is hit with a high altitude EMP that sends America back to the dark ages. Months before publication, One Second After was cited on the floor of Congress as a book all Americans should read, alerting us all to a real weapon, which if used by an enemy could destroy the entire United States, literally within one second.
The book was an instant hit, and readers were eager to learn more about John Matherson and the people of Black Mountain, N.C. In 2015 ONE YEAR AFTER begins one year after One Second After ends, two years since nuclear weapons were detonated above the United States and brought America to its knees. After months of suffering starvation, war, and countless deaths, the survivors of Black Mountain, North Carolina, begin to recover some of the technology and supplies they had once taken for granted, like electricity, communications, and medicine. When >a “federal administrator” arrives in a nearby city, they dare to hope that a new national government is finally emerging. Matherson must lead his small town and his rag tag militia against a ruthless federal administrator with plans of a hostile takeover of Black Mountain and its people.
And now in the highly-anticipated follow-up, THE FINAL DAY returns us to Black Mountain, as the people of this small community continue to rebuild after the EMP that destroyed the country, killing millions and leaving the survivors in a dark world, filled with fear, hunger and hopelessness.
After defeating the illegitimate federal government, Matherson and his community have returned to their task of restoring some of the technology they had taken for granted before the EMP attack. He receives a cryptic message from his former commanding general and close friend, and soon learns that he has been labeled a trouble maker by the new power elite base in Bluemont, VA. The new federal government has deployed soldiers to seize control of the surviving communities and to suppress rebellion.
General Bob Scales, Matherson’s old commanding officer has been tasked with bringing Matherson in. dead or alive. As the story unwinds the power of friendship between the two old warriors is tested as they discover some revealing truths about the new government and the future of America.
THE FINAL DAY is an enthralling, action filled conclusion to the series. These post apocalyptic thrillers clearly demonstrate how moral strength of character can lead us from the darkness. Forstchen has created a story of warning that needed to be told, and he does so in a riveting,entertaining, and thrilling manner.
Norwood Press is planning to create a special boxed set of William R. Forstchen’s trilogy titled THE DAY. This three book set will include ONE SECOND AFTER, ONE YEAR AFTER, and THE FINAL DAY. It will be housed in a custom slipcase designed to hold all three books. This special edition will be extremely limited, so reserve your set today.
