Did a search where someone recommended "One Second After" by William Forstchen and couldn't find it so I started this thread to say I finished it recently and highly recomment it!  Thought provoking and a good read.

Lights Out is another good post-EMP book. Originally started as a download, but is in book form now. Huge - 700 pages, but they fly by.

It was Rastus that recommended the book.
I was looking for his review but all I could find was this one.

I thing it was a very thought provoking book.  From the actual mechanics of writing thing it didn't read as well as I would have liked, but the information packed in was fascinating.

This one Tom?

You guys do know the Iranians have an EMP weapon as a stated goal?  There last two missile tests were "aborted"...and maybe they were.  However, the missiles were detonated as an EMP command would be given...something to think about.
