My Comments.
I enjoyed this series even though the prequel was the last one issued. It is something that any ex-military may like and comment on.

SNOW! (SNOW! Trilogy Book 1)
by Ryan Clifford

Every year in the United Kingdom, around November through to February, snowfall will arrive. Usually, it is fairly localised and moderate. Nevertheless, every year when this sprinkling falls, all and sundry are taken by complete surprise and general chaos ensues. Transport links and infrastructure come under severe strain, even though the snow often quickly disappears within a few days. The BAA is on record as stating that they are overwhelmed by as little as six centimetres of snow lying at one of their airports.

So, just what would happen, if, one winter, the snow didn’t disappear, but kept falling - relentlessly - for more than just a few days?

This is one account of what the consequences might be.

Andrew Brady, a cold weather survival expert and RAF officer, is caught up in a fight for his life against the elements as the UK freezes and dies. He adopts Jane Kelly, a journalist and Chris Davies, a twelve year old whose mother has already succumbed to the cold. The story maps their struggle to escape from the UK by land and sea. It also maps the fates of everyday victims of the snow.

Will they survive? Would anyone?
An apocalypse threatens human kind. A highly infectious, lethal, genetic, virus is detected that attacks mankind and mammals. The Government must act, and whilst the authorities struggle to find a cure, they have to plan for the worst. As the disease spreads it is not clear how many will, or will not, survive, nor what the survivors will have to do to live. They will have to cope with their grief and loneliness before they can attempt to rebuild society. They will need to find water, food, shelter, and power and then face the other threats to their survival. If they survive, there may be hope for human kind. If they survive…

This is not horror genre and there are no zombies, and no asteroids, so if you prefer these types of post-apocalyptic scenarios, look elsewhere. This is a story about surviving.

WARNING: This book contains violence, death and some sexual scenes that some readers may find disturbing.

THAW!: a sequel to SNOW! (SNOW TRILOGY Book 2
by Ryan Clifford

Imagine what would happen if it started to snow in the United Kingdom one winter and didn’t stop for three weeks. Three weeks!
Imagine if the blizzard continued unabated until the snow lay over thirty feet deep.
Imagine how the population of the UK would cope. Would they? Did they?
SNOW! Introduced a series of characters attempting to win out against the freezing and debilitating conditions. Many failed but a few hardy souls battled through the appalling weather to become survivors.
Andrew Brady returns to the UK to rescue his long lost daughter trapped beneath the snow. THAW! traces the continuing struggles of other SNOW! characters and their journeys to true survival…or perhaps not.
THAW! also introduces new heroes such as Sir Ian James, Ross Bryant and Ann Fletcher who co-ordinate the battle for recovery in a country on its knees.
Ask yourself: could this scenario really come to pass?
Could it?

FLOOD! (SNOW! Book 3)
by Ryan Clifford

It began to snow in the UK on the 15th of December.

The blizzard raged non-stop for three weeks.

The carnage that followed was of apocalyptic proportions. Millions died and the country ground to a standstill within days.

SNOW! traced the adventures of Andrew Brady as he escaped the disaster and crossed the Channel into Europe.

THAW! saw him return to London with Ross Bryant to rescue Chloe, the daughter of Dame Ann Fletcher, the scheming, devious and morally corrupt deputy Prime Minister.

FLOOD! examines the Machiavellian conspiracy masterminded by Ann Fletcher to extract the British Gold from under the water flooding the vaults of the Bank of England; using the recovery and resettlement of surviving UK citizens spread throughout the world as a cover.
How will she achieve her unscrupulous and treacherous aims? How many innocent victims will fall prey to her innate evil and traitorous intrigue?

Will Dame Ann succeed or will her gathering adversaries finally frustrate her megalomania?

FLOOD! is the third of the SNOW! series.

The PLAGUE! is yet to come……..

My Comments.
This series is not yet finished and Flood is not due out until early next year but interesting.

Ten Years Since The Revolution - A Contemporary Political Thriller
by PM CROWLEY

Political thriller about a revolution which takes place in Britain in the near future. Ten Years Since The Revolution is considered to be one of the most controversial novels ever written.

What are the chances of a new Nazi government in Europe? After a violent, bloody revolution Britain finds out when the British Independence Party seize control.

Britain rejects the euro in a referendum. Germany and France insist Britain must adopt the euro anyway. The British government capitulates to the French and German request. Britain explodes in riots. With death and mayhem stalking the streets, German and French troops are sent to assist in policing Britain. The British armed forces engage in a civil war against our European neighbours. After a brief period of bloody fighting, the new revolutionary government is founded. Britain will never be the same again.

An ultra right-wing nationalistic party, the BIP takes office. Led by Field Marshal Bullit, Britain adopts the same policies as Nazi Germany in a one-party dictatorship.

As a warning! This book does contain violence, scenes of genocide and mass murder. People who are easily shocked should not read this work.

Ten Years Since The Revolution contains one simple message: Fascism is evil. This book is a candid view of the revolutionary behaviour, and is therefore, not politically correct. Please remember before passing judgement; a fascist story can only be told accurately, if the characters act in a fascist manner, warts and all.

My Comments.
Is this what could happen to the UK after the next general election next year.

To The Survivors
by Philip G Henley and Charlie Bray

An apocalypse threatens human kind. A highly infectious, lethal, genetic, virus is detected that attacks mankind and mammals. The Government must act, and whilst the authorities struggle to find a cure, they have to plan for the worst. As the disease spreads it is not clear how many will, or will not, survive, nor what the survivors will have to do to live. They will have to cope with their grief and loneliness before they can attempt to rebuild society.

This is not horror genre and there are no zombies, and no asteroids, so if you prefer these types of post-apocalyptic scenarios, look elsewhere. This is a story about surviving.

WARNING: This book contains violence, death and some sexual scenes that some readers may find disturbing.

My Comments.
Would the government really think about those who may survive and try to help the survivors after the die-off.
