From The New York Times best-selling author of the smash hit One Second After series comes 48 Hours, a nail-biting and prescient thriller about a solar storm with the power to destroy the world's electrical infrastructure.

In 48 hours, the Earth will be hit by a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the sun, a "Carrington Event" that has the power to shut down and possibly destroy the world's electrical infrastructure. To try and prevent permanent damage, everything goes dark prior to the hit: Global communications are shut down; hospital emergency generators are disconnected; the entire internet, media broadcasting, and cell phone systems are turned off.

Will the world's population successfully defend itself in the wake of the CME, or will mass panic lead to the breakdown of society as we know it?

William R. Forstchen is at his best in 48 Hours, a tale of the resilience of American citizens when faced with a crisis.

I almost didn't listen to this because of some of the bad reviews. Very glad I did. Yes , there were a few times some information was over explained but I'm a lover of learning new things so this was acceptable to me. If you like EOTW stories then this one is well worth listening to. I've listened to Bronson Pinchot many times and find him very articulate and easy to listen too. Not sure why some said he wasn't up to par with this book but I loved his reading!

Overall, two thumbs up!

Really enjoyed! Finished in 2 days!

Even though it has a different story line. It again makes one think and question their morals. Great Author!

Great, follow up.

the novel's characters were either good or bad. Almost immediately after meeting a character you know which category the person falls into.

very black and white
