The Alaskan Chronicles: The Provider
language
(Lodestone Books June 29, 2018)
The year is 2020 and the President has just announced that the world is bracing itself for the effects of a huge solar storm. 17 year old Jim Richards is a gawky, unimpressive teenager in Anchorage, Alaska. As chaos descends and society breaks down into anarchy and violence, his family team up with others to leave the city and take their chances in the Alaskan wilderness. They can no longer flick a switch to get what they want, no mobile or internet, in fact no communication at all with the wider world. How will it play out? Jim must step up, and in doing so, find his true self, his first love, and his destiny. How will the human race survive in this new world? The Provider is the first of the Alaskan Chronicles.
The Alaskan Chronicles is an epic tale on one family's struggle to survive in an unforgiving and unremitting landscape. A wonderful triumph of a story, epic and detailed, harsh and yet human, a tour-de-force of creative writing. Stephen Oakes, author
John Hunt has a deft hand at weaving an interesting tale. Koeur's Book Reviews
Honestly, this book kind of terrified me. I'm used to dystopic novels being set hundreds of years in the future, a safe arm's length away. This book is set at just an uncomfortable distance. Pair that with the fact that the Event could possibly happen at any time, and this story gets scarier than any horror story. Reading Rabbit Hole
A modern day Swiss Family Robinson. I don't want to give away too much of the plot. I enjoyed the story very much. The ending! Wow! I can't wait for the next instalment! Randa's BooklikesI have very high expectations when going into my favourite genre. This book did not disappoint. A survival story of the ages, mixing modern and ancient into the life and experience of one man. A truly inspiring story that had me gripped from start to finish. If you're looking for a modern, post-apocalyptic survival story, then I would highly recommend this one. I was completely absorbed and cannot wait to see where the story goes from here.Book Bosomed BlondeYoung readers will revel in the boyscout hero's encounters in wild Alaska. Emma Slatni, YA reviewer
