Downward Cycle

The super solar-storm wasn’t supposed to hit Earth—the odds were against it. And yet with barely a warning it did, and everything changed. In a remote oceanfront town, life begins to spiral downward after the storm causes a global electrical blackout. As planes begin falling from the sky, Scott Montgomery watches helplessly as pandemonium consumes the world around him. But the loss of electrical power is just the first of the problems facing the survivors in the chaos that follows.

Social order crumbles as a steadily growing number of people realize that there are no longer any consequences for their actions. Soon Scott discovers the truth: Not just about the extent of damage to the world's infrastructure, but also the draconian plans one group has for regaining control and ensuring their own vision for the new world .

Catalyst is a shockingly realistic and largely fact-based tale about how society copes when the world is thrust back to a time before technology. If you are a fan of Steve Konkoly, Tom Abrahams or A. American, —you will love this book.
