BDS Book Festival 7: The Perseid Collapse Series Giveaway

It is time to shake things up with Backdoor Survival Book Festival 7.  This week we are going to dispense with the interview and head almost directly into the giveaway.  Steve Konkoly, the author of The Perseid Collapse series of post-apocalyptic fiction, is giving away two sets of personally signed copies of all three books.  That means two winners!

You might recall that Steve was part of the Spring 2014 Book Festival and again as part of the Summer 2014 Book Festival.  He is an interesting guy and you are going to want to go back and read his two interviews.

His latest book in the series is Point of Crisis. It is another page turner featuring Alex Fletcher and his tribulations following a lethal pandemic and the subsequent collapse of society. While normally it takes me weeks if not months to get through a book, I got though each book in the Perseid Collapse Series in a matter of days.  Expect some late nighters under the covers with these.

With that introduction, let us move on to the giveaway.

The Book Giveaway – The Perseid Collapse Series

Two complete sets of the three books in the Perseid Collapse Series (The Perseid Collapse, Event Horizon, and Point of Crisis) are up for grabs.  They will be personally signed by Steve. To enter the giveaway, you need to utilize the Rafflecopter form below.

The deadline is 6:00 PM Pacific next Tuesday with the winner notified by email and announced on the Rafflecopter in the article.  Please note that the winner must claim their book within 48 hours or an alternate will be selected.

The Final Word

It is always a pleasure to welcome back authors who have participated in past Book Festivals.  Because Steve is a boater, as I was for many years, I have a special affinity for both him and his books.  Of course the fact he lives in beautiful Maine, the east coast equivalent of Washington State, does not hurt either.

Good luck and congratulations in advance to the winners.

Enjoy your next adventure through common sense and thoughtful preparation!
Gaye

Spotlight:  Point of Crisis (The Perseid Collapse Post Apocalyptic Series Book 3)

The epic post-apocalyptic series continues… In the aftermath of the brutal attack on his family compound, Alex Fletcher embraces his rapidly expanding role within the New England Regional Recovery Zone (RRZ). Fueled by a limitless drive to protect his family and a rekindled sense of duty, he enlists the reluctant aid of a local militia commander–to ease the public’s fears of a federal government takeover.

As Captain Fletcher digs deeper into the government’s plans, he starts to question the federal government’s intentions–and ability to stabilize the situation in New England. With the region’s critical infrastructure destroyed and the nation’s electrical grid crippled by a suspected EMP attack, he foresees a human cataclysm, with several hundred thousand desperate refugees marching further north through Maine.

The bad news doesn’t end there.  Alex discovers that Eli Russell has rebuilt his militia–with the intention of hastening the Regional Recovery Zone’s downfall. Obsessed with stopping the deranged psychopath that attacked his family, Alex scours the back roads and rural towns of southern Maine to find him–unaware that Eli’s plans are far more personal.

Alex will face his most difficult decisions ever, as the world unravels in the aftermath of the “event.”

I eat a lot of fruit (usually three whole fruits a night as a bedtime snack) and in a SHTF situation, fruits will be something I will really miss. The 6 can Fruit Harvest Combo is something I use all year round. With the grocery store a 20 mile round trip journey, I like the thought of being able to rehydrate my own fruit, in the quantity I want, at a moments notice.
