Book 4 of 4: WWIV

See all formats and editions

Across the barren American landscape, the last of a breed wanders.
Searching through abandoned homes and businesses, these desperate souls seek their wares. Perhaps a gold broach, or a silver tea service, or something as small as a half bottle of gin will be found. Happy with whatever they find, these people trade their discoveries for food and supplies. Sometimes they are given a meal and a safe place to sleep. In other places, they are chased away for being the scum of the Earth. They are the last of their kind; the last people who truly live free lives in the post-apocalyptic world. They are finders. A group of four finders makes their way into Wisconsin. Following the old Interstate system, they hope to make a big haul in a place they've heard holds vast treasure -- Elk Mound, WI. From there they'll trade their finds with a man in Eau Claire with a questionable reputation. If all goes well, they'll winter on the south shore of Lake Superior in a small community named Ashland. If things don't go well, none of them will live long enough to see the next spring. Book four (of the WWIV series) is set 16 years into The Darkness. A new cast of characters sucks you into their world and makes their lives your own.

Surviving the Michigan blackout of 2003, a tiny seed sprouted in author e a lake’s mind. A dystopian/post-apocalyptic dream some years later gave life to The Darkness and WWIV (World War 4).

lake puts his storytelling ability to paper. He creates tales for the post-apocalyptic world in his WWIV series with the likes of George Orwell as a mentor (they share a birth date and actual first name – not George) Even his mother found these tales disturbing, compliment or not.

Born to average means in southern Wisconsin, in his younger days he spent a great deal of time in the outdoors with his father. Now, lake breaks out of his boring “day” mold (where he works as an accountant) to dare readers to enter the world of The Darkness, highlighting the struggles of the average person (men, women, and children) in a time no one ever hopes to see.

He can be found at the following spots:

GREAT Story

Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2017

One of those books that I could hardly put down. I pray to God the story never becomes a reality. I love the way it ended but i also would have loved to see it carry on into a sequel.

Stop the roller coaster, my head is spinning

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2024

OK, this is an interesting read, and I do recommend it. I like how you find family that had started has only friends. I saw that the difference between bad guys and good guys was a matter of perseverance and perspective. Overall, the good guys tended to come out on top but not without a bit of pain. I would recommend reading this book.

Author seems to have a grasp on a very likely scenario!

Really enjoyed this book, like'd the authors ideas and views on end of the computer's flavored view of the world. Some of his thoughts were pretty unrealistic... I.e. no sex ?¿? At all? Really? Finding stuff after 10 or more years not picked over? I don't think so.

Life In Post Apocalypse

Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2017

A well written story and series with an excellent plot and plenty of action. The characters were realistic and well developed. The post apocalyptic world was well created and the writer pulls the reader into the story. A book that is hard to put down and was a very enjoyable read. Contains an excellent ending that concludes the series. I would highly recommend the book and series to family and friends.
I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Dystopia at its darkest.

Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2018

This is one of his/hers? best PASF efforts. The author has a facility for imagining a dystopia scenario that is both richly original, possible, dark and frightening. He peoples the story with characters that are three dimensional. I won't spoil it for you by going into specifics but if you are new to e a lake and like this genre, you are in for a good read. But be warned - it's really depressing. I would rank it up there with Cormac McCarthy's "The Road."
