The Journal: Martial Law (The Journal Series) Kindle Edition

A crumbling country, an emotional reunion, and a rush of violence bring the post-apocalyptic thriller series to a stunning conclusion.

John Tiggs, mining engineer and munitions expert, tried to get back to the small town of Moose Creek after the first ash fall from the Yellowstone caldera. Instead, he got picked up during a martial law crackdown and thrown in a labor camp. To free himself, he agrees to work for FEMA for six months helping with their rescue and recovery efforts. It is hard and dangerous work, but John finds it emotionally satisfying, knowing that he is making a difference.

Nearly two years later, John is finally on his way home to an unknown reception—he let a lot of people down when he left, and now it’s time he made it up to them.

Meanwhile, Allexa Smeth, Emergency Manager and reluctant deputy mayor of Moose Creek, has her own problems when a band of rogue militants comes to town and tries to seize control. With Colonel James Andrews missing, Allexa must enlist the help of the nearby military base to save her town from an even bigger threat.

“Learning from survival fiction is one of my passions although I do recognize and accept that many of the scenarios are quite extreme. Still, as a prepper that is continually challenged by the pursuit of knowledge, I keep reading and keep playing the ‘what if’ game in my own mind.  One of the best series of books for doing so is Deborah D. Moore’s The Journal series.” —Backdoor Survival

About the Author

Deborah Moore is single and lives a quiet life in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan with her cat. She was born and raised in Detroit, and has been writing poems and short stories since she was a young teen. She moved to a small town to raise her two young sons, and then moved to an even smaller town to pursue her dreams of being self-sufficient and to explore her lifelong love of writing.

Her first published novel, The Journal: Cracked Earth, made the bestseller list in just six weeks, and was followed by Ash Fall, Crimson Skies, Raging Tides and Fault Line. Deborah has promised that although this is the conclusion of The Journal, she has more books coming.

Deborah Moore is single and lives a quiet life in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. She was born and raised in Detroit, the kid of a cop, and moved to a small town to raise her two young sons, then moved to an even smaller town to pursue her dreams of being self-sufficient and to explore her love of writing. Her first published novel, The Journal: Cracked Earth, made the Best Seller’s list in just six weeks, and was followed by Ash Fall, Crimson Skies and Raging Tides, the first three were turned into a Trilogy. After that came Fault Line and recently Martial Law to complete The Journal Series.

Deborah has also written a cookbook, based on her off-grid experiences in the woods of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Many of her recipes have evolved from foraging: from ramps, fiddle heads and cattail flowers in the late spring, to various wild mushrooms all summer long.

She has also released a romance and then a paranormal/time travel, to round out her diversity and you can see all of different books at www.deborahdmoore.com .

Going back to the disaster genre, EMPulse, EMPulse2 and EMPulse3 are now available.

If you like adventure with a human touch, this series is for you. Allexa seems like an old friend that I am getting to know all over again. I was totally engrossed from beginning to the very end. Enjoy reading and getting to know all the people as they struggle to survive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fine conclusion to the series

This book is a fine conclusion to the series. I liked the way John was shown growing into greater responsibility and authority, which I saw as his becoming more worthy of a woman as strong as Allexa. I also really liked the appearance of a third community to ally with Moose Creek. I really liked this as a finale to the series because it showed the strengthening and bonding of individuals and communities and allowed me to imagine a happier future for them all. I must admit I really wanted to be able to imagine a happier future for the characters because they had to survive some pretty rough times.

Like the Titanic movie, all I can say is come back, come back! I won't more from these friends! You have taught me many things in your books. Most books that use this genre, don't always teach you something or actual skills that work! I love your books. Yours was the first book of this genre that I read (thank you! Sutton's daze) and I've been hooked!! But I want more of this series please!?????

Another awesome book by Ms. Moore. Sad to see the end of the series, but loved the way she wrapped things up. It was hard to put down once I started reading it, and there were a few times I literally had my heart in my throat because of the suspense. No spoilers here, but you won't be disappointed with this book, or ANY of the other ones in the series. Waiting for more by this author!!!!

This whole series has been fantastic. It's a real down to earth survival series. Something anyone can relate to. It doesn't have characters that have tons of military experience or get bogged down with so many details of weapons and equipment that the reader gets bored. It has some really good advice for being prepared and dealing with situations that could come up in an end of the world as we know it event.

3.0 out of 5 stars Let down
Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2017

Oh, dear. I was so looking forward to this book, and then was rather disappointed. Most of the characters have become pretty one-dimensional (either perfect/good or rotten/bad, and nothing in-between) and I disliked the changes in point of view as the transitions were pretty rough. All the women do a lot of "whimpering". The men do a lot of yelling. And it was short. Not a great conclusion to a wonderful series (in my humble opinion). And seriously..... she takes him back??

I have enjoyed this series so much. One if the best TEOTWAWKI Series. I feel like Alexia is an old friend. I love a heroine with brains, grit and a prepper too! Hard to find a Survival scenario with this kind of Romance mixed in with great non stop sction.
