Andrea, Lexie and Sarah are ordinary teens until the day the world shut down.
In this chilling Christian YA tale, the girls and their families must develop faith and grit to survive.

Pulse A PostApocalyptic Thriller The Pulse Effex Book 1 eBook L Burkard
absolutely one of the best - in this type of literature--- though the essence of the story is centered and written essentially from the perspective of three teenage girls (16 or so) - do not let this perspective let you decide not to read the book - it is not just a young adult book
.... three perspectives on life and living - present and future = we learn some unexpected and very critical truths that we can easily apply to our own lives and living right now .... i can almost guarantee that if you do read and apply (with an open mind) what you learn through this book your life will be much better and significantly more rewarding in the long run
..... no sex, no zombies nor drugs/alcohol, no horrible violence, no profanity (though alluded to a couple of times), no macho guys and/or gals, no overt religion and/or preaching, no army of super-heroes riding in to save the day = just very personal
......though a critical theme here-in (Christianity) gives a basis for the story - the astute reader can and will see some very realistic reasons and supporting rationales for hope in the scenario presented in the book ..
.... you will not be disappointed - just read the book and be honest with yourself and really think and pray = that if such (the scenario presented) did occur ----- what would i do ?????????

Pulse A PostApocalyptic Thriller The Pulse Effex Book 1 eBook L Burkard Reviews
This novel by Linore does a fine job of what could happen if an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) from the sun wiped out all electrical power. Seen through the eyes of three girls, Lexie, Sarah, and Andrea, the dilemma created by having no power during the winter is well depicted. Image no phone, no transportation, no communication, a limited supply of food and water, no electricity at all.
What goes on in the minds and actions of these three teenage girls is so well portrayed. How they think, how they talk and what they do are shown and realistic. The reader will believe the girls' characters during each day of the situation they must face.
We will be made to think if we experienced an outage by a EMP from the sun.
I highly recommend this novel by a talented writer.
Darn you, L. R. Burkard! Now I have to read Resilience, Effex #2, to find out what becomes of Lexie, Andrea, and Sarah.
This is YA fiction, but since Suzanne Collins and J. K. Rowling blurred the lines on audience boundaries for YA fiction, and since I enjoyed this novel so much, I will from now on consider YA fiction to be stories about young adults rather than stories for young adults.
The pulse in Pulse is an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP, or epic solar flare) that wipes out all post-nineteenth century technology. Unless it's caged in special material - maybe lead, I can't recall - to protect it. Who would think of doing that? Preppers, that's who. Those odd, march-to-their-own-drumbeat people who seem out of sync with reality until the apocalypse hits.
Lexie's family are preppers. Andrea's family are upper middle class. Sarah's family are just trying to make it day to day. Ms. Burkard did a fantastic job of imagining the effects of a total shutdown of everything, even automobiles, in the middle of a brutal Ohio winter. As day piles upon day, the community degenerates into every man for himself paranoia worthy of Cormac McCarthy. This EMP is a particularly nasty apocalypse, simply because absolutely none of the technology we've become absolutely dependent on works. It's the equivalent of asking the flight crew of an Airbus to hang a pocket watch from the panel and bring the ship down safely in a snowstorm. You'll need either Charles Lindbergh or Sully Sullenberger for a successful outcome. In other words, you need someone pretty unusual on your side.
There is a heavy spiritual theme to this book because of Lexie's family, the preppers, who go to the Lord for just about everything. Some readers may take exception to that, but we need to remind ourselves that some people do walk out their faith every day, publicly and privately, and these characters reflect that. In that respect, they are true to life.
Ms. Burkard knows how to keep a reader turning pages, and buying her next book. I'm headed to now. Well done!
I often read novels in the YA category to find new reading experiences for my grandchildren. Generally, I buzz through the story to be sure the content is appropriate and move on to my "adult" reading. I soon found out "Pulse A Post-Apocalyptic EMP Tale of Survival" is adult reading.
Told through the eyes of three teenaged girls, this apocalyptic tale not only looks at the difficult times after an electro-magnetic pulse (EMP), but also views it from three different and real perspectives. The three friends, Andrea, Lexie, and Sarah, each experience the EMP event in a different way. However, each has similar concerns -- "I wish my phone worked." "I want to see my friends." "When do I get to take a shower?" Through the story Andrea, Lexie, and Sarah grow up, begin to care for others, and learn that there is life beyond high school social events.
L.R. Burkard presents the EMP event as real as possible, given no one knows the real results of such an event. Her research is well done, thus making the story more compelling. It's not a story of unending violence. It is a story of what may more likely be people's reaction. Burkard also present an element of Christianity without "Bible thumping." Like the rest of her story, the Christian family is believable in their reactions and their faith.
I will be purchasing this book and the others for my grandchildren; and I will be reading more about Andrea, Lexie, and Sarah as I continue the series.
