Reviews of A World Gone Dark

"In typical Baker fashion, the action hits hard and fast in this very plausible apocalyptic disaster scenario. Following the actions of three people as they watch society collapse all around them, the pace never lets up. A teenager has to grow up fast. A mother in the city has to find a way out. And the supervisor at a nuclear power plant must find a way to prevent an even bigger disaster. Time is short. When there is no police or military to step in and help keep order, society breaks down quickly." -- David Simpson, author of The Solar Tsunami and Zombie Road series

"Scott M. Baker immerses us in a world where survival means confronting a society on the verge of collapse and harsh decisions. As a mother, a daughter, and an uncle struggle to reunite and save lives, the chaos of a world without power tests the limits of love and endurance." - Courtney Konstantin, author of the Babysitter of the Apocalypse series
