About this ebook
*The classic tale of nuclear Armageddon available for the first time in eBook form!*
WHEN THE BOMBS CAME, ONLY THE LUCKY ESCAPED. IN THE HORROR THAT FOLLOWED, ONLY THE STRONG WOULD SURVIVE.
The voyage of the trimaran Vagabond began as a pleasure cruise on the Chesapeake Bay. Then came the War Alert ... the unholy glow on the horizon ... the terrifying reports of nuclear destruction. In the days that followed, it became clear just how much chaos was still to come. For Captain Neil Loken and his passengers, their shipmates were now the only family they had, the open seas their only sanctuary, their skill and courage all that might get them out alive.
“LONG VOYAGE BACK is a breathtaking adventure, a vivid story of human endurance and the will to live, and thought-provoking entertainment with a horrifyingly timely theme.”--The Washington Post
“A most devastatingly powerful book... an absolute gem of a suspense yarn... rivets you to the chair until you finish it... a minor masterpiece.”-Pittsburge Gazette
“A tremendous work of fiction—utterly gripping”--Time Out (London)

Reviews for Long Voyage Back
43 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Pretty good story, though it has its kind of potboiler moments when it feels like there are too many characters to go around. The last part is more exposition than story. Still a pretty good read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Action and suspense and the human need to overcome adversity. Great book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Why does a book about a trimaran have a monohull on the cover?
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow . I'm speechless & scared & alive.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Oh dear. I really love The Dice Man by Luke Rhinehart, but this book is simply not very good. Incredibly pronounced gender stereotypes are so overdone that it's not in the least bit offensive, it's just really really funny when viewed post-feminist revolution. The plot is completely predictable. It's a real page turner though. Think of it as high octane pop music, in literary form.
