Planning Pays Off
Summary
Sven Denali didn't ask for this. He was a prepper and that meant that he planned ahead. He never knew exactly when, or if, disaster would come, but he knew that to fail to plan meant he was planning to fail, so he did what he could, just in case. When nuclear war started, the world got crazier still, and he realized that even his own neighbors, if circumstances were right, would stop at nothing to save themselves. Now with his family missing and parts of two other families relying on him, he had choices to make. Should he spend his limited resources on strangers or try to survive himself until order was restored? He wasn’t sure, but he knew one thing, he knew that planning pays off.

Ozark Retreat
Summary
When Larhonda Richards is kidnapped by a survivalist cult, her father hires Brady Collingsworth to find her. Brady is an experienced private detective and will not let anything stop him from bringing her home. Nothing, that is, except for her own wishes. When Brady finds her and realizes that she was no kidnapped at all but has joined a group of like-minded preppers to prepare for an apocalyptic weather event, his own mind starts to question whether or not he himself is prepared. When he returns to his life in the city, he finds himself paying more and more attention to the weather reports and becoming increasingly worried. Maybe, he thinks, these “survivalists” aren’t so crazy after all, and maybe, it's time for Brady himself to look into getting his own Ozark retreat.

Jerry D. Young's Survival Fiction Library: The Hermit
Summary
Neal Grant watched silently as the cemetery workers buried his family. It was just him now...alone...something he’d never been before. First, his parents and siblings had passed and then his wife and three wonderful children. All of them were gone forever now - all dead at the same time because of a drunk driver and a foggy road. Little did Neal know that this was only the beginning of things to come. Soon he would realize that he had not only lost his family, but must also deal with a failing economy and a nuclear war.

What If?
Summary
Bethany and Gary had a lot in common. Both were independent-minded and self-sufficient. They were well aware of the dangers in the world and did what they could to be ready for anything, just in case. As the world spiraled out of control, it appeared their worst fears were coming true before their very eyes, just as they were beginning to fall in love and begin their lives together. When disaster struck, they would find their preparations and their love would be tested, but would their struggle to survive bring them closer together or tear them apart? The truth is, in a world of “what ifs”, anything could happen.

Disaster in the 'Burbs
Summary
Darlene was a prepper. As she wrestled the polymer barrel onto its stand beside the other five, she thought to herself how a whole house cistern would have been so much better, but she hadn’t been able to get a variance to install one. The particular suburb she lived in was like that. Even with water shortages in the news almost every day, they wouldn’t let her, or anyone else, install a cistern. At least they didn’t deny her the barrels. Possibly because she hadn’t mentioned them to anyone. Darlene smiled as the thought crossed her mind.

Neighbors
Summary
Post-apocalyptic fiction by Jerry D. Young. Sometimes neighbors are great. Sometimes not so much. Hank Smith was a prepper. But he was a prepper with a problem. He lived on a cul-de-sac road, which was good. The bad part of it was it was on a hill. This would normally be good, but in this case, it put him in full view of the approach to the cul-de-sac and of most of his neighbors. The result of this was that everyone in the neighborhood saw his large garden, his solar panels, his hand well, and the other items that indicated his ability to get by without much help from anyone else. Even though his neighbors thought Hank was a little nutty, they respected his right to live the way he wanted. However, when a world war breaks out, will they respect his right to his own property?
