"You see, I don't believe that libraries should be drab places where people sit in silence, and that's been the main reason for our policy of employing wild animals as librarians."--Monty Python

PATRON PICKS--Dies the Fire; The Protector's War; A Meeting at Corvallis

Betty's picks:  (Trilogy) Dies the Fire, The Protector's War, and A Meeting at Corvallis, by S. M. Stirling

Synopsis:
The Change occurred when an electrical storm centered over the island of Nantucket produced a blinding white flash that rendered all electronic devices and fuels inoperable. What follows is the most terrible global catastrophe in the history of the human race—-and a Dark Age more universal and complete than could possibly be imagined.

Betty says:  It stretched my imagination.  Imagine what would happen in our world without electricity, technology, gas engines, automobiles.  One day there is "A Change" and the world as we know it ends.
