Raging Storm is second in the Remnant series. I started this book and could not put it down. There is something constantly going on. Shelby is on a mission to find insulin for her diabetic son. He currently has some but his supply will run out soon and there is none locally so she must travel to Austin Texas to find some but she is not alone. She travels with four other friends. Along the way their lives are in constant jeopardy. It is a fight for survival. The world has changed and Shelby and her group find they must do things that no human should have to do in a lifetime. Along the way they meet new friends, people of the remnant who help them in their journey. There are some twists in the story but I don't want to give too much of the story away. The story left the reader with a cliff hanger. I can't wait to read the next story in the series to find out what happens. This book was a clean read with no sexual situations but there is a some violence.

Thanks to Netgalley and Harvest House Publishers for providing me a digital copy of this book to read and review. Raging Storm is available to purchase on February 1, 2017.

I picked this series up in the middle(?) I think. Anyway, this isn’t the first book in the series and it’s not the last as far as I can tell. Unfortunately, it didn’t pull me in enough to make me interested in the other books. 
It was clean. That was very refreshing. While there were a lot of deaths both violent and accidental, it wasn’t graphic. Well handled and what I would expect from a Christian action novel. That is the only reason it gets even two stars.
The story didn’t flow very well. It see-saws back and forth from violent action to philosophical discussions the latter happening at the most random times. Sometimes, it reads more like a critic of modern life than an adventure novel. 
Perhaps I didn’t understand the character because I started in the middle, but I didn’t like the heroine. I think Chapman was trying to build suspense through her thoughts and actions, but, to me, the constant stressing of her moods just made her come off as an incredibly self-centered, impulsive, even whiny woman. The other characters were almost universally flat. 
Much of it left me feeling confused. Things just happened. Good things or bad, there was no explanation. Even the situations or the people new to the story aren’t really explained. On top of that, a couple of ideas were repeated over and over to no real point. I got tired of the restating of the point of their mission.
It just didn’t work for me. 
I received this as a free ARC from NetGalley and Harvest House Publishers. No review was necessary.

A solar flare has caused chaos. People are afraid. Medicine, food and other supplies are in short supply. With no electricity, how will people survive? Carter needs insulin and Shelby is determined to find the needed medicine for her son. This story takes the reader on the continuous journey of the pursuit of items needed to survive. The author gives such details that I felt as if I was right there along with the people in the story. Could this really happen? When you read this story, you will wonder and maybe even start to prepare. Excellent story. I received a copy of this story from the author and Net Galley. This is my personal honest opinion of the story.

RAGING STORM  by Vannetta Chapman, the second in her series Remnants. It is another apocalyptic novels continuing  with the first book  in series. All modern technology has been wiped out across the globe. Shelby  and her teen son Carter, live in Abney, Texas, which has  been thrown into chaos.  They found refuge, but she needs to go to Auston. for her son is a diabetic. With help of a high school sweetheart Max they attempt. They leave Carter, though he tried to persuade them, to take him. The global disaster and lawlessness was hard  to see. Would they make it thru and at what cost. A good apocalyptic novel, that leaves you wanting the next book. Given ARC by Net Galley for my voluntary review and honest opinion.

Once you turn that first page and get your bearings, remembering the first book Deep Shadows and the solar flare that put us where we are today.
I felt like I was reading a movie and I was one of the participants, and there were bullets whizzing past my head, and found myself ducking. Can you imagine even where you live; no more power and nothing with computer chips working? How would you survive, do we have the skills to, and found myself questioning my abilities, I do live in the country and have acreage, and a pond with fish. While you think about surviving the author reminds us that there is someone out there that wants all that you have even if they don’t need it, and will use all means to take it. There is no law, and the false profits have arisen in abundance, who to trust.
I have one big complaint, I was reading along and page turning, when boom, it was like I fell off a cliff, and I tried to turn another page, but there wasn’t anymore, now I am bidding my time for the next book, which can’t come fast enough.
I received this book through Net Galley, the Author, and the Publisher Harvest House, and was not required to give a positive review.
