"I've started to look at the world through apocalypse eyes."
So begins Neil Strauss's harrowing new book: his first full-length work since the international best seller The Game, and one of the most original-and provocative-narratives of the year. After the last few years of violence and terror, of ethnic and religious hatred, of tsunamis and hurricanes - and now of world financial meltdown - Strauss, like most of his generation, came to the sobering realization that, even in America, anything can happen. But rather than watch helplessly, he decided to do something about it. And so he spent three years traveling through a country that's lost its sense of safety, equipping himself with the tools necessary to save himself and his loved ones from an uncertain future.
With the same quick wit and eye for cultural trends that marked The Game, The Dirt, and How to Make Love Like a Porn Star, Emergency traces Neil's white-knuckled journey through today's heart of darkness, as he sets out to move his life offshore, test his skills in the wild, and remake himself as a gun-toting, plane-flying, government-defying survivor. It's a tale of paranoid fantasies and crippling doubts, of shady lawyers and dangerous cult leaders, of billionaire gun nuts and survivalist superheroes, of weirdos, heroes, and ordinary citizens going off the grid. It's one man's story of a dangerous world - and how to stay alive in it. Before the next disaster strikes, you're going to want to read this book. And you'll want to do everything it suggests. Because tomorrow doesn't come with a guarantee...

Like in "The Game" it is fascinating to experience his journey, his life transformation. Similar to the story of "The Game" his dedication to personal growth is inspirational and in both stories he ended up with a new perspective on life that he had not predicted. As I'm sure he would agree, the journey or process of self-discovery, is where the truly important stuff comes out.
I have a new perspective after listening to this book about survivalists. Strauss is kind of like me, an intellectual Jewish kid, whose parents labeled themselves as people who just didn't consider themselves as handy, weren't gun owners or hunters. Makes me want to to change my life a bit. Maybe not buy a gun or get citizenship of another country, but at least be more aware of possibilities.
In any case, I listened to this book in two days this weekend. Couldn't stop listening. It's a "page turner" for your ears. I just wish more of Strauss's books were on audio.
