Fictional Books That Could Happen

[Pstmstr]

I’ve mentioned this book before but good reading on a snow bound day. One Second After by William Forstchen. While the book is based on an EMP destroying the power grid it seems our current electric, gas, and water systems are pretty weak as it is. West Texas windmills frozen, Draper Lake water supply down quite a while yesterday, natural gas demand high, and empty grocery shelves. Many of us dependent on the everyday conveniences would be in big trouble if these systems fail. Certainly gives one something to think about.

These have been around for some years. Animal farm and 1984.

Those two books have been combined with Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" and are now the Operating Manual of the Biden Administration.

Enemies Foreign and Domestic. . .the author may very well be prophetic.

Sniper Elite series: Target America by Scott McEwen.

It’s a 4 book series which I thoroughly enjoyed, but the story line Target America is one that could very possibly happen.

Red Dawn ( its really a training film)

When I read Tom Clancy's "Debt of Honor" I was blown away. I thought "how has this not already happened?"
Then it kinda did. Great read.

John Ringo's The Last Centurion seems oddly prophetic right about now.

...and a friend's warning that George Orwell and Ayn Rand were optimists also seems prophetic...
