Sabotaged World: A Post-Apocalyptic EMP Saga Filled With Fascinating Characters & Prepper Info
A deadly storm looms—and an old enemy prepares to strike…
For two years, Bear’s cabin has been a haven from the outside world. Hidden deep in the forest, Bear, Laurel, Mae, Trent, and their dog Jess have built a life for themselves—including a thriving medical clinic run by Laurel serving their isolated community. But their peaceful lives are shattered when a late winter blizzard engulfs the area, just as a fire breaks out and burns a neighbor’s cabin to the ground.
When a second cabin burns, with tragic results, the community is forced to face the ugly truth. Someone is targeting their community, and no one is safe.
Meanwhile, Gideon is on the run. His militia is no match for Bennett’s brutal paramilitary force, and with Sharon and Lisa in tow, he’s desperate for refuge. But a plea for help forces him into a deadly confrontation, and now Bennett will stop at nothing to hunt him down.
Out of options, Gideon heads for Bear’s cabin—the only sanctuary left. But he isn’t the only one bringing danger. As the storm rages and tensions mount, Bear’s sanctuary becomes the battleground for survival.
With enemies closing in, will they stand together—or lose everything?

Grace Hamilton
154 books309 followersGrace Hamilton is the prepper pen-name for a bad-ass, survivalist momma-bear of four kids, and wife to a wonderful husband. After being stuck in a mountain cabin for six days following a flash flood, she decided she never wanted to feel so powerless or have to send her kids to bed hungry again. Now she lives the prepper lifestyle and knows that if SHTF or TEOTWAWKI happens, she’ll be ready to help protect and provide for her family.
Combine this survivalist mentality with a vivid imagination (as well as a slightly unhealthy day dreaming habit) and you get a prepper fiction author. Grace spends her days thinking about the worst possible survival situations that a person could be thrown into, then throwing her characters into these nightmares while trying to figure out "What SHOULD you do in this situation?"
It’s her wish that through her characters, you will get to experience what life will be like and essentially learn from their mistakes and experiences.

I am absolutely thrilled to witness the continuation of the EMP Aftermath Saga with its eighth installment, Sabotaged World by Grace Hamilton. What a fantastic addition to this series, Sabotaged World turned out to be. I adore this series and can’t seem to get enough of its remarkable characters, Bear, Laurel, Mae, Trent, Jess, Gideon, Lisa, and Sharon.
The world-building is among the finest I’ve ever encountered. The descriptions are equally well-crafted; I had no trouble whatsoever envisioning everything I was reading playing out in my mind as if I were part of this extraordinary world myself. You genuinely feel a connection to the characters, as if they are individuals you would like to befriend.
Someone is setting fire to the cabins in Bear, Laurel, Mae, and Trent’s small community. What could their motive be for such actions? Is it out of vengeance? Do they simply enjoy igniting fires?
Meanwhile, Gideon, Lisa, and Sharon have finally managed to break free from Bennett and his malicious ways. They have determined that their only refuge is to rush to Bear and Laurel’s as fast as they can, hoping to arrive there before Bennett catches up with them.
As soon as I began reading Sabotaged World, I was completely engrossed; stopping was not an option, even if I had wanted to. The more I read, the more intense the tension grew as I anticipated the confrontation that was bound to occur when Bennett showed up at Bear and Laurel’s home.
I wholeheartedly recommend Sabotaged World to all fans of post-apocalyptic fiction! Snatch up a copy of Sabotaged World today!

Review of advance copy received from Author
Again the cover fits really well with the other covers of the series and I’d say the image depicts a scene within the book really well.
Sabotaged World picks up 2 years later after the ending of the last book, Lawless World.
The characters we have grown to love over the course of the previous books are split into two sections, there’s Bear, Laurel, Mae, Trent & Jess the dog all living together in the now enlarged cabin that originally belonged to Bear. Everything seems to have settled into a routine, they have joined with locals situated round them to create a thriving community who on the whole look out for each other.
Bear has somewhat come to terms with his issues with his hearing. He quickly realised managing to continue to find hearing aid batteries wasn’t something he could rely on so Bear rather grudgingly, along with his nearest and dearest have learnt a type of sign language that works for them combined with lip reading he manages to get by most of the time. When Bear and Trent go on hunting trips together, Bear is encouraging and allowing Trent to take the lead more. Both Bear and Laurel are secretly happy that their daughter Mae decided against building her own separate cabin and has just added extensions onto Bears original cabin to accommodate their family of four, five including the ever-faithful Jess. Bear and Laurel are pleased that Mae and Trent have ended up with a good sibling like relationship, which they slipped into quite quickly and really easily.
The family are planning for the future, Laurel wants to build a new clinic nearer their own cabin as it would make it much easier for her to care for patients that need to stay at the clinic and would mean she wouldn’t need to be away from the family as much. The protectiveness in Bear wholeheartedly agrees that a clinic closer to their home could be a safer option than where it is situated now. If its near the cabin he will be about in case anything untoward happens. Laurel is starkly aware that she is only one person and is determined to train more people in at least basic first aid as well as gathering more volunteers to train to work at the clinic which will then give her time off to spend with her family and take care of things that need doing at the cabin. Trent has been spending time with Laurel too, picking up on first aid techniques and observing the home remedy type medications that Laurel is trying to gather a decent supply of. Trent has also been paying attention to a young lady who lives nearby called Alyssa and its plain to see he is growing ever fond of her.
Unfortunately, when fires begin to occur and everything points to arson, the peaceful community is equally shocked and horrified. Why would one of their own community put others at risk and who is going to be the next victim. Laurel, Bear, Mae and Trent help everyway they can from treating those injured, to attempting to put out fires and limit damage as well as trying to work out who would be doing something so horrific. When Alyssa is seriously burned, Trent stays with her constantly. Laurel is torn does she stay with her patient or go in search of Bear and Mae….her choice drives a wedge between her and Trent.
Then there’s Gideon, Sharon and Lisa who after Cornell & Williams were defeated decided they wanted to continue to fight to make sure there would be no more Cornell & Williams to try and take over the world. They joined with a group run by a man called Bennet, who initially seemed to have the same values they did but more and more he is just taking what he wants from people rather than protecting them. Gideon, Sharon, Lisa and a group of likeminded people that are also now against Bennett have been in a long hard battle with him for sometime. It comes to a point where their only option is to make a run for it, so Gideon, Sharon & Lisa find themselves on the run with Bennett and his men probably following them, though they hope he just gives up on them. They decide to head to Bears cabin, as Gideon & Mae have kept in touch via the pigeon communication set up. The trio are sure they can lose Bennett and any men he may send after them, if he even bothers.
The long journey to Bears cabin will be hard enough due to old injuries slowing them down but then they end up up two young children who are both reluctant to be with them. So much so they literally sabotage the escape leaving clues for Bennett and his men to follow and shouting out so that he can hear and find them. Gideon, Sharon and Lisa are forced to tell the children some harsh truths so that the children will work with them rather than against them in their attempt to evade capture by Bennett.
Sabotaged World doesn’t end very well for either group. Trent is suffering an injury as well as a broken heart and is feeling somewhat bitter towards Laurel, there’s a now somewhat fractured family, an increasingly ill Mae and a community who now has to rebuild whilst dealing with the realisation that it was in fact two of their own that were being so destructive and deliberately setting the fires.
Things look like they may be looking up for Gideon, Sharon, Lisa and the children when they manage to get a ride in an army vehicle but are they being lulled into a false sense of security.
I really enjoyed catching up with the characters in this book. As in the real world there were some lives lost and not everything goes to plan, people are injured, lives altered forever. There are good characters to only want to help people, bad characters who want to take what others have for themselves and don’t care about the consequences and those in the grey area that are or were good people but due to circumstances have become confused, perhaps a little bitter and those to do bad things which in their mind are justified. The author certainly kept me guessing as to the identity of the culprit deliberately starting the fires was. I had suspicions about a few people with someone who worked at the clinic, a patient and then the actual culprits all being on my list of suspects!
My initial reaction was Wow I didn’t see all that coming! I wanted to reach into the book and give poor Trent a big hug, he has been through enough, and lost more than most but it seems this new harsh world hasn’t finished with him or his new family yet. I can’t wait to read more about these characters and find out if there’s going to be a “relationship” develop between Mae and Gideon, I’m hoping so!
Summing up once again this instalment in the EMP Aftermath is action packed from the beginning to the end. You immediately slip back into this world and are held there hooked to the last words! I’m definitely looking forward to the next book!

Review of advance copy received from Author
This is book 7 of the EMP Aftermath series. It has 41 chapters in it each told from a different characters POV. So if you’ve been following the series (or my reviews), you’ll know that the Epilogue in book 6 skipped 2 years. The way the book starts makes you think that 2 more years have passed since book 6 but in the first chapter it mentions Alyssa being 19, two years older than Trent and book 6 mentioned him almost being 17 so I don’t think it is an additional 2 years later.
Trent has been my favorite character basically from the get go but how much more can the poor kid take?? After losing his parents, and just everyday life, now this happens - and no I’m not saying what “this” is because I don’t want to give out any spoilers. The way this book ended was tough. Not from a writing standpoint or anything but from a feelings standpoint. You understand why Trent is feeling the way he is especially since you have to question Laurel in this instance. Every single time, she has chosen her patients over her family. Ever since time - no exceptions. And now this happens because of her choice. Trent is her family too, at least they’ve said it many times before and it felt like she deserted him. Hard to find fault with him for feeling the way he does right now.
I have a feeling I 1000% know what’s going on with Mae. I could be wrong but I don think I am even if I don’t know the whole story.
Gideon, Lisa, and Sharon are having a tough go of it. Especially with their loses and the new additions they have picked up. I guess we’ll find out in the upcoming books if they make it to their destination.

Powerful addition to the series
Sabotaged World is the first of three new additions to Grace Hamilton’s EMP Aftermath series, for a total of 9 books.
Sabotaged World picks up with Bear, Laurel, Mae and Trent about 2 years after they established themselves in his cabin in the woods after finally reuniting when the lights went out and disrupted the nation. They now live in a nice community and Laurel has a medical clinic in an old school building where she serves all the neighbors in need. An arsonist comes along and destroys the peace of the community. The book mainly deals with the family as they deal with the aftermath of the fires and the impact to the community.
Gideon, Sharon and Lisa leave the militia group when the new commander becomes mentally unstable and physically abusive. So much so that his wife escapes him and begs Gideon to take her two young children with him away from their psycho father. Sharon is still dealing with her back injury, but bravely treks on as the group of 3 adults and 2 kids make their way across country to try to join Bear’s family while they are being tracked by the commander.
Genre(s): apocalyptic, science fiction, prepper, survival
Bad Language: none
Intimate Scenes/Reference: none
Violence: some, but nothing gorey or graphic
Substance Abuse: some reference to drinking, but not in any of the main characters

Review of advance copy received from Author
Sabotaged World was nonstop action packed from cover to cover. I love Grace's uncanny ability to make these characters come alive. They are so relatable, there's an emotion or characteristic that allows the reader to be able to transport themselves and empathize; even when you don't agree. The way Laurel and Bear depend on their family to keep them grounded. They way Trent and Beth are able to push through their fear to fight and push forward. The way Gideon, Lisa, and Sharon work together to keep the kids safe and honor a dying mother's wishes.
If you're looking for an unputdownable apocalyptic thriller, look no further.
Grace Hamilton is your go to. Highly recommend.

The 7th installment of the EMP Aftermath series does not disappoint. We catch up with Bear and family about 2 yrs after they made it home to Thunder Bay. Thunder Bay has turned into a small community, including a health clinic run by Bear's wife, Laurel and local volunteers. The other group we check in with is Gideon and his group of survivors trying to travel to Thunder Bay while dealing with multiple challenges.
This is a fairly fast read, the book deals with PTSD, trauma, anxiety, grief and a barrage of violent crimes. The character development is great, it is easy to get hooked on the various arcs.
I look forward to more books by Grace Hamilton, one of my favorite Survivor novelists.

Grace Hamilton continues to deliver engaging, fast-paced stories, and this one was no exception. I’ve always enjoyed this author’s work, and this book is another great example of her ability to create gripping, realistic survival scenarios.
The setting was a big highlight for me — it felt vivid and immersive, adding so much to the story's tension. I loved how the environment played such an important role in the characters’ struggles and decisions.
It was a compelling and enjoyable read with strong characters and a well-crafted atmosphere. Definitely recommend for anyone who enjoys post-apocalyptic fiction and great storytelling.

Review of advance copy received from Publisher
This book takes place several years after the EMP. Although not necessary, I believe reading the first six books will give you a better understanding of the characters and where they are now in their journeys and what they survived to get to what seems to be the perfect life in an imperfect world.
I was excited to read Sabotaged World and it did not disappoint. The story continues with the main characters living a quiet life and creating a community but not is all that it seems. There is love, loss and destruction.

Review of advance copy
Sabotaged World is Book 7 in the EMP Aftermath Series by Grace Hamilton. I believe that it is hard to close a series. The world has changed and the characters have spent 7 books coming to terms with the new world. Because of the EMP, medical help is much different. People that before would have recovered, struggling to live and often die. This causes much anger and there are consequences that change the community forever. For me, this has been an enjoyable series. I reviewed an arc for free and am leaving my review voluntarily.

Sabotaged World is a powerful survival story. I love the skills of the characters and watching them develop further. In a world where all you have is each other. Grace Hamilton is the queen of EMP. I felt like I was there experiencing life with the interesting and the deadly environment kept me glued. I have read this whole saga so far and it just gets better but I am really hoping that there will be more coming.

Laurel, Bear, and the Thunder Bay community are doing their best to survive in Sabotaged World, book seven in the EMP Aftermath series. This book picks up a couple of years after where book six, Lawless World, left off. A lot happens in this post apocalyptic story that makes it a page turner. This author writes the best stories that could really happen, and I can't wait to read the next book in this fabulous series. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

After the EMP Laurel, Bear and their family have found peace in their new home. At least until someone starts setting fires to neighbors cabins. Is it a known enemy, strangers or one of their own community members? They work through loss and pain as they try to find the source of the fires.
Just like the rest of the series it was a fast paced and gripping. Looking forward to the next book.

loved this story
I have read the previous books in this series I really enjoyed this continuation of the story and I definitely read the next book Ms. Hamilton writes. This was a very fast paced full of action storyline with some heartbreak. Hope the next one comes out sooner then later.

I'm excited to see more from the author. I found the characters believable and likable. The community was also set up in a reasonable way. There were a few cliches and a few moments that beggared belief but overall it was a quick and engaging read.

Years after the EMP and things are going well for Bear and the community of Thunder Bay. But when someone starts setting fire's that put everyone and their resources at harm. Who could possible want to destroy everything they have? Great characters, action and fast paced read.

This is Book 7 in the EMP Aftermath Series. While it is helpful to review the earlier books, you can read this one and enjoy it. It is several years after the EMP and Bear, Laurel, Mae and Trent are doing well in Thunder Bay. They have built a community and Laurel is running a clinic. Tragedy strikes with an arsonist setting fires that puts the community in danger. Meanwhile Gideon, Sharon, and Lisa must escape Bennet in Minnesota. Will they find refuge in Thunder Bay? A not to miss continuation of the EMP Aftermath series. Note i read an advanced copy of this book. I recommend reading the earlier books if it's been a while since you read them.

It was really great getting back into this world that I had grown to love a few years back. There were a couple of things that took me out of the story (some interpersonal dynamics) but all things considered, this was a really fun reentry into the world we’ve come to love.

Another thrilling page turner, that had me gripped from start to finish, I couldn’t put it down.

February 25, 2026This is a good seventh part to the series! Good ideas & levels of tension, more strife & hardships that the main characters must face. A good addition to the story! I did enjoy it.

It has been a while since i had been involved in this series and it was like coming back to old friends. The world building is so detailed and engrossing i just had to keep reading.

i am really enjoying this series and it brings a real world element to this genre with the concerns. The theme feels real and you can sympathise with the people concerned. I know it sounds weird given the genre but maybe a trigger warning re animals.
