I read this book a few years ago and loved it. However, I remember being annoyed by the premise of the second book so I mentally changed the ending to be a solo read. Maybe I should go back one of these days....

As for surviving, I like to think I would. Then again I was a history major in school and come from a family of reinactors who did no modern convince events when I was a preteen, so theres that. Honestly though with health and things like that the risk of dying would be much higher.

I also enjoyed that fact that Diana G was a Marine Biology PhD teaching who just wanted to see if she could write a novel. It was suppose to be a stand alone book but they signed her for a trilogy and once she got there even more. She has now stopped teaching.
