Dies the Fire (Emberverse #1)

In 1998, a blinding flash changes the laws of physics: electricity, engines, and gunpowder all stop working. As cities collapse into chaos, ex-Marine pilot Mike Havel and folk singer and Wiccan Juniper Mackenzie each gather survivors and rebuild in Oregon's Willamette Valley, using swords, bows, and old skills, while a warlord seizes Portland. The first book of the Emberverse, a post-apocalyptic epic set in the Pacific Northwest.
