I found the trilogy at Finncon-Animecon, it seemed interesting. 

Journal Entry 4 by Thalasse at Turku, Varsinais-Suomi Finland on Monday, September 05, 2011

Not very easy to read, but the story was interesting enough. I sort of like post-apocalyptic novels. This was not the best I've read, though. It's a little annoying how quickly everybody succumbs to barbarism the second the society stops working in these kind of stories. This was no exception, and it was pretty brutal and full of violence as people started to fight with swords, crossbows and longbows.

I liked the fact that all the main characters were ethnic Americans: Finns, Swedes, Scottish-Irish etc. The first one was a tough fourth-generation Finn, who used a puukko and shouts the war cry "hakkaa päälle" with a lot of sisu and talked about the Old Country like it was a mythical place. :-) There were some typos in the Finnish and Swedish words, though, which made me wonder how accurate the Irish sentences were (a language I can't speak). If a writer wants to pepper their fiction with foreign words and sentences, why can't they check the spelling?
