I also am fond of end-of-the-world stories, or more
specifically, stories set the aftermath of the collapse of
civilization. THE LONG LOUD SILENCE by Wilson Tucker (1952,
rev. 1970) is one of my favorites. Just a great story,
well-told. Another along the same line is Gordon Dickson's
less well known 1990 novel WOLF AND IRON.
