I Am Legend by Richard Matheson, a classic.
Alas Babylon.
paperback sci fi classic from decades ago set in Fla:
BABYLON I don’t think there’s other words in the title but might be.
In terms of post the true END TIMES TRIBULATION
. . . seems to me there’s only one issue . . .
in two aspects . . .
DENY THE MARK OF THE BEAST and die a martyr that one might have eternal life in Christ.
Won’t be any other meaningful options when it comes right down to it.
Lucifer’s Hammer by Niven and Pournelle.
No necessarily recommending, but I do remember this oldie: “On the Beach” by Nevil Shute.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Beach
“Earth In The Balance” by Al Gore.
;-D
By: Walter Miller Jr. Watch out for Lucifer Rising!!
Warday. Whitley Strieber (I know, he’s nuts) and a co-author that I can’t remember.
Stephen King’s “Gunslinger” series takes place in post-apocolyptic times.
Harlan Ellison’s “A Boy and His Dog”
That's one of the best books at analyzing how Western people might behave if the world as they have known it ends. The Third World will adjust a lot better than we will.
THAT’S THE ONE I was thinking of.
Forgot the Alas.
Great well done classic.
Very likely so, imho.
EXCEPT where
the puppet masters have decided to destroy the whole 3rd world population of a country or an area . . . as inferior and not worth the “useless eaters/breeders” breathing air and taking up space . . . in the interest of reducing the global population to 500,000,000 as the Georgia Guide Stones document:
THE MESSAGE OF THE GEORGIA GUIDESTONES
1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely - improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion - faith - tradition - and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth - beauty - love - seeking harmony with the infinite.
10.Be not a cancer on the earth - Leave room for nature - Leave room for nature.

If I'm ever in Georgia...
I read that when I was a kid... short but good.
Alas Babylon! 1950s era but fun.
Dies the Fire.
