Reddit reviews On the Beach

You would really like the book On the Beach: https://www.amazon.com/Beach-Nevil-Shute/dp/0307473996/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1525114349&sr=8-1&keywords=on+the+beach

you should read On the Beach.
in which they did not fare so well.

These are books which I have read twice or more and would read again and again on the topic of post-collapse:

Alas Babylon

On the Beach

The Postman - not like the movie with Kevin Costner (just based upon and quite different)

One Second After - currently the most realistic and scariest of the bunch I think.

Earth Abides

Lucifer's Hammer - this one I wouldn't read without many years between as the start is sooooo slow but the second half is good.

On The Beach

On The Beach by Nevil Shute is probably the closest I've read to that level hopeless apocalyptic scenarios.

Earth Abides by George R. Stewart is another one. It's not as dark, but it has some key things in common that you may like.

Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood No sci-fi or apocalypse thread is getting very far without me recommending it.

Hmm, that's a tough one.

I wasn't familiar with the book, so I decided to take a look at Amazon's page for the book. I don't see any kind of genre listing, but they do have sales rank data. That book is listed as #18 in Scifi Short stories and #69 in British literature. That's not a very trustworthy or effective metric, though. Barnes and Noble didn't have genre listing either.

Huh. I dunno! I guess there's at least one book, then.
