Unknown Author

4.9/5 (12085 ratings)

Description:In Beyond Armageddon, the distinguished science fiction writer Walter M. Miller Jr. (1923–96) and the famed anthologist Martin H. Greenberg (1941-2011) have together collected stories that address one of the most challenging themes of imaginative fiction: the nature of life after nuclear war. These richly imagined stories offer glimpses into a future no reader will soon forget. Miller’s incisive introduction and a thought-provoking and irreverent commentary are included. All stories are preceded by intros, written by Miller, which comment on the story to come, and sometimes also the story preceeding the note.Contents: Introduction: Forewarning (Beyond Armageddon) (1985) • essay by Walter M.
