I've enjoyed the End-of-the-World (as-we-know-it) and the After-the-Fall sub-genres. One of each that I remeber fondly that haven't been mentioned here: Catastrophe: Timestorm, Gordy Dickson After-the-fall: Var the Stick, Andre Norton (Var may be "juvenile"; the hero is.) -- William Ricker wdr@faron.UUCP (UUCP) decvax!genrad!linus!faron!wdr (UUCP) {allegra,ihnp4,utzoo,philabs,uw-beaver}!linus!faron!wdr (UUCP) Opinions are my own and not necessarily anyone elses.

Andre Norton has written Star Man's Son (also published as Daybreak 2250 A.D.) as an EOTW novel, and perhaps Star Rangers (also pub. as The Last Planet) as an ATF type. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ________________________ Dale R.

It is part of the "Battle Circle" trilogy consisting of: Sos the Rope Var the Stick Neq the Sword As far as I know, it is not a juvenile book.
