FIXED! First 2.2 upload got screwed up. Sorry! ***Seven new additions! See the changelog below*** ***If you're a fan of the genre, leave a comment and/or give a Quality point!*** Welcome, fellow post-apocalyptic readers! Here is version 2.2 of the my collection. I take no credit for any scanning or whatnot, just compilation and conversion to HTML when appropriate. Contained in this collection: Adams, John Joseph (ed) - Wastelands - Stories of the Apocalypse Aldiss, Brian - Greybeard Aldiss, Brian - Hothouse Anderson, Poul - Vault of the Ages Atwood, Margaret - Oryx and Crake Atwood, Margaret - The Handmaid's Tale Ballard, JG - The Drowned World BeauSeigneur, James - Christ Clone Series Brackett, Leigh - The Long Tomorrow Brin, David - The Postman Brunner, John - The Sheep Look Up Budrys, Algis - Burning World Budrys, Algis - Some Will Not Die Butler, Octavia - Parable of the Sower Butler, Octavia - Parable of the Talents Card, Orson Scott - The Folk of the Fringe Christopher, John - The Death of Grass (AKA No Blade of Grass) Crace, Jim - The Pesthouse Crowley, John - Engine Summer Dick, Philip K - Dr Bloodmoney or How We Got Along After the Bomb Dickson, Gordon - Wolf and Iron Disch, Thomas - The Genocides DuPrau, Jeanne - The City of Ember England, George Allan - Darkness and Dawn Florman, Samuel - The Aftermath Frank, Pat - Alas, Babylon Galouye, Daniel - Dark Universe Goonan, Kathleen Ann - Nanotech Series Herbert, Frank - The White Plague Hoban, Russell - Riddley Walker Huxley, Aldous - Ape and Essence James, P.D. - The Children of Men Kearny, Cresson - (Non Fiction) Nuclear War Survival Skills Kornbluth, CM - The Syndic Laumer, Keith - Catastrophe Planet Leiber, Fritz - Gather, Darkness! London, Jack - The Scarlett Plague Matheson, Richard - I Am Legend McCammon, Robert - Swan Song McCarthy, Cormac - The Road McDevitt, Jack - Eternity Road McIntyre, Vonda - Dreamsnake Merle, Robert - Malevil (Non English) Merril, Judith - Shadow on the Hearth Miller, Walter - St Leibowitz and the Wild Horse Woman Miller, Walter - A Canticle for Leibowitz Niven, Larry - Lucifer's Hammer Norton, Andre - Daybreak 2250 AD Norton, Andre - No Night Without Stars O'Brein, Robert - Z for Zachariah Palmer, David - Emergence Pangborn, Edgar - Davy Roshwald, Mordecai - Level 7 Sheffield, Charles - Aftermath 1 - Aftermath Sheffield, Charles - Aftermath 2 - Starfire Shiel, MP - The Purple Cloud Shelley, Mary - The Last Man Shute, Nevil - On the Beach Simak, Clifford - Cemetary World Smith, Mitchell - Snowfall Series Stewart, George R - Earth Abides Stirling, SM - Change Series Tucker, Wilson - The Long Loud Silence Tucker, Wilson - The Year of The Quiet Sun Varley, John - Millennium Wells, HG - World Set Free Wharton, Edith - False Dawn Wilhelm, Kate - Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang Williams, Walter - The Rift Wylie, Philp & Balmer, Edwin - When Worlds Collide Wylie, Philp & Balmer, Edwin - After Worlds Collide Wyndham, John - The Chrysalids Zelazny, Roger - Damnation Alley Keep in mind that a few of these titles aren't exactly post-apocalyptic (meaning that a major event hasn't wiped out most of the planet or humankind), but they do follow the theme to a degree. For example, John Brunner's "The Sheep Look Up" tells the story of an overly-polluted Earth and its effects on mankind. Admittingly, I haven't read all of these, but I do recommend Walter Smith's "A Canticle for Leibowitz" and Cormac McCarthy's "The Road" if you haven't dove into the genre before. More to come!....once I find them. If you find anything from John Joseph Adams' list (link below) and I don't have it here, email it to gerardofutah@gmail.com. Include what name you wish to be thanked by. FAQ: Q: So, what do I need to start reading? A: The eBooks are in different formats, so you may need a couple of programs. Foxit Reader is great for PDFs and your web browser of choice can read the *.html, *.rtf, and *.txt files. Q: Some of these aren't formatted too well. A: What do you want for free? Go buy the actual book.

You're missing the 'Autumn' series, which is a great zombie apocalypse series of novels. The first one is being made into a movie right now or may even be out already.
I'm trying to avoid anything zombie related. Although I haven't looked into it, I imagine there is enough material out there for a collection, though.
Thank you so much for this collection! I really loved that the zip was so small, yet so complete.
Wow... great collection.
Very nice! Huge fan, have tracked down lots of these, but haven't been able to get my hands on most of them!
THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!
Have you ever seen the Ashes series by William Johnstone and thought of uploading it?
myrrdrin:
I looked for the complete Ashes series some time ago and came up with very little. I just did a search on another site and came up with books 1 - 33. From what it looks like, this series would fit perfectly in with the collection. Great suggestion!
If anyone else has any suggestions, please post them!

Awesome! Now I have incentive to get an ebook reader!
(PS Thanks for uploading :D:D)
Gerard, you sir are the man. This is a great collection of books. Stirling has a new series coming out that is in a later era of The Change Series. If you manage to get ahold of that, will you post it as well?
RavenVanya,
I imagine that I would, but I'm not looking for additional books as heavily as I used to. I'll probably post one more update and call it a day. What is here should keep everyone busy for a while, though. :)

great upload!
You should put in the Autumn series, they're good.
Otherwise, good torrent, tnx.

I would say The Penultimate Truth would be a better one from Phil Dick - it's one of my favourites and has a cheeky kind of humour to it...
great collection, tho!
great collection, tho!
thanks for the upload .. culdn't find City of Ember anywhere else ...
So I had a horrible crash... thanks 7 and thank you Bill Gates. Went back to Ubuntu. Unfortunately I only lost a few things, this collection being one of them.
So, thanks for the additions GerardOfUtah. Still one of the best Ups I've seen in a long time. You have some books on here that can't be found anywhere else!
Just one more thing... I know I've already mentioned it and you probably won't be adding anything else to this Up which is fine but Stirling did add another trilogy to the Change Series. If you come across it it would make a great addition to this nearly perfect torrent.

Great up, I read through some of these a year ago, nice to have when you most to a new country and don't have internet!
They made 'The Road', I watched it and the whole time thought something was very familiar, then I knew what would happen next, and every scene was just as it played out in my head.
Except in my head there was more detail, and it played out better, specifically the last scene at that boat.
Book's better.
Great post though keep it up.
http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Overview_Timeline_%281983:_Doomsday%29
That's a great site, but that one is my favorite timeline, it's very well written, just navigate around it's wiki, and somewhere is a page with the play by play. Also read about the individual links, their all well done.

thanks for the d/l will seed 500mb before i shut her down thanks alot...
You are my new god.Great work!!!!!!
You should really clarify that most of the files in here are simply links to a website with nothing but text.
Wow, this torrent is still going. I sorta forgot about it.
For those complaining that you are getting a bunch of link in the torrent, I don't know what to tell you. I doubt 25 (as of this posting) people would be seeding a torrent full of crap. Get your computer checked out, I guess.
I don't have a decent internet connection to update this torrent right now, but that may change in the future.
