There are many amazing books dealing with the end of civilisation, so it can be tough to decide where to start. Here is a brief list of five to get you started on your journey. They each have different approaches to the End Times for London; some are caused by human actions, while external factors influence others.
The Day of the Triffids – John Wyndham
If you have not read this book yet, then you need to stop what you are doing and read it now!
The War of the Worlds – HG Wells
This classic alien invasion story sets the standard for all that followed it. It is still being re-envisioned today and is a must-read book. Read the RavensWatch review of this masterpiece here.
V for Vendetta – Alan Moore
Sometimes a book becomes bigger than anyone thought possible. This graphic novel has become a movement.
The Children of Men – P.D. James
When children stop being born and a despotic ruler takes over, truly, we are living in post-apocalyptic times.
The Drowned World – JG Ballard
London has been turned into a submarine city by the melting of the icecaps, but, even underwater, those streets may be paved with gold! For more details, read the RavensWatch review by clicking here.
