Synopsis

In Beyond Armageddon, the distinguished science fiction writer Walter M. Miller Jr. (1923-96) and the famed anthologist Martin H. Greenberg have together collected stories that address one of the most challenging themes of imaginative fiction: the nature of life after nuclear war. The twenty-one stories in this collection, by masters such as Arthur C. Clarke, Poul Anderson, Ray Bradbury, J. G. Ballard, Robert Sheckley, Roger Zelazny, and Harlan Ellison, explore a variety of possibilities of life after. 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. New to this Bison Books edition is a postscript to the introduction provided by Martin H. Greenberg.

Media Reviews
In these troubled times, the University of Nebraska Press has rendered a great service in reprinting this 1985 anthology of life in the aftermath of cataclysmic (usually nuclear) war... Walter M. Miller, Jr. came out of self-imposed retirement long enough to put together this extraordinary volume... One of the most compelling anthologies of short fiction, post-holocaust SF or otherwise, ever assembled. -Home Planet News
