After: Nineteen Stories of Apocalypse and Dystopia

by Beth Revis, Ellen Datlow, Garth Nix, et al.

Book Overview

If the melt-down, flood, plague, the third World War, new Ice Age, Rapture, alien invasion, clamp-down, meteor or something else entirely hit the world today, what would tomorrow look like? Some of the biggest names in YA and adult literature answer that very question in this short story anthology, each story exploring the lives of teen protagonists raised in catastrophe's wake - whether set in the days after the event, or decades far in the future. Gregory Maguire and Garth Nix are among the many popular storytellers lending their talents to this original anthology.
