In Beyond Armageddon, the distinguished science fiction writer Walter M. Miller Jr. (1923–96) and the famed anthologist Martin H. Greenberg (1941-2011) have together collected stories that address one of the most challenging themes of imaginative fiction: the nature of life after nuclear war. 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. All stories are preceded by intros, written by Miller, which comment on the story to come, and sometimes also the story preceeding the note.

Book Details
First Sentence
"For the most part, this book is about the aftermath of Megawar, but in a frequent speculative scenario, the last "war" in the world, rather than beginning with sneak megabangs by a superpower, escalates from a murderous scuffle where both sides are out of boundsin a place such as Iran, Cuba, Pakistan, Nicaragua; the scuffle builds through angry frustration to a few rounds of kiloton-level tactical violence, and thence to the insane confrontation: the last called bluff."
