Ooooh,
not heard of that one. Will have to try it.
On The Beach (Neville Shute) was the most horrifically bleak book I've read in that genre.

It's aimed at young adults
& by Louise Lawrence if you're interested. It's from the perspective of a family- the dad ends up in a military bunker, and the mum and kids stay in their basement.

Thanks, looked it up
and it appears to be out of print. Cheapest I found a used copy was for $24.

Wow
I just looked at my bookshelf and my brain went, "Ka-ching!" :P
