The End of the World & After - But Not US-centric!
Much of the post/apoc genre is taken up by US-centric fiction, giving a very specific mindset & often a similar type of apocalypse. There's a strong focus on guns & military. Settings outside the US can provide us with unusual, diverse & interesting stories of survival

D20 Gladlands
Mini Dimension 20 series set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where empathy rules and kindness matters when helping community survive. From blood drives to sunken malls, you have such complex characters that brought me to tears (i cry a lot but truly a beautiful conversation about grief). Found family, community, and grief all come together in this survival season. These books do not guarantee a care bear feeling.
