Recs if you like Defying Doomsday...

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

Fictional settings allowed. Some books may cross borders, inc sections in the US. Allowance made for US indigenous authors

Disability & Neurodivergency stories are rare in apocalypse & zombie books. I've found as many as I could!

As always, suggestions incredibly welcome! I'd love to round this one out!

Not intended as a list of good neurodivergent & dis rep (thou many of them absolutely are - lots are even written by disabled/ND authors! I just haven't yet read them all, so can't recommend every book on this list), but disabled or neurodivergent characters feature heavily in these stories of survival

If you ask someone what apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic fiction they've read, there's a fair chance much of that list will have been written by cis men, because they're the books that get the most promotion in the genre.

My hope is that this list will help someone find a new favourite apocalypse author! ♡
