  The fact that people can’t see newspeak  being implemented with words like unalive just blows my mind.

  No one mentions Justin Cronin’s The Passage, which is the first book of a trilogy. I like the story better than The Stand or Swan Song. I’ve read it twice.

  Actually Vincent Price&apos;s &quot;The Last Man on Earth&quot; was probably closer to Matheson&apos;s work. Will Smith evades the ending by showing &quot;there are other Last Men on Earth,&quot; just way out in the country.

  The Postman is one of my top post apocalyptic books. It feels very real to me.

  Earth Abides by Stewart is the granddaddy of all end of life as we know it novels. &nbsp;It was written in the 1940s and is still the best for conveying what it would feel like to be one of a few survivors, meaning you have lost everyone and everything that made life meaningful. &nbsp;It&apos;s also very hopeful as people do adjust and find hope.<br>Another that is more of a curiosity is The Last Man by Mary Shelley. &nbsp;She wrote it after Frankenstein &nbsp; The writing is very Victorian but it&apos;s an interesting read.

  Never saw any of your videos before this. I have read 5 of the books on your list and now have added the other 5 to my TBR. I&apos;m going to watch some of your other videos now because it appears we might enjoy similar books. Thanks for the list.

  The scariest thing about 1984 isn&apos;t that Big Brother wants to control you. It is that Big Brother wants you to love him.

  Thanks for the fabulous list. &nbsp;I would have included &quot;Parable of the Sower&quot; by Octavia E. Butler. &nbsp;If you haven&apos;t read it, I would definitely recommend.
