more dystopia please

[theredjellybean]

help..i think i have run out of dystopian futures..

i have read all Margaret Atwood
the power, vox, the wall, the ship, farneheight 451, a book by ben elton about illegal books ( can't recall the name) , only ever yours, and the well, another one about a plague/virus in uk ( cant recall its name follows two mums and group of kids who were camping at the time escape to norway) , all three of the passage trilogy...

some more suggestions please....

[MustBeAWeasly]

Have you read The Road by Cormac Mccarthy?
It's brilliant. About a father and young son travelling across America after some post apocalyptic catastrophe

[Livid21]

The Stand by Stephen King. Swan Song by Robert McCammon.

[TheGirlWhoLived]

I enjoyed red rising trilogy (piers brown) and working my way back through Trudi Canavan (black magician trilogy, maybe more YA)
Ready player one is fab, as is 1984, there’s a great big series by Michael gant I think (starts off with plague, then hunger then pain, there’s about 7 of them) all YA esque too
Uglies worth a go, Graceling trilogy was fun will follow for inspiration

[theredjellybean]

Thanks... Ready player one I saw at cinema. Indeed was clever
Ya fiction I can find a bit... Well teenager but will look at all the suggestions.
Someone in rl suggested the flood and the ark but hard sifi might be difficult, however I loved the passage and the two that followed and that's a bit way out there... Vampires and zombies. I will give anything a go once.

The Power . It dips slightly in the middle but the ending esp the last line makes up for it.

[JustHereForThePooStories]

cant recall its name follows two mums and group of kids who were camping at the time escape to norway

Jo Furniss’ All the Little Children?

[theredjellybean]

Yes that's the one...

Already read the power.
What do other people think of vox?
I thought it was as good as handmaid's tale... Which is saying something as MA is my favourite author

[Winterfellismyhome]

The ready player one film missed out massive parts of the book, they changed a lot. I defo recommend the book over the film

Station 11. Gorgeous book.

[AFistfulofDolores1]

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley

[RiddleyW]

Second for station 11 - best book I’ve read in ages

[MemorialBeach]

I second The Stand. Also We by Yevgeny Zamyatin.

[PomBearWithAnOFRS]

The "White Flag of the Dead" series by Joseph Talluto. They are really good, some of the very few 'disposable' eBooks I ever re-read.
I like the old classic "cozy catastrophe" stuff too, John Wyndham and John Christopher in particular.
If you liked the Passage, you might like the "Forest of Hands and Teeth" and the sequel by Carrie Ryan.

S. M. Stirling Emberverse series starts with Dies the Fire.

The Postman by David Brin

Harry Turtledove Supervolcano series

[Patr1ckJane]

The passage

[Momzilla82]

A third for station eleven. One of those books that stayed with me for a long time afterwards

[ElizabethinherGermanGarden]

A Lovely Way to Burn - Louise Welch
It's another plague apocalypse one but it's well worth a read. Great central character and it's the start of a trilogy.

[ElizabethinherGermanGarden]

Also, Pontypool Changes Everything by Tony Burgess. It's more horror than dystopia. Very odd! I heard it as a radio play and was hooked.

[BikeTart]

The Long Walk by Stephen King writing as Richard Bachman. Really very good.

[buckingfrolicks]

Wool. Best dystopian trilogy I have ever read.

[sakura06]

Another for 'Station Eleven' by Emily St John Mandel and 'The Passage' by Justin Cronin!

If you like fantasy, I'd also recommend N.K. Jemisin's Broken Earth trilogy.

[QuilliamCakespeare]

Can't remember the author but I'm reading a trilogy that's really good - the first book is 'Infection'. The characters are well rounded, the plot is compelling, and the outlook is suitably grim.

I loved Vox. Have you read The Power by Naomi Alderman? Thats on a par with Vox IMO.

If you haven't read the Passage Trilogy by Justin Cronin I highly recommend that. I'm jealous of anyone who gets to read it for the first time!

[QuilliamCakespeare]

Sorry, missed that you'd read The Power already.

Station Eleven is really good.

Remembered another that I LOVE: The Wool Series by Hugh Howey. It's based on a community that live underground in a silo and people get sent outside to their deaths if they step out of line. Society rapidly starts to unravel...

[QuilliamCakespeare]

@buckingfrolicks and @sakura06 You are totally my people

[ZipityFlippity]

The Wool Trilogy by Hugh Howey. I was so sad to finish the trilogy and even fan fiction written based upon it.
