Can you recommend the best post apocalyptic survival fiction?

One of the best is 'Metro 2033'. It's set in the Moscow metro after a nuclear war. The people there have created their own little societies underground. 'The Maze Runner' is also good. It has a group of young people trapped in a maze and they have to figure out how to survive and escape in a post - apocalyptic - like world. And 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' shows a world where apes are taking over and humans are on the verge of extinction, with great survival - related storylines.

Definitely 'The Day of the Triffids'. It's about these large, mobile plants that start attacking humans after most of the population has been blinded. It's an oldie but a goodie. 'Oryx and Crake' by Margaret Atwood is also excellent. It shows a world that has been destroyed by genetic engineering gone wrong. The story follows the last human as he tries to make sense of what has happened. 'Fahrenheit 451' can be seen as post - apocalyptic in a sense, as it shows a world where books are burned and critical thinking is suppressed.

Sure. 'World War Z' is great. It gives a global perspective on a zombie apocalypse. 'Blade Runner' also fits in a way, with its dystopian future where replicants and humans co - exist in a rather precarious way. Another is 'Snowpiercer', which is set on a train that travels around a frozen world and the class struggle within the survivors on the train.
