John Christopher (1922 - 2012) was a representative of classic British fiction.
His novel "The Death of Grass" was included in the list of the hundred best science fiction books, and "At the Edge of the Abyss" - in the hundred best books in the genre of horror.
This collection features Christopher's best-known catastrophe novels, akin to the phantasmagorias of H.G. Wells and Wyndham, the golden classics of the post-apocalyptic.
"The Long Winter" tells of a sudden drop in solar activity and a freezing Europe, of hordes of settlers moving south. "At the Edge of the Abyss" paints a picture of a series of tremendous earthquakes wiping cities and even entire countries off the map. "The Death of Grass" tells of a world-wide famine caused by a virus that destroys flora.
