After

If the melt-down, the Flood, a plague, the third World War, a new Ice Age, The Rapture, an alien invasion, a clamp-down, or a deadly meteor hit today, what would tomorrow look like?

Some of the biggest names in YA and adult literature answer that very question in this short story anthology, each story exploring the lives of teen protagonists raised in catastrophe's wake-whether set in the days after the change, or decades far in the future.

New York Times bestselling authors Gregory Maguire, Garth Nix, Susan Beth Pfeffer, Carrie Ryan, Beth Revis, and Jane Yolen are among the many popular and award-winning storytellers lending their talents to this original and spellbinding anthology.
