Now in eBook: Earth Abides

We are delighted to announce that George R. Stewart‘s post-apocalyptic classic Earth Abides, is finally available in eBook.

In this profound ecological fable, a mysterious plague has destroyed the vast majority of the human race. Isherwood Williams, one of the few survivors, returns from a wilderness field trip to discover that civilization has vanished during his absence.

Eventually he returns to San Francisco and encounters a female survivor who becomes his wife. Around them and their children a small community develops, living like their pioneer ancestors, but rebuilding civilization is beyond their resources, and gradually they return to a simpler way of life.

Available since 1999 as an SF Masterworks paperback, we’re delighted to now be able to bring you one of the twentieth century’s great disaster novels in digital format, available from all eBook retailers.
