**The Road by Cormac McCarthy**
A father and son journey through post-apocalyptic America, encountering the best and worst of humanity along the way.
**Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel**
This book beautifully weaves together the stories of an actor, a prophet, and a traveling symphony in the aftermath of a global pandemic.
**Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro**
A haunting story that delves into themes of humanity, existential dread, and the preciousness of time.

If you’re looking for a string of novellas, then I’d go for *Murderbot*.
If you’re instead looking for sci-fi with a twist/mystery, then *Wayward Pines*, *The Never-Ending End of the World* or *The Space Between Worlds*.
