In honour of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, what are the best dieselpunk and/or post-apocalyptic books?Answer
We've been truly blessed to have such a strong prequel to one of the greatest post-apocalyptic action films of all time, Mad Max: Fury Road. With that in mind, what are some books that evoke similar vibes in their worldbuilding as the petrol-stained Australian wasteland of Mad Max? Mad Max DNA: ## - Post-apocalyptic, underpopulated world - Scavenger industry, resource scarcity - Ostentatious displays of personality—camp humour - Warring factions - Heart—rare but impactful displays of humanity in the midst of a depraved society
