Post-Apocalyptic Novel

Two covers of the novel "Vault of the Ages" (1952) by Poul Anderson,


500 years in the future after a nuclear holocaust, there is Carl, a young man the son of the Chief of the Dalesmen, a community of peaceful farmers. This community is threatened by the Lann, a tribe of warriors from the north who are fleeing their increasingly cold homeland. On their way they are conquering and subjugating all other communities. Looking for help, Carl enters the ruins of one of America's ancient cities, which are inhabited by ragtag groups of people whom everybody calls witchmen or worse.
All in all a good old post-apocalyptic action novel, where people has fallen back on a kind of sword and sorcery.

Post-apocalyptic Pin-Up


The erotic model Jenny P aka Penny Mathias in a post-apocalyptic setting. I never understood what this high heels could be good for in the figh for survival, but anyway it’s already an obligatory commonplace.
It should be considered furthermore that these photos originate from the same origins like BeyoncĂ©’s video, the photos are only a lot less pretentious.
