You can't survive a nuclear war...

Two tales of love and loss and nuclear war.

Thirteen Minutes

Caught in a supermarket, when the alarm goes off, Luke and David admit some unspoken truths to each other before the bombs fall.

Four Minute Warning

Tracy and Jimmy know you can't survive a nuclear war, even if civil defence leaflets and radio broadcasts claim otherwise. So they head for the seaside to wait for the end of the world.

These are two short apocalyptic tales of 5700 words or approximately 20 print pages altogether.

Warning: These stories are very dark and contain quite a bit of swearing.
