I am surprised not to see Stirling's Emberverse series listed here. The very best EOTWAWKI scenarios I've read start with something ... weird.
My gripe with the above list is that physics hasn't been messed with, at which point it devolves to who keeps the tech going. More fun if stuff just quits and people have to improvise. Jmo.

I saw where BC was doing the round of morning shows to promote the new novel. Let us know if it's any good.
