The powerful black magician Theron Ware has opened the gates of Hell and unleashed an army of demons. Chaos and destruction prevail, and most of the world lies smouldering in ruins. But in a bunker beneath the ashes of Denver a small group of survivors are determined not to submit to the forces of evil. They summon the nuclear powers of the country's military arsenal to destroy Hell, but what can men do against the almighty evil that is Satan himself? A direct sequel to Hugo Award winner James Blish's occult classic Black Easter (1968), The Day After Judgment (1971) can also be read as a standalone book. Like its predecessor, it features a blend of horror, science fiction, fantasy, philosophy, and black humor that makes it quite unlike anything else you have ever read.

Theron Ware is a renowned scholar and Doctor of Divinity. He is also secretly one of the world's great Black magicians. And when a rich megalomaniac industrialist, Baines, enlists his aid in summoning a demon from Hell to assassinate the governor of California (in an "excess of horror"), Ware has no scruples about accepting the assignment. But this terrible and devilish deed is only a warm-up, a test from Baines to see whether Ware can help him to accomplish his ultimate purpose: opening the gates of Hell and allowing the legions of infernal demons to overrun the world ... Best known as a science fiction writer, James Blish (1921-1975) shows a darker side in his classic Black Easter (1968), a harrowing tale that blends horror, science fiction, fantasy, and a generous dose of black humor. The sequel, The Day After Judgment (1971), is also available from Valancourt." A fine break-through novel for the public that loved Rosemary's Baby." - Publishers Weekly"A book which will fascinate, absorb and scare the hell out of you." - San Francisco Examiner"The ending is an unexpected shocker. Mr. Blish has a capricious, deadly sense of humor. One you'll remember." - Kirkus Reviews
