Ah, but there is. I highly recommend S.M. Stirling's Emberverse series: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emberverse_series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emberverse_series
Well worth the read. One Second After: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Second_After https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Second_After is another great choice.
