What's the scariest novel or story you've read?

Larry Niven's "Lucifer's Hammer" about the effects of a comet hitting the Earth. No last-minute heroics like Armageddon or even Deep Impact, to avert disaster, just a trashed world blasted back to the Iron Age, filled with cannibalistic gangs and starving refugees.

Not scary in the Night of the Living dead sense, but it did make for several weeks of comet paranoia. (I got better.)

I actually love all that kind of post-apocalyptic stuff! Mad max movies, etc. I'll definetly check this novel out. Cheers!
