The first 2/3 of The Stand
Don't remember the cause in The Postman, might have been war though. Not much focus on the cause, just the rise and adaptation of civilization afterward. Robert McCammon's Swan Song and William R. Forstchen's One Second After are both pretty good, but again nuclear war. The king of the after the nuke's novels though will probably always be Pat Frank's "Alas Babylon". I'm not a big fan of Earth Abides or On The Beach myself.
