Dad's Nuke is a science fiction dark comedy novel by American writer Marc Laidlaw. It is a parody of middle class suburban life and tells the tale of a nuclear family in the post-nuclear (holocaust) age. The story consists of a series of episodes demonstrating the ridiculousness of the family's sheltered, conformist lives and culminates in the collapse from within of the suburban community. The title refers to a trailer-mounted nuclear missile purchased by the family's father figure, as part of his hostile competition with his next door neighbor.[1]

Kirkus Reviews dismissed the book as "sometimes diverting but more often depressing."[2] Publishers Weekly called it "an inventive and energetic satire, reminiscent of the work of Philip K. Dick."[3]
