Evolutionary Action
What happens to that which is stressed beyond its strength yet cannot bend?
It breaks, of course. But what happens when a college campus full of gengineered anthro-rabbits hard-wired to be non-violent find themselves living through and beyond Armageddon? It's not easy to remain a pacifist once an Omega virus has sickened the land and the armies of darkness march unhindered. What do you do when danger edges ever closer and your mental programming offers no flexibility at all? Call in a madrabbit, of course—anthropologist Dr. Rusty Harrison, your leading authority on human conflict resolution behavior. Such as lying, gunfighting, spying, booby trapping, infiltration...
...and artifact stealing.

After most of humanity is killed by a plague, the United States splits into small nations warring over who will get to rebuild. The hero's community, an isolationist university where a race of rabbit-people have been created to lead the world to peace and harmony, is one of them. Like meat-eaters who look down on the butcher, they have an agent who in their minds has defiled himself with guns and violence... but they need him. The scary thing is, there're several kinds of villains here, and they're closer to reality than we'd like to admit. This story has a mix of thoughtful speculation about sanity and morality, and action with military tactics in a future world.
I saw the plot twist coming from well out of shooting range, and it could've used another round of copy editing, but overall it's a solid story worth reading.
