'''''Johnny and the Bomb''''' is a 1996 [[novel]] by [[Terry Pratchett]]. It is the third novel to feature [[Johnny Maxwell]] and his friends, and deals with the rules and consequences of [[time travel]]. The first two novels in the ''Johnny Maxwell Trilogy'' are ''[[Only You Can Save Mankind]]'' (1992) and ''[[Johnny and the Dead]]'' (1993).

The action of the novel revolves around an incident during [[World War II]] in which Johnny's inoffensive home town of Blackbury was hit by a bomb during an [[airstrike|air raid]] intended for an industrial complex at another nearby town. It is this bomb, and not [[nuclear weapon]]s, to which the title refers.
