* In ''TheChroniclesOfNarnia'' novel ''The Magician's Nephew'', the city/dimension of Charn is one of these by the time Digory and Polly arrive. The buildings, sidewalks, and other examples of human industry are mostly intact, though in a state of ruin. However, except for the witch queen Jadis, every other living thing on the planet (including vines partially pulled down walls) was killed by the Deplorable Word. It's more than a little creepy.
* Mars in [[RayBradbury Ray Bradbury's]] ''TheMartianChronicles'' is like this, showing signs of a CrystalSpiresAndTogas civilization.
* Jonathan Lethem's ''Girl In Landscape'' primarily takes place on a GhostPlanet which is being sparsely colonized by humans. There are still a few lingering aliens, but they have only a passive interest in either the humans or the relics of their ruined civilization.
* ''Revelation Space'' by AlastairReynolds has an archaeologist main character and the plot centers on the mystery behind the dead Amarantin civilization.
* In Asimov's ''[[{{Foundation}} Earth and Foundation]]'', the characters discover some of the planets where space-faring humans first settled, in ruins and devoid of intelligent life.
* Mars in HBeamPiper's short story "Omnilingual." His short story "Graveyard of Dreams," later expanded into the novel ''The Cosmic Computer'', took its title from a poem by a colonist on Mars who was apparently inspired by the planet's ruins.
* Paul S. Kemp's ''The Twilight War'' trilogy set in the Forgotten Realms reveals that [[spoiler: Shar has been doing this to other worlds and intends to do the same to Abeir-Toril.]]
