You mean an old-skool, US-vs-USSR, Cold War heats up, nukes everywhere WW3 novel? Not some newfangled West-vs-Islam, fourth-generation decentralized kinda thing? Or alternate history things? You mean a novel that still has the war happening in the future as of the time of its writing?

I dunno, but I bet there was at least one already in the publication pipeline when the Berlin Wall came down.

Wikipedia has a list of apocalyptic fiction, and the novels section mentions Swan Song (1987), The Gate to Women's Country (1988), and The Last Ship (1988). There's also the 1991 Chinese novel Yellow Peril, in which a Chinese civil war triggers a global nuclear exchange.
