The world is separated, ruled by those with power and money. For those with power and money, choice is no longer a deciding factor as it causes inconvenience and stress. The Peakers have created a way to handle any decision. They no longer make decisions thanks to the Dwellers' labor in the poor area of town. The Dwellers still make their own choices, but they just don't have many.All Rights Reserved

Terraria: Another Day Under the Glass by WBarney

'Death never stops surprising you.' A sentiment Aria knows all too well. Her world on its surface is perfect. A completely enclosed ecosystem protected from the nuclear winter of the Outside World. No sickness, no famine, nothing to worry about. Nothing that is except for Spectre, the computer system that determines who lives and dies annually based on their importance to society. Somehow everyone around her seems to cope, but seeing as how Spectre has taken every member of her family, Aria struggles to fall in line with the status quo. Whether it's pressure from the powers that be, her first potential love, or full on revolution, Aria seems to be pulled in every direction, each one with drastic consequences, and no clue which way to go.

Tide of Traitors by 10-III0

It's the near future, and an AI has been put in charge of society in order to eliminate inequality and bring about perfect justice. However, this has resulted in mass imprisonment as each and every person is made to pay for the collective imperfections of mankind. Except for those outside of the system. Some survive on offshore platforms and converted ships, away from the watchful eye of the android forces. But life on the waves is often dangerous, and not everyone is as they seem...

the final compromise by goldsandcastles

In a dystopian world, a set of diverse people struggle to live with an unforeseeable future. The central power kills off the ones they don't see fit, tainted with a goal apathetic to the others.

The Spare by tpinley

In the cutthroat job market of the future -- in which synthetics are pitted against humans -- Max is considered to be a "Spare," an obsolete model unfit for work. Now, thanks to a new diversity initiative, he finally has the chance to work at NeuraLife, and he'll do anything it takes to succeed. But when his enigmatic new boss asks him to take part in a controversial experiment connecting human brains with synthetics, Max must decide what matters most to him... Changing a corrupt system? Or joining it? Copyright © 2018

Truth Hidden In The Shadows by justin-drake

What will you choose when someone asks you what type of world you want? What will you do if the people you once protected turned against you? What will you do if you get to know the world you once lived in It isn't like what you and others say? A stunning story of a man alone against the whole world, full of conspiracy theories, action, adventure and truth. A gamble that changed the world. When the city is drenched with blood and screams of horror they ask me what I truly wanted if it was the bloodlust or destruction or screams of terror? I said No, But rather to kneel and live in Heaven I will choose to stand up and die in Hell instead. As for your choice I don't care since I'm going to die anyway.

Prodigy (Complete) by EdwardMullen

The greatest tragedy the world has ever known turned out to be the ultimate catalyst for change. In the wake of World War III, which decimated most of the world's population, the remaining survivors vowed to not continue to repeat the same mistakes of the past. Fortunately, they had something previous generations did not have - advanced technology. The year is 2117 and this once shattered civilization has become prosperous again. Innovative forms of technology have enabled them to abandon the old model and re-engineer a better way of living for all. Brain implants and genetic modifications have made an entire population educated, healthy, and kind. Despite the benefits of this technology, it has created some unforeseen side effects that threaten humankind's existence. When technology proves to be inept at solving the world's problem, a new hope emerges in the unlikeliest form - a young orphan girl. *** Cyberpunk, dystopian, technology, future, futurism, scifi, heroine, prodigy...

The Royals by pix6ie

[au] 32 years in the future: "The world is empty and cruel. People are selfish. All they want is money and power. They've created a booming city of greed and corruption where they roam and reside. They've taken civilians prisoner to work for them and tend to their every need. They are loathsome. They are gluttonous. They are self- serving. They are the royals.

The Balance (Sample Chapters from the Book and a New Appendix to the story) by MichaelSelden

People in the Land survived the destruction of the last world war only to have their lives disrupted again by a wayward asteroid that broke up to rain down on the planet, just as life had begun to regain a sense of normalcy. This second tragedy also disturbed the power-sharing arrangement between two leading factions that had helped rebuild the Land-the Council, and the Order-in an agreement called The Balance. The Council leadership exploited the chaos to drive the Order and its members into exile, ad they began banning the use of most modern technology, which the Council had long blamed for the war. Phoebe is the last remaining product of the Order's genetic engineering programs that still lives under Council rule. She doesn't understand why she's so different from everyone else, and struggles to survive, hiding what she is. The exiled Order members have realized she's in danger, and their leader sees a potential in her that could help them regain their place in society, and to re-establish The Balance. The Balance is Part 1 of a planned 3-part Story. The Balance was published in 2015 and is available in Hardcover, Paperback, and Kindle Editions
