guys please don't read this anymore lmao i write totally differently now💋 _________________ In a future where humans are genetically modified -- 'altered' -- at the age of sixteen, the world has been, until now, a safe place. Without changing a person's personality, undergoing the Alteration perfects their appearance, IQ, and even their immunity to diseases. No human passes the age of sixteen without being Altered. In the blink of an eye, things change. An ominous message is sent out to all of those below the age of sixteen, providing precise instructions that suggest they flee. Simultaneously, a deadly virus starts to spread all about the world, attacking only the Altered -- every human over the age of sixteen. The virus eats at the modified human brain, and soon the Unaltered begin to realise that the Altered are losing their minds. Home is no longer safe. Friends and family turn on one another, losing control of their own minds and bodies. The Unaltered aren't safe. Even if the virus isn't attacking them, the ones with the virus are. Set on a pristine, futuristic Earth, this is the apocalypse like you've never seen it before. (Rated mature for graphic depictions of violence and mild language.)

The Oracle Trilogy Book One Ohm's Node

31 parts Ongoing

It's 2035. After worldwide walks of tears and protests of the scientific community joined by artists, and millions of people who demanded oil companies and other carbon emitters stop, a consortium of the world's wealthiest, tech and Heads of State is convened, setting down a Hail Mary manifesto with an 'everything on the table' epic approach to reestablishing a habitable planet by 2200. And because they're throwing everything at it, in hopes that something sticks, something does, one of those unexpected things that changes everything. Or to quote Bob Dylan~ Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected expected?
