Some people say that ignorance is bliss; Ellie thinks it can kill you. Ever since she woke up with a black hole where her memories should be, she hasn't known who to trust. But she refuses to be kept in the dark. Influence seems to lurk closer with each passing day. The people around her are carrying more secrets than she can keep track of. Even her own body is hiding something from her, and everyone seems to know what it is.

Submerged in a tangled web of lies, all Ellie can do is try to keep her head above the surface. As she discovers her path in this new world, a problem arises: who is there to trust when no one is giving answers? Her memories hold the key to a world that was once made better by individualization, and now Ellie must learn of how she fits in to the changes around her. Some truths are best taken to the grave, but this one might just destroy her.

Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.

64 parts Complete Mature

In a world consumed by war, where nations clash over the responsibility of a fatal disease, Emilia awakens with no memories. She has a scar on her wrist, a tag around her neck, and a cryptic mission laid before her, and the only allies she can trust are a group of fellow soldiers who may be hiding the key to her forgotten past. She is told to keep her head down and continue with the mission; terrorism. Emilia's fractured memories are threatening to reveal a dark secret. Beneath her own identity lies a truth she cannot escape. Their mission: to infiltrate and destabilise an enemy they're beginning to suspect may be on their side. Their enemy? Australia. In a place where betrayal can shatter the world, they're forced to play a dangerous Game with devastating consequences. As the line between puppeteer and puppet blurs, Emilia must uncover the truth before they all become casualties of a war where the only way to win is to be the last one standing, even if it means allowing innocence to be killed in the crossfire.
