Countries like the United States have been destroyed due to inadequate leaders, doctors, and more. A new country called Galenia has taken over what remains of North America and its leaders are determined to keep the country alive. To prevent history from repeating itself a system called The Testing was put into place. Every year, every 16 year old in the country must attend the Opening Ceremony and become part of the testing. Testers either pass or fail which decides who is smart enough to live in Galenia.
Those who fail are wiped from the memories of all in Galenia and are then sent to the Land of the Forgotten, a torturous place hundreds of feet underground.
When it is finally Eleri Cresswell's turn to test she can't help but be filled with dread and fear. And as she hears stories about outcries, hacked memory chips, and executed testers she can't help but feel something much bigger is going on. There is one thing the won't leave her mind though.
Eleri Cresswell will be forgotten.

Earth, After ✔️
Some fates are worse than death--survival is one of them. In the two hundred years since humanity left the Earth's surface to live in the sky, life on the ground faded to a myth, a tragic memory from which they severed themselves to survive. They floated above continents turned to sand and lands swallowed by the seas, watched storm after storm rage against their cities and their monuments until they broke apart the last vestiges of civilization in penance for generations of human greed. As a lightning harvester charged with flying her ship into these storms for energy, Raina has seen more of the planet than most. She has spent her entire life soaring above its craters and scars, studying the gaping wounds of human devastation, as she honed her skills and became the youngest captain in storm-chaser history. Her ship has flown for generations. Her skills are unparalleled. But none of that matters the day they go down. ~ Praise for Earth, After: "I'm so not ready for this ending.
