But with the one defining feature separating her from the rest- a single, luminescent, blue eye- she finds herself isolated from everything she has ever known, and dependent on a people she once considered far beneath her. ********** © 2017 AaPThomps all rights reserved.

After the world collapsed, with half the country ravaged by wild fires and the rest divided up into classist sectors made up of whoever is left, Matthew Spender wants nothing more than to go about his life as normally as possible. His father is a prestigious engineer, working for the higher ups, and his mother, a clothes maker, and Matthew is usually shunned at school and by society for the former. Matthew's barely normal existence is shattered when the world around him starts changing with the implementation of new, brutal technologies: converting the living into robot-like machines, and the responsibility falls on his unassuming shoulders to right the wrongs. With his close-knit circle of friends and his iron will, Matthew faces the ultimate test that adolescence presents: how much damage can one teenager really do? // BOOK ONE //

Steel Horizon by wildgreenskittle

Four months ago, Earth was attacked by a cyborg species called Scrappers. Two months ago, the Scrappers stopped killing and started taking. None of the captured have been seen again. ** The eyes looking back at me weren't black. His hair was plastered to his head, the same as mine, and that also surprised me. Scrappers didn't sweat. They also didn't breathe heavily, as this one was doing now. He was just as frantic as I was, and his eyes were also just as fearful and wide. He was human. But his arm wasn't. ** Now, within dead cities and abandoned highways, Morgan fights to stay hidden from the Scrappers as they search for humans. She travels alone and trusts no one but herself. But when Morgan meets a boy named Jude with a metal arm, something only the Scrappers could have given him, she chooses to trust him despite her fears telling her otherwise. Not only was Jude taken by the Scrappers, but he was also the first one to survive them and now they want him back. With the Scrappers still hunting them, Morgan and Jude travel east in hopes to find more humans. As their group slowly grows, Jude hides the secret about his arm but when one of their group betrays them, he's found out. When they leave Jude behind for the Scrappers to find, Morgan surrenders herself over with him, even when it may cost her her life. As final a battle rages around them between humans and Scrappers, Jude and Morgan may be the key to ending it all.
