agoraphobia dark dna featured future genetic-engineering genetics isolation modification mutation newadult scfi science sciencefiction thebookerawards

Genetic modification has changed the fabric of society. Birthing rights, job opportunities, insurance policies, and school admissions all depend on the value of your DNA. The rich elite pay for their children to be brilliant and beautiful and brave. They live in wealthy Districts and watch as the rest of the population are forced to inhabit poverty-stricken Slums. But, everything is not as it seems; some aspects of the genome are better left untouched. 

For years, behavioral disorders have been correlated to specific genomic features. Unique methylation patterns indicating sociopathy, and psychopathy. Transcriptome commonalities between pyromaniacs, and violent criminals. To house these genetic deviants and keep their cities safe, the Districts rely on rehabilitation centres. During her yearly DNA test, Willa Reyez's is deemed sociopathic. After years of isolation she is forced to learn her own truth. After all, correlation does not imply causation.All Rights Reserved

Behind every mean girl...there's a tragedy by Winchesters_united

The average human being spends every second of his day fighting against the force of nature to see another day. But I'm different. I'm not afraid of outside forces to take my life away - only myself. Approximately 10 years ago, something happened to me. Something really bad. But I'm not allowed to talk about it. As a way to release my frustration, I give hell to my body and everyone I come in contact with - especially my parents. No one knows about what happened except the ones who did it...and Him. But he didn't stay. Now, he's back and he's not talking either. I want to stop hurting, I need to stop. Make me stop.

DarkWing (Final Editing in Progress) by Retrac752

In the year 2092, genetic mutation has cured cancer, but with this new field of research comes a new threat, one the public is blind to. Battling a world controlled by fear, a genius driven by greed, and a species shattered by treachery, one man sees the truth and struggles to end the corruption seething from one of the world's largest corporations. The world as we know it ceases to exist, and he is the only one strong enough to face those that destroyed it. As the lines between man and monster blur, who's to say who the real enemy is.

The Typhon Project by MelindaFriesen

Radiation is decimating the human race. When the Earth's magnet field fails, only the best and brightest young people are selected for genetic modifications that will save them. Leah is among the few chosen to survive. But losing her family and the physical changes caused by the modifications leave her devastated--she hates looking in the mirror at the creature she's become. She's transported to The Farm to be with others of her kind, but when she sneaks from the compound one night, she meets a boy, a human boy, seemingly unaffected by the radiation, who reveals a wild conspiracy theory about the genetic modifications and the very nature of the magnet field failure. His theories could be tumor-induced paranoia. Or he could be telling the a truth.

Extraordinary Mistakes by natalie_s_v

Two opposite sides come face to face, forcing each other to reconsider their version of the truth. *** A minority of the world's population carries a genetic modification. They are called deviants and some develop an ability by the age of seven. In the United States of America, deviants and humans fought each other in the Great War, which ended when the deviants lost. Fifteen years later, everyone lives finally in peace. But when an assassination takes place, it sets in motion several events that put Emily Roberts, the poster child of deviant integration, face to face with Rachel Moore, the leader of the terrorist group for the liberation of deviants. What is the truth and is it worth finding it out? Warning: depiction of trauma / violence / abuse.

Uprising (The Slums) by KnovelleZira

Zeninè Eliz Krisis. That's my name - not my whole name. That's the name they put in my head. The name I hear, see and feel in my dreams. Though, I'm the only one who knows it. But in truth it's near impossible to say out loud. No one can tell it to anyone . . . . It hurts to even try. Your FULL name is like a code or something; only you are supposed to know it. The last name is your model - your type. It's the name of your family of genetics. But, it sometimes means you're all alone. Especially down in the slums.

Imperium by EssoLloydMpetha

Now I have to find a way to save my friend and several others that were taken with me. Things change when a new organization with intentions of taking all the power arises. I find that I have to work together with someone I thought was the enemy to save everybody. I learn the hard way that you can't save them all. My name is Shaun McGee and this is my story.
