Scars Of 2039
It's the year 2060. The last world war was fought not with soldiers, but with code, machines, and stolen time. Democracy is dead. Earth is dying. And those who survived rule with knowledge they should've destroyed. Now, survival depends on power-and power depends on what you find first. This is a story of war beyond borders. War beyond time. War beyond galaxies. We used to fear nuclear bombs. Now we fear the collapse of space itself. We thought we were building the future. We didn't realise we were rewriting it. This isn't just a story. This is our future.Complete

MAD
Wattys Shortlist 2022 - In the shadow of a ruined world, survival comes at a cost. Decades after modified radiation bombs decimated the earth, the survivors of New Australia live in fractured Zones-regions ruled by scarcity, controlled by gangs, and governed by fear. The bombs didn't just destroy cities; they unleashed two devastating plagues. D.V.B, a deadly airborne illness, wiped out millions. But M.A.D was worse-a mind- warping disease that turns victims into violent, flesh-hungry predators. In the RedZone, where hope is a luxury and danger is routine, Violet Warrendale has learned to hide in plain sight. By day, she's the reluctant daughter of a prominent gang leader. By night, she's Viper-a deadly ghost in the underworld, wanted for assassination. Vi has only one goal: escape Lake Darling and disappear. For good this time. But when the military storms the RedZone and abducts everyone under twenty-eight, her plan shatters. Imprisoned in a Reproduction Facility-where survival means obedience-Vi must conceal her identity from the enemy. Worse, her cellmate is the gangster responsible for her brother's disappearance. With enemies on every side, secrets buried deeper than the fallout, and a rebellion brewing in the blood-soaked cracks of the system, Vi has a choice: stay hidden, or burn it all down. ...
