Fed up with the exploitative and oppressive leadership, a group of young adults comes together to start a revolution. They propose a new system of administration, which offers transparency and accountability on a whole new level. The choice is simple: the people of Whoanoua have 72 hrs after the coup, to decide whether to be ruled by "amateurs" who just overthrew the government, or be delivered back to the hands of their former leaders. Within this period, the book goes through events which led to the coup, looks into the proposed system more profoundly and exposes the strengths and weaknesses of both systems; while dramatically expressing how easily we fall prey to poor leadership, and how much change really costs, despite its inevitability; a cost that must be paid, because of the same!

Wretched Hooligans
When infected with Blackium you lose control of your mind, and body. You act like you would always on a normal day, but when your thoughts don't please the big guys you get 'autocorrected' by them. They don't know they're the villains. They just want to survive. Meet our three dumb hooligans trough an unusual day full of some 'black goo' that will change their lifes forever...for the worse. Sometimes weird stuff happens that leads to some other weird stuff and that's the whole premise of this 'book', don't get too shocked when people die, they might just come back from the dead... ...probably not the same though. !! WARNING !! a shit ton of swearing, mature content, black humor, and whatnot.
The Same Old City
Imagine living in a city that does not allow you to leave at all, exploits you as a person, student, and worker from the day you are born, determines and assigns the "perfect" job for you before you are born, does not allow you any personal freedoms (unless it is alone in your bedroom or bathroom with caution). It will torture or execute, depending on the status or identity of the person, if any law is broken no matter how small or big the law is. That's the city of Dimwar. Tall, thick concrete walls around its borders prevent anyone and everyone from leaving the city- anyone who tries will be searched, chased down, and executed. One teen girl, Taylor Kensley, begins a revolution to change this and fight for the trapped, oppressed people of the city. Will she succeed-- and how long will it take? WHAT will it take? And what will she have to lose to get there? **WARNING: Contains mature scenes with mentions of physical abuse, emotional abuse, domestic violence, self-harm, suicide, murder, and bigotry.

The Last Dream
A fictional story. A critique of American society and its electoral system. How capitalist elites manipulate public opinion and alter reality to impose their political agendas, putting democratic institutions at risk. And how one social class reserves the exclusive right to govern over another by paying for the ways to power with money, the only true resource that grant access to the government of what boasts of being one of the most successful democracies on the planet. In this story the main character takes advantage of the absurdity that surrounds him to make his way thru society and succeed by means of stupidity and ignorance.Complete
Zero
Over time, there have been many social and political systems, this is probably the sixth imposed since the second era, all claiming to be different from their predecessor, but always maitaining two absolute invariables; the first is the one that will always be a marginalized class -which will allow a few to stay on top- and the second, the oppressed class that will be waiting for any opportunity to overthrow their oppressors. For better or for worse, I was born a Zero, the fact that I exist is already a crime and still, my family decided to be brave and keep me with them, hiding me in the shadows. They kept me for too long behind the back of the See. But now that I have empowered more than the darkness in which I was immerse; anonymity is no longer an option and it the time for Erst to know me has finally come.Complete
