The year is 2730 and the Earth has become soaked in radiation as a result of a nuclear war that took place hundreds of years ago. Now, the only "safe" place for humans to exist is within the walls of government controlled high-rise cities which have been partially shielded by radiation, just enough for residents to live their life, before they eventually fall ill to unavoidable radiation sickness. 

17 year old Sloane Brewer has grown up on the upper levels of her high rise building almost completely alone, and as a result has turned to thievery as a way of life. When Sloane breaks into the wrong building, accidentally uncovering a deadly government secret, she must turn to her trusty gang of thieves to revolt against the dictating government. 

The only way to find out the truth? Get the hell out of the city. Take her chances in the supposedly radiation-immersed wasteland beyond the walls, where dangers beyond comprehension await.

Earth, After ✔️ by talia-v

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.

• • • • • • She knew it from the very beginning. And the disappearance of Cory's parents just proved it. The city she lived in wasn't kind and the building at the center of it all, Hale, teemed with secrets Cory was desperate to know. She didn't believe her parents were dead. They were out there somewhere, and all signs pointed to the colossal structure looming over the citizens of the city. In the year 2080, a lot is possible. Deceased civilians' memories are extracted in Hale. For the greater good, everyone says. And everyone believes. But when Cory stumbles upon a group of thieves, she has no choice but to set off on a journey with them to discover what is going on and where her parents are. However, she soon realizes the city she lived in all her life is filled with more evil than she anticipated. • • • • • • © retropolis
