Humanity only had themselves to blame as the world fell into dystopian disarray. Suicide rates, poverty, crime, and unemployment were the highest they'd ever been. The burning question was, "What now?" Society's singular boon was the technological and scientific advancement that never stopped, even as world populations hit a record low. Expanding upon genetic research studies from the beginning of the 2000's, a select handful of babies were modified to reduce the destructive qualities in present populations. These Altered fetuses were sent to manufactured civilizations, paired with the most stable guardians that could be rounded up. But when you tinker with something as complex as human lives and emotions, things are bound to go awry. 

This book follows Sawyer, an Altered man,  as he grows into his new role and explores a world bigger than he knew could exist.

The War In His Mind

44 parts Complete Mature

After war devastated the United States, a survivor buried himself deep underground in a cryostasis chamber connected to a digital world- Wonder City. Dedicated to creating a perfect society, Thomas O'Neil transported his consciousness to the city and dedicated his life to creating a better world. But there's a major catch- everyone in the world is an exact clone of him without any emotions, passions, or original thoughts. Everyone is created through "The Code", a computer code designed to create people and assign jobs. For years it's worked flawlessly, filling Wonder City full of workers and civilians. The society was successful. Until one day when a glitch in the code created the first clone with emotions and thoughts- #937. Angry and determined to have free will, 937 sets out on a path to create a better world from the ashes of the old empire. What happens when the city of the future becomes a world that O'Neil can't contain? Welcome to Wonder City. Welcome to the future. **** Please keep in mind that this is a first draft. Many details, paragraphs, and chapters will inevitably change between this and the final version. There's still lots to be smoothed out. Thank you for understanding! I'm very open to suggestions! -Andrew Purdum
