cloning dystopian metaphysics solar solarpunk

The worst is over. Social order is on the rise, a new food is feeding all registered families, cloning is outlawed, and the bigger biotech companies are making early strives in reintroducing lost species.

Tilly and Louis, the stewards of a remote, old growth forest, want to keep this new world out. Their responsibility is only to their trees and beloved birds. But with a dwindling trust fund and mounting pressure to lease their land to Anson Genetics, they're faced with a difficult decision. The situation worsens when two human clones, from a defunct project, arrive at their gate.  Now, they must decide to protect the last of the old or the first of the new.

Venus(Preview) by Allen_Tor

"Ever since I took my first breath, my planet has been trying to kill me. Every day the sun rises, a harbinger of life and death. It powers our canopy beasts, cherished by my people, for which they would give both life and blood. A land of wolves: where government and criminals alike prey upon the defenseless. A land where predators stalk their victims in the heat of the day, and in the dead of night. This is Venus." Akur and Aluel, two Venusian nomads find ways to navigate the challenges of their new camp life in the Southern deserts of terraformed Venus. With their father mysteriously absent the two sisters, rely on their canopy beasts-mechanical marvels designed to harness the sun's energy and provide shade amidst the scorching sun. As days pass with no word from their father, and with no money to pay for their camp's upkeep, they struggle to survive amid the dangers of the treacherous human elements around them. And worse yet; summer is coming. Will the two sisters find the strength to survive the coming summer, or will they be just two more victims claimed by the Venusian sands?

She's recently been imprisoned for illegally growing three clones, primarily to help her work side-hustles, and a much harder life now awaits.

Only Hinka HellsPath, her corporate boss stands in the way, and possibly, one of her old clones, the one even smarter than herself. To defeat the all powerful mind-controlling cyborg networks, she'll have to reconnect with her outcast father and solicit the help of a super-sized human brain living in a giant fishbowl, and an AI consciousness cross-bred with the temperament of a canine pet.

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.

THE HUNDRED YEAR MAN by deancmoore

There have been no communiques from Earth post Singularity. The Martian colonists wonder if the race abandoned space-time altogether. But for right now, they have bigger problems. Their sun is going supernova—well ahead of schedule. The two greatest minds of the time, one a scientist, the other a philosopher, concoct a two-pronged plan to save the human race. Frakas, the bioengineer, will continue to seed humanoid and increasingly alien life forms across the heavens using space warping ships. But higher consciousness isn’t exactly his specialty. And the one man who can be bothered to think beyond mean survival, his philosopher friend, Draxor, must be cloned before he passes. Only he can continue to uplift the ragtag worlds of hearty pioneers with little time to savor the finer things in life. Only he can ensure that, for those who choose to remain in the physical universe post Singularity, evolution will win out against the increasingly stronger pull towards barbarism. Thus is born The Hundred Year Man who reigns before passing the torch to the next clone. There is just one problem. The Hundred Year Man is just a prototype—and he’s flawed.
