The Electric Archipelago (WIP)
This is the first draft of my new cyberpunk novel, The Electric Archipelago. In the future humanity is imprisoned by massive corporations. Computers are directly connected to their brains, creating a nightmarish state of absolute control, every action is monitored and harshly judged. Perhaps worst of all, the victim's perception of reality itself is controlled. A system of social credit hangs over everyone's heads. If you want to survive you will need to pick a company and stay loyal to that brand. But it goes beyond that, because each corporation has been infiltrated and taken over by forces that are interested in more than just profit. John is a Skinwalker, a free man, a man who is immune to these restrictions. He goes where he wants and does what he wants, moving from one augmented reality to the next, always looking for the next score.Complete
Lossless of Riptides (Prototype)
NOTE: As this story is finished (read: every chapter written), it still has a lot of issues in punctuation and spelling. This is published as a prototype. February 12th, 1996. An older teenager in a educational-run retro-futurist metropolis is about to have a bad day. After being threatened by thugs from a rogue academy, he blacks out and wakes back up to destruction around him. Worse, an strange being is also about to rise from within, while discovering a series of events that led to a country's collapse almost three decades ago and its teenager's story. Bring a lot of tissues. An Pre-Cyberpunk/Post-Apocalyptic Psychological Horror Action-Adventure epic, Lossless of Riptides is the introduction to Serenareal proper- laying the foundations for its mythology and long storyline about a flying machine of destruction and the influences corrupting the world into constant chaos. It is also an examination of the Hero's Journey and its logical consequences.Complete
