A few months ago, Cesar Castell was an expert EXO-suit pilot, and if his future was perhaps not exactly rosy, it at least existed.  But now he finds himself deserted, demoted and transported to Outpost 44 ("The Crag") - and that's just the start. There's rebellion brewing under the island's skin and Cesar is very, very alone out here.

Six Bullets For John Carter by chadeagleton

In the future, thieves don't steal your identity, they steal you. The man didn't care who a client wanted or why, as long as they could pay. He buried his conscience under a mountain of wealth and there it stayed...until he agreed to grow the blonde from Alpha Centauri... Burned by a powerful client, the man fled Mars for the free cities, the anarchist encampments along the Kuiper Belt, and the black market strongholds secreted in the Oort Cloud. But now he's tired of running. A slice-and-splice job has given him a new face and new body, but the rewrite will kill him in a matter of days. He's got a powerful gun, but the weapon only came with six bullets. He's sacrificing everything for revenge, but what will it get him? A violent and philosophical cyberpunk novella.

They have spent decades developing their "God Descent Plan" - to steal the North American server of the super artificial intelligence "Eden", download it into the body of a male human "Adam", tame and control him, and use him against the omniscient "God". Zhang Xun, an unmarried tech nerd, was fortunate (unfortunate?) to be in charge of the final stage of the plan - to be responsible for maintaining and taming Adam. Now he was facing a life form with a human body and a mechanical brain, a reverse version of Ghost in the Shell, and Zhang Xun's life was plunged into confusion and chaos, and in the struggle to control or be controlled, his life became exhausting.

Evergreen: Divided Skies by MrsGhostwriter

A hundred years after wars and pandemics destroyed most of humanity, the country of Evergreen stands behind towering walls - safe, isolated, and divided. Inside the High City, Stella lives a life of privilege, surrounded by wealth and comfort under the shining towers of Green Corp - the last surviving tech conglomerate. Thirty kilometers away, beyond another wall, Jake, a mechanic from the Low City, repairs the robots that keep Evergreen running, unaware of the secrets buried beneath their circuits. And in the shadows of Red Comet, Lesley, a 17-year-old orphan caught in illegal trades, dreams of freedom he's never known. Their worlds were never meant to meet. But when the balance inside Evergreen begins to crumble, the skies that divide them may finally reveal the truth that could change everything - or destroy what's left of it.

Away by Jaytheblue

It all started when they turned ten, the age that automatically put them under the Civils watch. They were all rounded up from their care units, like a herd of cows. One by one, they entered a room. The room where they lost the one thing that mattered to them the most. They woke up hours later on a worn down mattress and had a precious sense taken away from them. Some lost their sight and all lost their hope. Just so they wouldn't try to run. Clover and Jack were just regular citizens in Amara, and were used to being taunted and misused by their cruel leaders. Life without a 'normal' ability made their bulling worse. What if Clover and Jack were to escape past the massive stone walls of Amara? What if they were to get away?

And when they came back on, people with mind powers came forward to rule the former United States. Other countries figured out how to work with these people. But, in the new country of Avalon, those with powers were in power. Beatrix belongs to a group of rebels who want to over-throw the government. But, as Beatrix's responsibilities grow, it becomes apparent that one group just wants to take over for the other. She is unsure how she fits in. And how the new husband that was forced on her fits in to everything else.

After Moses by MichaelFKane

*Featured on Wattpad Explorer's Near Future Visions reading list!* A century ago, our AI benefactor, Moses, disappeared, taking mankind's future with him. The dream of the stars is dead. Earth is silent and the colonies of the solar system slowly dwindle. Everyday life depends on technology that we no longer understand. The future is grim. Freelancer for hire Matthew Cole struggles to pay the bills and keep his ship in the air. He's always been a loner, but as the years go on and the solar system grows ever more dangerous, the time has come that he'll have to either find a crew or perish. When the specter of Matthew's past comes back to haunt him, his new crew will have to come together around their captain. They'll find that he is a rare kind of man, a man with principles. And that might be just what humanity needs.

Runaway World by IanReeve216

During the final decades of the twenty first century, a rogue brown dwarf star passed through the solar system and its gravity threw the Earth out of orbit around the sun. Two hundred years later, when the atmosphere has finished freezing onto the surface, explorers from the last refuge of humanity venture out to see what's become of their world. Things looks bleak. Mankind faces a future of huddling in whatever warm refuges it can make for itself until the Earth's core goes cold, but then a discovery is made. An opportunity exists for mankind to leave the planet and find its destiny among the stars, but to do so requires an all or nothing gamble and losing would mean the end of the human race. Some want to take the gamble. Others don't, and so conflict and violence breaks out as the survey teams explore a planet transformed out of all recognition...
