Ian is a man living a nightmare.
Mankind has been overthrown; but the rebellion came from within. In the future, artificial clones are created to fulfill specialized roles in society efficiently and well, creating perfect order. The programme has not been fully implemented yet, however, and most of the remaining normal, non-clone humans are treated as pariahs and allocated the lowest jobs and status in society. The clones are in charge now, and Ian is living in their world.
Then things change forever.
Ian's brother is murdered - and Ian finds a clone fleeing the scene of the crime. Denied help by the clone police force, who refuse to consider the possibility of a clone's guilt, Ian resolves to hunt down the culprit himself - Even if he has to go through every single clone to do so.
However, as Ian is brought in for questioning, his clone interrogator resolves to investigate the truth of the matter - and his world is turned upside down. Only one thing is certain - In Their World, nothing is as it seems.

AVIAN | ✓
An out-of-solar system colony project gone wrong meant Jessie English was stuck doing most of the work assigned to the deceased science crew. Sticking to his morals meant being left for dead by those in charge. By chance, he meets Luc, a member of the planet's sentient avian humanoid species. All Jessie wants to do now is live out the rest of his days with him, and hopefully get past the language barrier that prevents him from communicating the feelings of love he hopes are mutual. Unfortunately, sightings of a human and an alien together are more interesting to the colony's higher-ups than one would hope. *** Born the runt of his clutch, Luc had never held anyone so small, so soft... He was all Jessie had, so he would do everything to shield him from others of his kind, and by extension, protect the whole human race. -------- AVIAN has been COMPLETED on the writer's end (30 chapters + five bonus stories) and is on a bi-weekly upload schedule.

Fusion Online
(Beta story) In the distant future, scientist have created a way to form separate artificial reality dimensions to test many experiments that they could not do in real life. As ground breaking as this technology is, multiple video game companies quickly figure out that they can program games using this form of technology. Ian Stalk, an alpha designer and beta tester, manages to get the game Fusion, the first of the artificial series games. This game blends two great franchise, the mind blowing cinematic Star Wars series, and the hardcore, well developed Microsoft Xbox exclusive Halo trilogy, to create the well balanced game Fusion. This AR-MMO-RPG-FPS lets players explore the new universe. Players can travel from the rainy planet of Kamino, to the glassed planet of Reach. Or perhaps a trip to the infamous desert world of Tatooine to the large home world of the Sangheli. Each player can chose their destiny But luck is not on their side. Quickly realizing that the game was rigged by one of the programmers, Ian Stalk, or better known as Caliber, must find a way to eliminate the Sinister Six. This team is formed by the Sith Lords Emperor Palpatine, Count Dooku and his apprentice Asaj Ventress, the cunning General Grievous, forerunner protector Warden Eternal, and the fallen Chosen One, Darth Vader. Every day, the Spartan Republic, alongside other large alliances or Spartan companies, jump feet first into the line of fire to free themselves from this horrid genocide. Inspired by SAO, Log Horizon, Star Wars Battlefront I, II, and EA, Halo 5 Guardians, and, of course, ME WANTING TO BE IN A VIDEO GAME!!Complete

The War In His Mind
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!

While Henry is done with being in the spotlight, he's always knew that to love Alex, he'll have to continue to be. But as the wedding approaches, it eats at him as he realizes Alex and him want different lives. Alex, meanwhile is too wrapped up in politics to see how much Henry is suffering, and in his attempt to balance being everything to everyone, turns to vice. Will this be the thing that tears them apart? How can they both be happy if one of them has to sacrifice the life they have always desired? Follows book cannon (but not the bonus chapter exactly) and takes place 6 years after the end of the book. Chapters will alternate being told from Henry and Alex's POVs.

Obsolution ✔
Ty, a shift manager with an alcoholic wife, creates a female replicant in a dystopia veering toward full mechanization. For Ty, the surreal drudgery of working in a retail environment is interrupted when robotic interfaces are installed at his job. Any protest of the machines will prompt Prominents to place him in a re-education program, and that's if he's lucky. In an effort to distract himself from a failing marriage, Ty becomes obsessed with the idea of a printing a live composite. In a botched job, he ends up printing a female version of himself. Thanks to his clone, Samantha (or Sam as she insists being called), Ty and his family are in danger of being jailed by Prominent forces. A dangerous life of hiding in plain sight is nearly impossible to pull off, especially when Sam strays from simple Prominent edicts by dating a woman. Ty's reality begins to unravel and he is forced to new truths, all while coming to terms with the full-force of mechanization and violence that surrounds him.

Fox Trott (First Book of the Shadow Series)
So here we are. You are here, looking for a fictional dystopia series that could give you chills, make your imagination run wild, or even just give you something to do for a vacation. If you are looking for a beautiful fictional world, I'm sorry to say you should stop reading here. This is not a story where we have flying cars and the world is running oh so smoothly. This is a story of people destroying beauty because they don't see it. This is a book of love turned to hurt, pain turned to power, insanity turned to freedom. We don't have dancing fairies. We have cannibalistic monsters that wish for death. We have a monster that will never receive what he is looking for. We have a little girl driven into madness. So if you do not have the strength of heart to see the true disparity of our world, turn back now. If not, welcome to the Shadows.Complete
