The world is in the age of Peace. It is a society of order, uniformity, and equality. Everyone is made to be the same, upstanding citizen that will fulfill their given duty to the society. They are to follow the rules, marry who they've chosen/who chose them at seventeen, and allow the Watchmen to "protect them". It is, as the President says, Utopia. Crissy Javis doesn't believe a single bit of that nonsense. Crissy Javis is a normal, seventeen year old citizen. But Crissy Javis is different in one way... She dreams. Crissy lives on Earth by day, but finds herself in a made up, dream world called Lidania, every night. There she hangs out with her best friend--Jerimiah, Lover--James, and honorary sister--Liliana. But what happens when that dream world isn't just a dream after all? Crissy must leave her home and her mother to travel to the place of her dreams where a great evil is is rising. It is her duty to save Liliana, James, and everything she loves before it is too late. Crissy is DIFFERENT.

BOOK 1
From the moment the Declaration of Independence was signed, there were people who didn't agree with it. This included a small group of politicians who called themselves Chaos. They vowed to someday take over America and start over with a utopian society where everyone would have a common goal. They slowly infiltrated the government, filling it with corrupt leaders. They planned a mass attack on the U.S. on July 2, 2076, Americas 300th birthday. On that day, they assassinated the president and began bombing in New York.
Unfortunately, Chaos only had about 200 soldiers so they came up with a technology to implant a chip in the nervous system and essentially control them. So basically, each solider could make a civilian a soldier and the civilian would be forced to fight and make soldiers of their own. The whole operation snowballed and everything went according to plan.
Unlike in other stories, there is no hope and the only way to survive is though the CPO (citizen protection organization), created by Benjamin Franklin. It's a system of secret subway tunnels, used to evacuate civilians to safely.
Out story begins on July 2, 2076 when the first bomb drops. Madalyn Grace and her friends are caught in this apocalypse and must find away to leave.
