The year is 2077 and the world stands on the brink of total war. Rampant overpopulation and overconsumption of resources have caused humanity to wipe out every other land animal to desperately feed an ever-growing, unsustainable growth. The last resources that remain lie in the shelled deserts of Siberia, where major countries send their war machines en masse. This includes America, required to run a wartime draft to amass the numbers proposed by other superpowers. In the wake of a technological boom, where virtual reality controls the minds of the civilian populace, it becomes clear that America is not prepared. Of the thousands of young men and women being churned out like cannon fodder, Ridley Doerrman is beginning to see the fallacies behind the country he fights for. 

State-sanctioned junkyards span for miles, cardboard cities plague the land overnight, all the green on the Earth dies and a mutated ecosystem starts to thrive in the wake. This is the beginning of the end - nuclear bombardment a stone's throw away. Media spreads propaganda that this bloody "Resource War" will be the last war to consume humanity. Some seek to save it, others believe it needs to be rinsed. Across the East Coast of America, Human Observatories abduct junkies and sew their mouths shut, placing them in captivity for the wealthy to see.

A particular man is taken and thrown into exhibition, igniting a whirlwind of chaos for those who wish to breach him for the bounty on his head and the worth in his words.  

This novel is essentially a Game of Thrones style epic taking place at the beginning of the end. Awesome, right?All Rights Reserved

Mirror Sky. Part 1 - Blissful Nemesis by pwkos171

The future is predetermined. It can't be changed. But who casts the future in stone? It's you, me, and every one of us. The iron grip of our fate doesn't come from gods or physics but from us. You are oppressed by your future self to walk the one and only road. Knowing the future changes nothing - this knowledge has already been written into your fate. Time travel is meaningless for the same reason - all your meddlings had also become a part of your fate before you even embarked on your journey through time. Could this strange duality of free will and fate be challenged? If so, what would it take? How far are you willing to go to change your dark fate? Is the risk of erasing the universe from existence worth your brighter future?

Avengers of The Apocalypse by PotMAD

In a desperate attempt to stop a multidimensional catastrophe, the Avengers find themselves hurled into an unfamiliar world-a post-apocalyptic wasteland teeming with flesh-hungry zombies and shattered dreams. Here, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction, and the rules of heroism no longer apply. Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow, Hulk, and the rest of the team must navigate a landscape where every choice is a matter of life and death, alliances are fragile, and trust is a rare commodity. As they uncover the secrets of this broken reality, they'll face challenges that test their powers, their resolve, and their very humanity. Can Earth's greatest heroes rise to the occasion when faced with humanity's darkest hour? Or will they succumb to a nightmare where the only way to survive is to embrace the savage fight for existence? *Prepare for a gripping tale of resilience, sacrifice, and heroism in a world where even the Avengers must learn what it truly means to be human.*

But when they are fifteen, all members of this society have a chance to find their true love. They go on a journey and endure the many horrific forces of nature to find them.

Code Name X by unseenobservers

It's 2500 and the world is still suffering from the disastrous effects of World War 3. Plague, the result of the recent biochemical war, sweeps across Eurasia, leaving millions dead in its wake. Even the best scientists in Europe are powerless against it. The main reason for the general misery is this. Europe is now under the tyrannical rule of the Democratic Republic of America, and this has wreaked havoc upon the streets of Europe. Poverty, starvation and disease now fill even the greatest of Europe's cities. They hold a cautious peace treaty with the Oceanic Union, but of course, this doesn't come without a price. However, for Europe at least, there is a glimmer of hope. For the growing resistance has finally managed to recruit the greatest criminals of the 26th century to spark the beginning of the greatest rebellion in human history. Unfortunately for them, the 'greatest criminals of the 26th century' are teenagers. And even in this day and age, teenagers still bring their insecurities and petty rivalries with them, wherever they go. So, this is the question: can this team of misfit criminals bring a golden age of peace? Or will they set the world on fire for the fourth time?

Northern Exposure: The divided by LukenDuPont

Without warning it began! The inevitable, I think it's fair to assume this book is not in my possession. This means I'm most likely dead. Most nights I wrestle the reason I have chosen to explain what happened, the things we did to each other, things no human being should witness. I Wright this simply to enlighten your poor soul and give you more of a chance than I had. A chance to survive what is most likely the brink of human extinction. Times are harder now and as the days go by we are less of our former selves. We have become husks floating around in a lost, desolate world. I look at this place and it still seems so alien to me, as the days roll into the nights I'm still unsure of how we got to this point. If you are reading this, you too are probably North and very much aware of what has happened to our beloved city. I feel a responsibility to inform you that you will most likely share the same fate as I have. I understand you may be wondering what's worse than death, trust me in this place death seems like a paradise compared. I do not know why I still feel so obligated to write this. To be honest most nights I think its just an escape from the madness, like a natural sedative it's the only way I can fall asleep in this hell. However I do need to clear my conscious and pay dividend for my demons. I need you to know what happened to me; I need you to know what we have become and what we are capable of. I need you to know why we have chosen to kill each other, why the smell of human flesh lingers in the air like slow roast pork on a Sunday afternoon. Why bodies litter our streets. Why things that seemed to be so impossible happen in front of our very own eyes. Why conformity i this place is the unreal ideas people live their lives by and why I was included into this group of youthful abominations. All of this might be irrelevant compared to what I am about to tell you.

Dystopia Rising by GravityWillFall01

The world ended long ago, riddled with plague and zombies and destruction. But humanity survived, and humanity evolved. The Infection that helped bring the world to its knees also changed humans in ways to help them keep living in this now broken world ready to be rebuilt. Seven lineages with three strains each, and each have their own unique set of traits that help us survive. But that's not what this story is about-at least, not really. This story isn't about how a hero will rise and bring the world back to what it was Pre-Fall. This story is about me, an ordinary Remanat living life through the world day to day as a mercenary. A beginner mercenary as everyone likes to remind me. The others in my group have been calling me 'Rookie' since I joined them three months ago. I'm beginning to wonder if they actually know my name. We have been hired to help the New Reach Caravan travel across the wastelands to Philly Del Phia, and this is the perfect opportunity to show them that I'm not just a dumb Rookie. I'm actually quite good at my job. I just happen to get distracted by one certain Eight-Ball, but it's not my fault he's good-looking, and charming, and funny... Anyway, all I have to do is help my group get the caravan to Del Phia. Should be an easy enough job. Just avoid the zoms and keep clear of the Raiders, and we should be fine... Right? Disclaimer: I do not own Zombies, Run! or its characters, nor do I own Dystopia Rising LARP. This is just my Rookie's reaction to the Dystopia Rising New Adventure in the Zombies, Run! App.

无限进化 by FUCKchen

Centuries ago, the T-virus, a biological agent of unparalleled lethality, unlocked the door to humanity's destruction and sounded the horn of the apocalypse. With the gates of doom thrown wide open, Earth became a battleground for countless powerful and cunning creatures, pushing human civilization to the brink of extinction. The Fifth Epoch, known as the "Age of Human Civilization," came to a tragic end, giving way to the Sixth Epoch-the "Age of Chaos." This is a story born from that chaos. In a world where survival is a daily struggle, follow the journey of a resilient survivor as they navigate a shattered Earth teeming with terrifying beasts and ruthless factions. Amidst the ruins of the old world, the protagonist must uncover the truth behind the T-virus, confront the horrors it unleashed, and fight to reclaim a future-or risk losing everything to the relentless tide of chaos. Will civilization rise from the ashes, or will the Age of Chaos consume all?

War for Change by Colby101001

Humanity used to thrive in 2035 until a group of scientists started playing God. This science team was recruited by all the top world leaders and they've begun receiving demands for a super soldier, and they began experimenting on animals, which gave the scientists expected results, but like all experiments, there was a chance for failure. The humanoid animals, or Anthros for short, started getting smarter, faster than the scientists expected, or reacted. The Anthros broke free and took what was left of the 'White Mist,' the substance that created them, and put it into the planet's air supply. Long story short, most animals worldwide have begun transforming into Anthros, and started devastating the world's militaries before attacking cities. Humanity is now facing extinction with their last millions while the Anthro civilization is over 2 Billion strong and counting. The war between Humans and Anthros has lasted for over 50 years, and while humans may be disadvantaged against the Anthros higher strength, speed, endurance, and intelligence, they still beat Anthros with improvisation, adaptability, and tactics. The war has destroyed all four Eastern continents, leaving behind a creature both Humans and Anthros call Reapers, who are husks of the person they were. The Anthros have near complete control over North America and are fighting Humanity in South America, but the main human bases are located on the Hawaiian islands. With death seeming inevitable for human kind, can nothing stop humanity from extinction? Zero has just graduated from high school with good marks and a scholarship. His family wanted to celebrate, so they said they would wait for him. He went back to grab his wallet, and as he turned around, he started falling in a wormhole, closing afterwards. (This is my first story, and the art seen does not belong to me.) (Book 1 of War series)

O Negative by BCMetcalf

Content Warning-This story is meant for mature audiences. It features adult language, references, situations, sexual content, graphic violence, and gore. Fantasy, horror, and science fiction are my favorite genres to read. They are also my favorite to write. I've enjoyed writing since I won my first writing contest in the fourth grade. That was over twenty-five years ago and I haven't shared a sinlge word of it. Imposter syndrome is a bitch! Well, I finally managed to pull the trigger. Here is "O Negative". It's a mix of all of my favorite genres. I've mixed a fantasy, based on present-day Earth, with plenty of graphic horror and wrapped it all up within a world driven by the technological advancements that only can be obtained from millions of years of civilation. A small group of strangers find themselves surviving in a decimated world. It's bad enough to be stranded in a no-name town, but things become surreal when you realize the vast majority of humanity has died...it becomes terrifying when you realize you aren't that lucky to be alive. "Survivor's Guilt" isn't a thing when you find yourself the sole food source for an entire group of beings that no longer need to hide in the shadows. Man is no longer at the top of the food chain...they are now the cattle.
