Augmented: A YA Cosmic Thriller
Augmented - The Chronicles of Calamity Episode One
Genetically augmenting their children to be better suited for life on other worlds was all the rage until the government started hunting them down.
While on their way home from the academy on Station Four, Shawna, Riley, and Tanner find themselves the sole survivors of a deadly terrorist attack. When they wake up three and a half years later, they find that the entire crew and all other passengers are dead, the government has been taken over by fascists, and their only hope for survival is the very thing the terrorists were looking for in the first place.
About The Chronicles of Calamity
The Chronicles of Calamity begins in the year 2,620 as humanity prepares to take its first steps outside of the confines of our solar system. We have populated the night sky with stations and colonies and have enjoyed over a hundred and fifty years of peace. Like countless others of their generation, our main characters have been genetically augmented to ensure that when colonization of other systems begins in just a few years, our species will be equipped to handle the challenges we face. Unfortunately, not everyone agrees that humanity’s ultimate purpose is to seed new worlds.
Thrust into a new dark age and a holy war they hardly understand, our heroes must survive in an unforgiving solar system where their very existence is considered blasphemous.
With veiled forces moving humanity ever further into the unknown, Shawna, Riley, and Tanner must decide whether they are going to hide out the war or do what it takes to end it before it’s too late.
The first book in the series, Calamity Wakes, is currently being released as three episodes (large novellas) available only on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited. Recommended for fans of Glynn Stewart, Craig Alanson, and James S. A. Corey.
