DESTINY

In a futuristic society, The Bennu, a resistance group headed by Elijah Malick, try to defeat the leadership that has taken over the newly established global government. The story takes place after World War III in which the world is combating extreme weather, overpopulation, and hunger. To remedy the societal problems, the government has set up a horrifying experiment in technological advancement in which Jacy has been selected to participate. In times of adversity, Jacy and others must learn the importance of loyalty, courage, and sacrifice in obtaining dreams for a better world.

This is a haunting novel of a world that could evolve as new eras emerge and established political order is transformed.

“Jacy and Amelia have a date with destiny.

When drafted to serve at the world government’s secret commune in Michigan, their young lives take quite different turns. After meeting while journeying to the site, Jacy out of a sense of duty goes to the dark commune, but Amelia flees into the night and joins the underground Bennu movement.

Years later, their destinies meet, for what they’ve done since the fateful night they met will decide the world’s fate. Will it live under the crushing bootheel of General Balthasar’s genetically modified Terrarians or find freedom that so many of the Bennu movement have died for?”
