Acadia - by Sterling Nixon (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Two hundred years ago, the Roaches swept across the Earth, annihilating everything in their path. Humanity's remnants retreated behind the walls of Acadia-a militarized city where every citizen's worth is dictated by a ruthless merit score. Earn enough points and you live in safety. Fall short, and you're Rifted-cast into the depths beyond salvation.

Jessica teeters on the edge of that fate, forced into the Mahghetto-an unforgiving gauntlet where failure means death. Cojax is a young soldier desperate to prove himself in a society that sees him as expendable. When they uncover a long-guarded secret, the two are thrust into a conspiracy that could shatter Acadia's rigid order and ignite a war it cannot win.

In Acadia, loyalty is rewarded... until the day it kills you.
