Atropos John Japuntich

"A 5-star read great for fans of science fiction, mystery, and anyone who likes the two genres mixed"-Charli Gamble, Keep on Booking.

The world rejoiced when it was discovered that the virus altered the human genome and virtually ended death by natural causes. That joy soon turned to horror when it was realized it also caused universal infertility. The aftermath of this pandemic left the world in shambles, humanity was centuries recovering. The plague was so transformative that it became known as simply the Event.

John Fitzpatrick is consumed with exposing what, or who is behind the Event. As John looks for answers, he must navigate a new world created by the Event, decades of world-wide depression and war, messianic cult leaders, and a meddlesome AI.

Civilization survives the Event depression by uniting under one government. The Federation of Nations is led by a charismatic economist who restructures the world economy to focus on one goal: interstellar colonization. Centuries later, John's obsession with the cause of the Event leads him to discover the forces behind the Event may threaten the launch of humanity's first interstellar ship, Atropos, and plunge the world back into darkness.
