Caged Life Volume I: Introductions

Originally a weekly online serial, Caged Life appears here for the first time in a collected edition.

Volume 1: Introductions, explores the city of Cahj and its inhabitants, as experienced by Gio Van. A former lab assistant living on the fringes of society, Gio deals with overzealous tabloid reporters, movie stars, and the genetically engineered workers called elves.

The elves are the basis of Cahj's wealth and power - a workforce created in a lab and sold the world over. Representing a new industrial revolution, the elves do the jobs no human would want. At the top of this science-fueled labour force are the High Elves, the genetic templates from which all elves are created. And it is into their games Gio finds himself drawn.
