Sord in Prosperity [#postapocalyptic #dystopian #longevityfiction] - A Genetic Engineering Science Fiction Novel by Blade Cort; Book 6 of 7 in the Predictable Paths series

______________________

Sord is a typical teenager who attends high school in Prosperity, the domed nation-state arising from the ashes of a second Great Debacle that left the species clinging to a tenuous edge. Prosperity is humanity's last gasp at establishing a long-lasting society based on principles of compassion and kindness.
Although he is sheltered from the harsh conditions and violent encampments beyond the safety of the dome, Sord yearns for something more. He wants to experience the world as previous generations did before the Debacles destroyed everything they knew.
To help him learn about those times, his mother gives him a diary written by one of their ancestors. At first, Sord finds it tedious and boring, but he soon recognizes key parallels and senses there is more to the diary than meets the eye. 
Trouble seems to trail the poor boy, however, just like it did his ancestor. After a near-death incident, he finds an ebullient new girlfriend, and together they embark on an edgy adventure to uncover the truth behind his father's mysterious disappearance. Will their quest lead them into even greater danger?
