Synopsis

Several years after major nuclear wars, followed by the rise of robotic armies, have caused the world to become post-apocalyptic. The year is 2276 and Earth is now full of anarchy, corruption, and death. The rich are richer, the poor are poorer and government’s ever crueler.

A lone woman carrying a large backpack, in the shape of a coffin, comes to a small post-apocalyptic town in the middle of southern Utah, whose only existence rides on the Colorado River. There is a dam which provides water, food, and transportation to the several thousand people who have been congregating in the slowly re-growing town. Many had once hoped to fix the hydroelectric station to rebuild their lives, but corruption brews.

This lone woman stops at one of the bars in town and gets into a fight with some local gangsters who were mistreating a young girl outside. Causing her to become at odds with the gangs of the town. This is the instance that first roots our heroine, Lisa Cunningham, to save this town and prompted her to start growing her Black Market Empire here!

However, gangs are the least of her worries! Robotic army’s, rebellion militia, mutated monsters, mad cults, competing companies, government entities and lustful men keep ogling over her all the time!! Not to mention the strange events that slowly begin to unfold around the little girl, Hanna, that Lisa had saved.

Yet there is more to Lisa than gorgeous looks alone. She has come back from over 200 years ago and is learning more about what has happened while she was in cryogenic sleep. A sleep that she volunteered to do for the US military due to her cyborg body! There is so much that has changed on Earth, much of which is far from what she once remembered and now she has even more to learn. How will she be able to survive in a hostile apocalyptic world and reach her own frivolous goals to obtain great riches?

    From what I have read so far, I can tell that I will love this book. The characters all feel real and natural. While I don't know much about the entire state of the world, I am very interested to know it and how the main character will tie into it. I have been loving who the story is being written and like how the perspective changes between multiple characters. The book has been great and I hope to continue reading.

    Just a few reflections after reading a few chapters; the story is interesting, your characters also, and first of all it's so nice to read a story that you don't have to put so much effort to understand what the author wanted to say. You don't struggle with the language so it's your advantage over the rest (non-English speakers), use it well! All the best!

    I absolutely love this, regardless of the fact that the author is a man, he saw it fit to place so much strength and prominence in the main character, a lady. I absolutely love this, your character development, your use of words, I love it all. kudos😁

    For starters, I really liked your description and some of the words you’ve used there. The metaphors are really apt for where you’ve used them and it provides a great, detailed image of your imagination. One thing that most isekai or unrealistic plots face is that most people do not stick through till the end until they are rewarded with a good story lead / hook not to before nor too early into the story. I think you have found your sweet spot there. The dialogues of the characters are very well delivered with appropriate descriptions and actions. You haven’t given us too much nor too less and that is one great thing in your story. The action scene is depicted in a great way and is very descriptive while maintaining that sweet spot of yours. One thing I would advice is to not name the chapters as chapter # because that would appear repeated and wouldn’t look appealing to the eyes. Only thing you have to do is probably take the chapter # out and just keep the name of the chapter like for example (Chapter 1: Arrival). Otherwise, it’s a great story that you have written.

    whoa😮😯! i just started but I am in love with the story already. one of the reasons is I always wanted my mc to get into the action very early on but it couldn’t work. This story already teased to me, what could have been. well done author!

    Wow! This book feels so realistic, even with the sci-fi going on all around it. I have read most parts of this story and honestly, I'm completely hooked! I love how you have a nice way with words and how you describe the characters, their environment and everything else with well-thought attention. I'm definitely reading more of this. Good job author.

    Great Story as well as writing style with almost no visible grammatical or pronouncing mistakes. The story is well written with good background and about the female lead, she has a cool attitude and well-described personality moreover as a female lead written by a male author, he did a good job presenting the character.

I love the character of the MC she was so cool and I kind of admired her character. author,really? You made me inspired , how this girl deals with her life. Good job author.🥰🥰

    I don't know if it's because I like really strong female protagonists, but ever since the first chapter, I was so hooked to the badass female main character that i almost forgot about the time replaying the scenes in my head while I read every moment. The characters are great, story telling is amazing that I wish I could do the same. And overall, very very good read!!
