Skin (Fountain Chronicles Book 1)

The true history and future of Earth has already been forgotten. Life on the Flatts, an enormous space station, is as good as any, if you like cold metallic confinement: though, most don’t. Hampton Sires and Aeda Smith seek escape through the Expansion and Enlightenment Program, a highly secretive and coveted program rumored to provide everlasting life and the beauties of a new world to call home. Hampton and Aeda, highest scoring volunteers for the program, discover just how enlightening life can be. Coated in new genetically engineered Skins for protection against the new but toxic environment of the Tao Tunnel, they cross a threshold into a hellish jungle in order to drink from the legendary fons iuventutis, or fountain of youth. With opposing forces at every turn, they fight for their lives and for love, with the intent to destroy the very program they volunteered for.
