Publisher's summary
In the not-too-distant future, freedom and choices cause the downfall of humanity. Equality is the prime directive of EarthPeace. One gender. One race. Your career, your friends, your clothes, your activities are all selected by the Happiness Bureau. The Abundance Bureau issues an equal number of credits to everyone, and all purchases are made via the Global Identification Chip in your right hand. Satellites and cameras track everything you do and say.
Family, parenthood, religion are all relics of the past and have no place in the new world order of EarthPeace. Genetic alteration has created a society of genderless clones. By 2080, humans are dying off due to genetic degradation. Jade and two other scientists set out to restart the human race using zygotes from the Vault of Origination. Not everyone likes the idea of creating gendered infants for restocking the vault. Threats to the babies’ lives eventually lead the scientists out of EarthPeace to live among a remnant of Christians who refused to get the Global Identification Chips and have been living off grid for 60 years.
You’ve read or seen 1984, Atlas Shrugged, Mad Max and Logan’s Run, but you’ve never read anything like Z. Z shows you the remarkable world these heroes escape to. Along with Jade, you’ll live among a people preparing for Christ’s imminent Second Coming. You’ll experience what it’s like to witness His arrival from the perspective of those who are “caught up to meet Him in the air.”
Inspired by modern events, the Book of Revelation and other Biblical and prophetic writings, Z will take you on a riveting journey to a wonderfully, glorious happy ending that will give a whole new meaning to dystopian novels. If you’ve been worrying about the future because of gender identity, the Green New Deal, ANTIFA, identity politics, COVID-19 pandemic quarantines, riots and looting, this book will give you hope – for your children, grandchildren and the world.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned.
