User:Octane/novel draft

The novel Faultline has been moved here, because of negative experiences with the Novellas staff.

The novel will explore the effect of a Mexican immigrant uprising in response to increased discrimination and tougher border controls in the United States, which will eventually transmutate into a broader militant anti-discrimination group, composed of Arabs, African Americans, and Mexicans. The slights will range from real to imagined.

I am toying with the idea of incorporating recoms into the novel. There are only a few groups who might have the technology to create such beings:


 * The United States
 * Japan
 * The People's Republic of China

They may have originally been created for military use or for research purposes, either by a rogue group a la The Island of Dr. Moreau, or sponsored by the federal government in secret.
