Unchipped Kaarina

Welcome to a future where a single chip can give you everything... except for freedom.

In the two years since the Great Affliction, the Happiness-Program has transformed a civilization on the brink of extinction into an organized, beautiful, and happy society. However, for the Unchipped--those whose chips can't connect to the system--living a comfortable life remains out of reach.

Kaarina, one of the Unchipped, would give anything to live inside the walls of the city again. Haunted by her mother's suicide and alone except for Bill, another Unchipped thousands of miles away whose thoughts are inexplicably linked to hers, Kaarina fights for survival, defending her beloved animals from the other savage Unchipped. But when her horse's illness drives her into the city to find medicine, she becomes acquainted with a Chipped man who makes her question everything.

Now a new fix to the system promises her the chance to finally be normal... just as she begins to learn life in the perfectly augmented reality may not be all that she imagined.

About the Author
Devere, Taya: - Taya is a Finnish-American author, writing contemporary fiction and dystopian sci-fi. After living, working, and traveling in America for seven years, she now lives in Finland with her partner-in-everything Chris, their dog Seamus, three bunny-boys (Ronin, Baby, and Loki), and her horse of a lifetime, Arabella. Taya's restless feet have taken her all over Finland, the United Kingdom, and North America. Her new dystopian series Unchipped is inspired by the real-life characters she's met on her travels. Cultural differences, social issues, and behavioral psychology have always fascinated Taya. Unchipped tells the story of the world in 2085, when technology has replaced people's need to truly connect with one another. The series describes what it feels like to be an outsider and takes an in-depth look at the unlikely friendships between perfectly imperfect people across the globe. Justice. Kindness. The fact that all beings on this planet are equally important. Taya's world revolves around these values every day, and they play a substantial role in her storytelling as well. Taya's writing is inspired by authors such as Margaret Atwood, Peter Heller, Hugh Howey, and C.M. Martens.
