A World Within Reach

We called them lurkers, the aliens came to earth. After the first sightings of them were confirmed in the earth's vicinity, governments confirmed their existence to the public. Pooling their resources, the United Nations took the initiative and attempted to make contact. Months went by without any indication our alien observers intended to reply. So, we went about our daily lives as normal, merely waiting for something to happen. The day they decided to make a move marked the start of the apocalypse. Civilisation as we knew it coming to an end and from the ashes, humanity rebelled. Unexplained lurker phenomena metamorphosed human biology, giving birth to a new superpowered group of humans called 'the fractured' 20 years after the chain of events that caused humanities downfall, alien technologies, creatures as well as lurkers themselves pose unprecedented challenges for the surviving population. 'A World Within Reach' tells the story of Peran, a fractured human who woke up 20 years after the day the lurkers attacked to find he was now humanities best hope to turn the tide of human fortune.
