Melanated and A World Without War: Two Speculative Futures

By Lance S. Gaynor

What happens when biology becomes currency? Who are we without war?

Two worlds. Uncomfortably close to our own.

In Melanated, the sun is destroying the ozone layer - and melanin has become the most valuable thing on Earth. Three African women are caught in a web of wealth, desperation, and exploitation that stretches across two continents. Some choices are made freely. Others are made for you.

In A World Without War, elite soldier Marcus Cole wakes up in a parallel Earth that hasn't seen a war in five hundred years. No enemies. No mission. No purpose. And a doctor offering him something more dangerous than any weapon - the chance to forget the woman he loves.

Lance S. Gaynor - debut author of speculative fiction that asks the questions no one wants to answer.
