Financial Fallout — a Sci-Financial series featuring dark dystopias and cypherpunk heroes.
You were never prepared.
Currencies debased.
Privacy under attack.
Cash goes underground.
The weight of debt bears down.
Welcome to a monetary system rigged against us — honest citizens chasing a buck.
We have no choice but to comply.
We know that every day, we must work harder for a meager return.
We are trapped, running faster and faster until we reach our breaking point.
And then, when we have nothing left to lose, we stop. We turn on those who rigged the race.
We stand and fight.
There are infinite scenarios for economic catastrophe.
These 21 stories expose just some of the dystopian futures triggered by financial fallout.
They showcase unfortunate-but-brilliant characters who refuse to accept defeat — characters who stand and fight.
Great changes are coming to our monetary system, and we will all be part of the revolution.
These stories will show you how it might go down.
