Description
In a world where happiness is measured, controlled, and rewarded-what happens when one man begins to question the perfect system? Arrick Bell is a model citizen of Earth 2, where every smile is logged, every toast shade is optimized, and every emotion is tracked by algorithm. With his happiness score soaring, Arrick is finally selected for the greatest honour: to travel through time on behalf of TimeGenics. But as he prepares for his glorious journey, a tearful plea from his beloved wife cracks the illusion of perfection. What secrets lie beyond the polished steel and perfect smiles of Hopeville? And why has no one ever come back? COMBUSTION is a chilling dystopian tale that explores the cost of compliance, the illusion of utopia, and the burning truth hidden behind programmed bliss.
