The State of Nirvana

Awakenings

Nirvana, our perfect future. The idyllic State where government maintains the ultimate safety by control over its Citizens, dictating what food they eat, who they partner with, and what’s acceptable thought. Orderly yet malicious, Nirvana’s justice system uses criminals in gladiator-like games for its Citizens’ entertainment. Games that both kill and incentivize the torture of innocent men. It’s a ruthlessly efficient society that Kip chafes under...

Frustrated and bored with his life of routine, Kip dutifully follows the rules until the day he’s positioned to cross a line he morally can’t. Thrust into a murderous scheme for daring to challenge the edicts of Nirvana’s Citizen Leaders, Kip is forced into an action-packed escape to stay alive that leads to his awakening of what freedom truly is and what he’s willing to sacrifice to have it. If he fails, his life will be forfeited. But if he succeeds in kindling the masses, the State of Nirvana will fall.
