Description

In a dark future, something ancient and immeasurably powerful walks the mutant wastelands...Kensuke is a lowlyashigarufootsoldier in the Tachiyama Clan, one of the few remaining human settlements in a dark, post-apocalyptic future. Thousands of years in the past, deadly nanomutagens were released across Asia, killing hundreds of millions and transforming billions more over subsequent generations. Those who remained immune soon moved into enclaves. In Japan, the feudal system revolving around the samurai class was revived, and resource wars became common.In the present, the Tachiyama Clan is under attack by the brutal Sasagawa Clan whose goal is nothing less than the total subjegation of all remaining human enclaves. Both sides take to the battlefield with human soldiers, robots, and the powerful Augmented Samurai -- cyborg warriors who do battle by plugging into six-meter-tall mecha.Hard sci-fi samuraipunk action!Posting schedule will be slightly faster in the early chapters as I have most of them ready to go. Later chapters will take more time. That said, the outline is written and finished. I imagine the full work will top 50,000 words.Please note: The first 9000 words of this work were posted recently on Patreon (free) as part of a 30-day writing challenge. The work that will appear here will be complete and may differ in editing and chapter order.

    The recent disaster of a game that was Cyberpunk 2077 left me wanting to read more Sci-Fi and Cyberpunk stories, and this one definitely caught my eye. The idea of samurai existing in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk world is super appealing, and Made in DNA has written something special here. The story is just starting, so I'm waiting for things to really kick off, but I'd definitely suggest this to those looking for something new and interesting to read!
