Erased -- Anders Edwards, Paperback

Erased is a gripping, near-future, dystopian young adult novel, which combines adventure, coming-of-age discovery, and an endearing first-love romance. Perfect for fans of The Circle by Dave Eggers, Ready Player One by Ernest Cline, and Scythe by Neal Shusterman.

Seph lives in a world meticulously engineered for efficiency. Every decision is optimized by the nano chip embedded beneath his skin. The chip promises safety, health, and order, but Seph has always felt like an outlier, and as graduation approaches, he faces a choice: embrace the path set before him or question the system that governs every aspect of life.

When Seph lands his dream job, the truth behind NexTech, the corporation controlling the nano chips, begins to unravel. Alongside Emma, a trusted ally, and James, the conflicted inventor of the technology itself, Seph discovers a plan that is far darker than he could have imagined, one that threatens to strip away the last remnants of free will.

But uncovering the truth is only the beginning. In a society where every movement is tracked, every emotion analyzed, and every relationship predetermined, rebellion isn't just dangerous, it's nearly impossible.

Erased is a captivating exploration of choice, control, and the price of a perfect society. In a world where freedom is a memory, Seph must decide: will he play by the rules, or risk everything to rewrite them?
