Books with title The Plague

You, my friend, have been hacked.It begins with the name JONAS W. on the side of a cardboard coffin—right before the funeral procession blows up. Then it’s the whisper in the back of Micah’s head: Your father betrayed his country. You can’t always trust your own brain. Not when you have one of the mayor’s mandatory chips in your skull. Micah knows that the chip developed by TFC (the corporation that runs the Therapeutic Forgetting Clinics) does more than just erase unpleasant memories—it implants new ones. The MemeCast warns citizens to “fight the hack.”Micah and his friends have each lost something—a parent, a relationship, a home, maybe even their own identities as they remembered them to be. But, together, they can make sure some things are never forgotten.Election Day is coming, and Mayor Mignon is set to be elected to Congress. It’s time to build a new electronic frontier, one that’s not controlled by the mayor and his cronies. It’s time to get out the vote and shake up the system. It’s time to finally say enough.

It all started when an excess of radioactive material had leaked into the earth's core, causing the emergence of new plants, chemicals, and resources across the planet. Since then, the world has been plagued with acidic hurricanes, fireball showers, blood-burning bacteria, and a multitude of other bizarre environmental disasters and diseases.To cope with the dangers of the new environment and emerging diseases, a mysterious scientist named Dr. Z genetically engineered surviving animals into powerful beasts known as genopets. These beasts were created with the powers to regulate the environmental changes and cure some of the deadliest diseases. Political turmoil over Dr. Z's creation of the genopets eventually caused the remaining human survivors to be segregated into clans based on race, with each clan responsible for training a specific species of genopets to regulate the conditions across specific parts of the world.But when the mysterious scientist suddenly loses contact with all the clan leaders and genopets, both the social structure and natural environment of the world fall apart.
