Oxygénia
In the year 3069, space farer Peter MacGulliver who is used to a happy life on a healthy and clean planet Earth strands on a planet which environment is completely ruined by heavy pollution, where there isn't even any oxygen left in the atmosphere and where billions of humanoid beings have to live with gas masks and rationed oxygen for their whole life – Oxygénia. On his long way to escape this living nightmare, Peter has to get to know all three major layers of the society of Oxygénia: Trunk Bearers, Rememberers and the "upper ten thousand" (one hundred lineages with one hundred members), the last ones living in a literal paradise and sheer luxury on the expense of all others. There are also some refugees and renegades amongst the Rememberers... can Peter escape Oxygénia, get back to his spaceship and his wife who is waiting there for him? This novel is a grim dark vision of what can very well become of Earth if mankind goes on the way it has done for the last few centuries. Today, there are already structures on Earth similiar to the dreadful "Oxygénia Trust" with its one hundred lineages, "elites" who don't bother about the fate of billions of other humans; there is pollution and climate change which is both very well capable of turning Earth into Oxygénia if our species doesn't change the set course very soon. See what the future might be like, and let's hope and take actions that it's not too late already, that we still can get off the path we're on to now – the path to Oxygénia.

were the Invisibles, they knew from each other even when they<br />
barely knew each other and didn't know where everyone of them<br />
worked or how many they were together, and only few of them had<br />
connections to each other. They didn't dare to get more intimate<br />
than that because they feared to endanger themselves and the fled<br />
ones in the cave.<br />
ORO was one of those who dared the most for the cave<br />
inhabitants. But if something happened to him, the others would be<br />
in danger, too. That was the reason why he had acted disguised on<br />
ONs arrival.<br />
Just a minute later, he would have rather runned after his<br />
friend. But if it was him indeed, if he had returned, it didn't just<br />
mean that ON needed him and was coming for him, but it also<br />
meant that from there, a return was possible.<br />
And suddenly, ORO didn't find his place anymore. He drank<br />
from the drug, but the drink that was usually so soothing and<br />
sedative now didn't help much. Dull despair overcame him, he now<br />
laid down, then got up and ran out of the house. On the morning of<br />
the fifth day, Sunshines secret message arrived: ON had come back.<br />
And ORO replied to her the same secret way: Tonight we meet at<br />
the usual place.<br />
