UNIQUE DYSTOPIAN TALE By 2093 American life is a strange mix of failing technologies, psychic predictions, and radiation induced abilities. Tattoos are mandatory to differentiate two classes, privileged and slave.

Dalton Battista fears that his fading tattoo is a deadly omen. He's either the heir of the brutal tyrant of the new capital city, Exodia or he's its prophesied redeemer. Shy, handsome, smart and in possession of powers he doesn't yet realize, he escapes an order for his execution by fleeing the city with the help of Lydia, who quickly captures his heart. But can he escape a destiny that will force him to marry another girl and return to Exodia as its liberator?
What readers are saying about EXODIA:Exodia is such a well written book, it exceeded all my expectations. What makes this young adult dystopian story stand out from all the rest is that it contains a few unique touches. At the beginning of each chapter is a quote from a page of a ledger, and although at first it seems cryptic, by the end of the chapter you understand its meaning. - Sue ★★★★★

The characters in this story are all very real and believable and I could easily connect with them and empathise with them in their sadness, fear, hurt, anguish, and their happiness. The main characters were well developed and you could see them grow during the story, and even the minor characters were written in such a way that I was affected by their sufferings and emotions as well. - Amazon reviewer

Always a pleasure to welcome well-written, imaginative,New science fiction, apocalyptic, post-apocalyptic, dystopian fiction. Author Debra Chapoton turns her talent to exploring a very ugly dystopian culture,post-nuclear war, a 90-state North America ruled by brutal tyranny and divided by class war. Young Dalton Battista is the tyrant' s grandson, but he is not the elitist "rich boy" one would expect. He is shy, curious, loves history, roots for the underdog. Just possibly, he is more than just Dalton Battista. Just possibly, he may be the redeemer. - Mallory at The Haunted Reading Room Reviews
★★★★★

I highly recommend this book to those who love dystopian stories and enjoy a bit of a challenge with the hidden codes in the anagrams used throughout the story. If you're after a unique twist on a dystopian novel,this book is for you. - Sue
★★★★★

Based loosely on the ancient story of Moses, this two book dystopian journey (EXODIA and OUT OF EXODIA) crosses genres, combining young adult, new adult, sci-fi, magical realism, and speculative fiction for an adventure full of symbolism, hidden codes, and thematic imagery.
