Description

In 4029, Homo convertibilis has replaced Homo sapiens and their scientists study the "Pierre de Vent," a collection of political, historical, and ancient sacred texts written by the "founding father," who is the reference of the new society.

2054, to combat the chronic anemia of the sedentary population, who live cloistered and under government tutelage, the pharmaceutical company Orson and Orson, of which Nucleus is the main shareholder, developed a regenerative pill called Jouvence. Everyone is clamoring for it. "Unfortunately," the side effects of the miracle product affect the libido of the consumers, causing them to literally die of pleasure.

Nucleus manipulates governments to gradually rid the planet of the surplus humans who no longer have a place in a society where finance has supplanted mass consumerism. His hope is to turn Earth into a true Eden for his people who are, in his eyes, the only humans worthy of survival. However, a persistent infertility crisis amongst his kind, casts a dark shadow over his once-promising vision of a utopian future. Meanwhile, in the Metropolis, some Sedentaries, including Winston, manage to escape the systematic and inevitable extermination set in motion by Nucleus.

Will they be able to survive the persecution of the army of liberty and the reactivation of the GMO seeds of hyper-accumulating hyacinths that has covered the entire planet?

Gripping, provocative, and chillingly prescient, Eden: The Final Solution is a dystopian tour de force that challenges the limits of progress, morality and reimagine the Orwellian dystopia, shaped by the excesses and anxieties of our time. Fans of Brave New World and 1984 will find themselves enthralled—and terrified—by this haunting vision of the future.

Dystopia with a Side of Doom

Eden: The Final Solution is a dark, daring, and disturbingly delicious dystopia that left me both mind-blown and slightly terrified for humanity’s future.

Eden: The Final Solution is a chilling and thought-provoking dystopian novel that imagines a future where humanity has been reshaped by science, greed, and manipulation. The premise of Homo convertibilis replacing Homo sapiens, along with the disturbing side effects of the miracle pill Jouvence, creates a world that feels both imaginative and eerily believable. I really enjoyed how the book weaved together themes of morality, survival, and the dangers of unchecked power—it reminded me of the classics like 1984 and Brave New World, but with a fresh, modern edge. It was unsettling at times, but in the best way, because it made me think about how close we might be to such a reality.

Okay, this book straight-up gave me goosebumps! 😱 Eden: The Final Solution throws you into a future where pleasure literally kills, governments are controlled by corporations, and survival feels almost impossible. I was hooked by the weird mix of science gone wrong and humans trying to hang on against all odds. It’s dark, it’s wild, and honestly, I couldn’t stop reading because every chapter made me wonder just how far things would spiral. If you like your dystopian stories bold, twisted, and impossible to put down, this is your next obsession. 🌍🔥📖

This really worked well in the scifi element that I was hoping for and enjoyed the overall concept and how the world was used in this storyline, it uses the future in a unique way and was glad I read this. The characters were everything that I was wanting and enjoyed in this type of book. Pascal Bouquillard was able to weave a strong tale and was glad it was so well done, i'm so glad I was able to get back into this world and characters.
