Citizen Hill's a genetically enhanced warrior trained to hunt infected humans and rogue Gollums. When Elysium moves into the Autonomous Zone declaring ownership, the Therian Federation tasks her with a mission: infiltrate the organization, find the leader, Julian Bless, and disband the followers. Once on the inside, she discovers a horde of infected humans and Gollums responsible for a series of brutal attacks devastating the Township of New Therian.

Fearing a Gollum invasion, the leaders of New Therian quarantine the city and implement a lockdown, sealing the city in a dome. Citizen turns to the humans of Elysium for survival, but she soon finds herself at odds with her programming, her creators, and what it means to be human. Fighting at Julian Bless' side, she discovers there’s more to the virus, the Federation Leadership, and her origins.

Citizen Hill: Autonomous Zone is created by Simon Sayz, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Citizen Hill: Autonomous Zone

"When we find a new Elysium, we try to vet them first." Athan opened the door for Bless. "We are aware of the possibility of Federation infiltrators. It can always happen. However, do you really think the Federation is that sophisticated already?"


"Yes." Bless didn't hesitate. "I have learned never to underestimate them. They have been aware of Elysium for a long time. Just because we have been on the outside for a long time doesn't mean they weren't planning for this. They knew it could happen. They even tried to infiltrate us outside with Citizen."


"The boy who made contact with us yesterday is a gutter rat from Sector 21. We vetted him as much as possible, but we don't have the infrastructure to verify everything. There is always a risk."


"Elysium cannot grow without risk." This was nothing new to Bless. He had lived under the threat of the Federation for years. The fear he felt for so long was more potent now that he was back in the city.
