Below the Surface

By Michael Corso

Hundreds of years have passed since the human race moved underground. SusCom and the S.S. Congress have been lying to the people. The world above is no longer desolate. Samuel Aldare is the only one who knows their secret. He knows it, because for the past two years, he has been living on the surface.

***This is a short story, not a full length novel.***
