this was thoroughly a great story, I loved the worldbuilding in this book and I really enjoyed reading this book. The characters were great and I think it would be great to get a sequel to this.

I enjoy science fiction/dystopian lit, but rarely -- if ever -- find characters that are older than teenagers. Days of Future Found is a novel with "mature" and interesting characters. Ellie, the main protagonist is a woman of 60+. She's lively, interesting and detailed. The premise of "Days of Future Found" examines the fate of older people in a post-climate change world. I enjoyed reading about the Ellie's world and the people within it. I'd an enjoy a sequel to see how Ellie and company fare.

I couldn't get into this one. It was just too far out there for my taste. Other people may enjoy it, as I feel this should be listed as Science Fiction vs Literary Fiction.

Days of Future Found by Mary Wark is a recommended dystopian novel.

In the year 2039 Ella lives in a climate-protected complex. She is an active senior who appears to be aging at half the normal rate as her peers, according to the Longevity Institute who has been tracking her for years. Her friend has told her to start noticing that older citizens seem to be quietly disappearing. While her friend seems to think there is some nefarious activity going on, Ella isn't sure. She does know that she'd like to break out of her narrow life. When the Institute offers her a trip to Florida at the same time her friend will be going there, Ella accepts the invitation and the two expect to uncover more information about what may be going on with senior citizens.

This is an uncomplicated dystopian and climate change fiction with a narrative that is easy to read and follow. The chapters follow four different characters, with the focus being on Ella. The scare that the Longevity Institute could be up to no good and may be planning to use Ella's bodily fluids or body to make longevity drugs for others never feels like a real threat and danger never seems imminent. While a changed future is presented, the changes presented are assumed and never fully explained.

Wark presents a comfortable cli-fi dystopian with a focus on older rather than younger characters. This is published by Silverreads, an indie imprint for releasing Wark's future forward fiction and is also a site for older readers to gather and review books.
