Deprivation by Roy V. Marshan

Condemned to become the people of Necroplis’ next meal, Luke Harper must do everything he can to prevent his fate. Teaming up with a fellow inmate, he escapes into the wastelands beyond the city. Out there survival is brutal, trust is fragile, but whispers of rebel Outlanders promise hope.

Being on the run is only the beginning. Fragments of a memory-wiped past claw their way back. Luke begins to see the reality of the system he fled, and the truths buried deep within himself.

The more secrets he unfolds, the more he questions: Is cannibalism truly the darkest horror his world has created?
