Add Land Is… throws Lascivia and Karnali Rapacio into a future where climate breakdown has reshaped not just the biosphere, but humanity itself. Shipwrecked on "Atlantis," a floating island born from the Pacific Garbage Patch, their quest for home collides with a bizarre sub-culture forged from plastic and desperation—a society that feels like Peter Thiel's Seasteading with a shocking, irreverent twist, demanding absolute self-sufficiency and radical social adaptation.

As they navigate the sheer discomfort of their new reality, Lascivia and Karnali are forced to evolve in ways they never imagined. This isn't just about survival; it's a steep learning curve in self-discipline, conforming to local customs and the necessity of discarding old norms and values in order to pass. On Atlantis, they discover a paradoxical existence: they've never eaten so well or experienced so much physical intimacy, yet simultaneously felt so challenged and marginalised. Guided by an irreverent narrator, this climate fiction journey delves into the strange impacts on the human biome and the lengths people go to survive, exploring sexuality, ethical eugenics, and self-preservation that challenge established moral standards. Prepare for a cautionary tale that's equal parts shocking, thought-provoking, and unapologetically erotic, while also exploring the switch between the profane and the sacred. Part one of three books.
