Tubes of Death — Robert James Allison

In a loveless society, a thousand years in the future, political correctness has been taken to the extreme and total harmony has ensued, but at great cost. With the aid of super computers a world-wide government controls the economy, relationships, food production, medicine, research, entertainment, transportation, and life itself. However, in the tunnels buried deep below the city, where the government's electronic reach is limited, Joe Borders discovers an ancient writing that changes his life and all those around him. Marked for detention and relocation, Joe proves he isn't so easily detained and using the ancient decaying tunnels beneath the city as his refuge he and a spunky young woman, who probably knows more about computers than the government, set out to destroy the government's death grip on society and along the way they discover things they never even dreamed existed.
