Awakening

In this sequel to Tankborn, fifteen-year-old GEN Kayla's life has changed completely. Once a Chadi sector GEN girl terrified of her first Assignment, Kayla is now a member of the Kinship, a secret organization of GENs, lowborns, and trueborns. Kayla travels on Kinship business while trying to further the cause of GEN freedom. Despite her relative freedom, she is still a slave to the trueborn ruling class. She longs to be truly free, but other priorities have gotten in the way. A paradoxically deadly new virus has swept the sectors--a disease only GENs catch. And now bombings of GEN warrens have started. There must be a way to stop the killing...before it's too late.
