De Voorouders van Morgen

Deze serie dompelt lezers onder in een post-apocalyptische toekomst waarin de mensheid drastisch is geëvolueerd door gentechnologie, waardoor sommigen achterblijven om de ecologische schade uit het verleden goed te maken. De centrale missie omvat het herstellen van uitgestorven soorten, een essentieel onderdeel van de herstelinspanningen van de aarde, gehuisvest in een fascinerend Museum van de Evolutie. We volgen een jonge vrouw uit de laagste menselijke kaste terwijl ze op reis gaat die verborgen geheimen ontrafelt en de grenzen vervaagt tussen menselijkheid, evolutie en de definitie van leven zelf.

Aanbevolen leesvolgorde

  1. 1

    In a post-apocalyptic world the human race has evolved beyond us through genetic engineering - and we've been left behind to make amends for the damage inflicted on the earth. The reversal of the extinction of long lost animals is key to our reparations and all of these are housed in the Museum of Evolution, along with another species of human that hasn't existed for 30,000 years. Elise belongs to the lowest order of humans, the Sapiens. She lives with her parents in an ostracised community of impoverished, ecological houses, built to blend with an idyllic landscape. Deciding to widen her stagnating life in the manufacturing base, she takes a chance opportunity to become a Companion to a previously extinct species of human. But Elise has secrets of her own that threaten to be exposed now that she is away from the safety of her home. And while living in the museum, Elise realises that little separates her from the other exhibits...

  2. 2

    Elise and her companions have made it to the safety of Uracil but at a price. Desperate to secure her family's passage, she makes a deal with Uracil's Tri-Council. She'll become their spy, jeopardising her own freedom in the process, in exchange for her family's safe transfer. But first she has to help rescue the next Neanderthal, Twenty-Two. Twenty-Two has never left the confines of the steel walls that keep her separated from the other exhibits. She has no contact with the outside world and no way of knowing why she has been abandoned. With diminishing deliveries of food and water, she has to start breaking the museum's rules if she wants a second chance at living. One belongs to the future and the other to the past, but both have to adapt--or neither will survive.
