A thousand years from now, where cars can float, we can jump to different galaxies, and where the underground is thriving. The only way to survive now is to join an underground movement, and do jobs for them. In return, the overlords give you safety and the occasional pay-check. Wren was forced into this work, and eventually wants out. Soon, the opportunity will come and she'll have to decide between loyalty and what is right. (Book cover is by _NotToday_)

The Superspecies One: Genetically-Engineered Animals Rebel Against Humanity by GordonByron
2 parts Ongoing
A young girl is brutally abducted by a bloodthirsty grizzly, forcing a group of scientists to mop up a genetic engineering operation that is out of control, threatening any and all who enter the woods. One question remains: are the animals really dangerous for no reason at all or does their enhanced intelligence simply make them recognize something damning about human nature that needs to be understood before it's too late? Two groups of scientific researchers are sent into the forests where animal attacks are frequent to study what is happening only to find themselves attacked and outsmarted (in part) by the animals themselves. Two environmental action groups find themselves at odds over the fate of the dangerous genetically-enhanced creatures. One group wishes to see the offensive beasts destroyed and the other wants to preserve them at all costs, even at the sacrifice of human life. The two sides find themselves at an impasse, unable to resolve their differences in an amiable way, leading to ever-increasing tension, animosity, kidnapping and murder. Entire forests are quarantined in an attempt to control and contain the beasts but soon holes are discovered in the operation as key players start disappearing in addition to animals eluding their hunters, fighting back and changing the field of battle to their own terms. As the "pro-beast" and "pro-human" sides pursue to their own interests with the unfortunate bears caught in the middle (struggling to establish themselves in a human dominated world), the animals learn more and more to rely on their expanding awareness to survive and thrive in their new world...to evolution-shattering effect.

Beatrix doesn't live in a normal world. Not any more. Seventy-five years ago, the lights all over the world went out. And when they came back on, people with mind powers came forward to rule the former United States. Other countries figured out how to work with these people. But, in the new country of Avalon, those with powers were in power. Beatrix belongs to a group of rebels who want to over-throw the government. But, as Beatrix's responsibilities grow, it becomes apparent that one group just wants to take over for the other. She is unsure how she fits in. And how the new husband that was forced on her fits in to everything else.
