Genesis

Fourteen-year-old Anax thinks she knows her history. She''d better. She''s sat facing three Examiners and her grueling five-hour examination on the 2077 Great War has just begun. If she passes she''ll be admitted into The Academy - the elite institution that runs her utopian society. But Anax is about to discover that for all her learning the history she''s been taught isn''t the whole story. And that The Academy isn''t what she believes it to be.Anax''s examination leads us into a future where ancient - eternal - philosophical questions have dramatically collided with the march of technology where just what it means to be human is up for debate and where the concealed stain of an ''original sin'' threatens the very existence of her brave new world.
