Více o knize

Imagine a planet where inhabitants can design their newborns, selecting traits like hair and eye color. Here, the latest cosmetic procedures have transformed a multi-ethnic population into one uniform appearance, erasing skin pigment as a trend. Many have undergone experimental treatments for survival or to access the nuclear-powered transcontinental tram system. For years, peace reigned until a shocking event unveiled secrets that led to "The Dark Days." The narrative follows a child born with a mark that sets her apart as a person of color in a world devoid of diversity. As she grows up in her village, she faces the law that mandates her departure due to her uniqueness. Brydus embarks on a perilous journey into a fractured world to discover her destiny. Along the way, she meets various characters and experiences that shape her identity. Brydus emerges as a fierce, gun-toting, fist-throwing, horse-riding woman in a society that has not seen anyone like her for years, except in faded history books. Her story is a powerful exploration of individuality and resilience in a conformist world.
