Hybrid

· March 2024 · for ,

Lee Urban’s search for truth could destroy everything.

After narrowly surviving several attempts on her life, Lee Urban retreats into hiding, seeking refuge with her family for the Lunar New Year. But the relaxing holiday turns into a heist when someone crashes the party with intel on the hybrid’s identity.

Driven by desperation, Urban accepts a position within the elite Dragons AI team, a high-stakes gamble that will propel her into the heart of the turbulent West. As she follows the elusive clues to the hybrid, the journey takes her closer to uncovering the truths about her own origins and the odd circumstances surrounding her adoption.

Tensions between the Enhanced and Naturals grow increasingly violent and the Western Federation teeters on the brink of civil war. Urban’s choices threaten to tear her family apart, and the secrets she unearths just might shatter the delicate balance of society.

Review of Hybrid

· April 2024

Urban has pretended all her life to be genetically enhanced. Now she carries that pretense into a dangerous bloodsport versus violent players in search of two people—the genetic hybrid whose DNA will rewrite her society’s rules, and for her own father. In Hybrid, Candace Kade continues the vivid science fiction tech-infused landscape of Enhanced. Urban’s and other heroes’ mission leaves little room for philosophical questions on human genetic engineering. Yet The Hybrid Series book 2 splices a compelling vision of a world formed from Asian and Western cultures, threaded with themes of family and belonging.

Best for: Teen and young adult fans of sci-fi and dystopian fiction.

Discern: Some violence, murder and kidnapping, unethical scientific experiments conducted on humans, heroes participate in illegal activities and pose dangers to others, multiple instances of inebriation, children act rebelliously against their parents.
