The idea of having an 'Olympics'' of arts, the idea of painting masterfully all at once, on cue, in front of an audience, is ridiculous. It's another way to paint (haha) Ascenders as less-than, not human, bad guys. As an artist, I call BS. As a writer, I call BS. This is not okay. Don't give this to your kids. ( ) terriaminute | Dec 4, 2022 | This book has an interesting premise, but the story was so slow to warm up that nothing ever quite grabbed me enough to pull me into this world. Kamali was arguably the most interesting character and, I’ll admit, it was a slog to get through to the end after she stopped being in the focal lens of the story. I wanted to like it but it just never sucked me in. I won’t continue the series. ( ) loyalwolf | Aug 22, 2021 | I like the author's description of a boy who wants to be a machine. This definitely belongs on the You g Adult shelf. It's an interesting world and l like the characters. I look forward to the rest of the series.

What would you give to live forever? Seventeen-year-old Elijah Brighton wants to become an ascenderâ??a post-Singularity human/machine hybridâ??after all, theyâ??re smarter, more enlightened, more compassionate, and above all, achingly beautiful. But Eli is a legacy human, preserved and cherished for his unaltered genetic code, just like the rainforest he paints. When a fugue state possesses him and creates great art, Eli miraculously lands a sponsor for the creative Olympics. If he could just master the fugue, he could take the gold and win the right to ascend, bringing everything heâ??s yearned for within reachâ?¦ including his beautiful ascender patron. But once Eli arrives at the Games, he finds the ascenders are playing games of their own. Everything he knows about the ascenders and the legacies they keep starts to unravelâ?¦ until heâ??s running for his life and wondering who he truly is. The Legacy Human is the first in Susan Kaye Quinnâ??s new young adult science fiction series that explores the intersection of mind, body, and soul in a post-Singularity worldâ?¦ and how technology will challenge us to remember Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
