'Anaximander is a brilliant creation, one of the great characters of YA fiction.' - New Zealand Books

Genesis is a thriller that asks the big questions: What is it to be human? What makes a soul?

It's the year 2075. The island Republic has emerged from a ruined world. Its citizens are safe but not free. They live in complete isolation from the outside world. Approaching planes are gunned down, refugees shot on sight. Until one man, Adam Forde, rescues a girl from the sea.

Anaximander, a young Academy student, is put through a gruelling exam. Her special subject: the life of Adam Forde, her long-dead hero. What secrets has she discovered and what is her own surprising link to Adam?
