Alpha Tribe
American President, Maria Alatorre, realizes two things. The first is that Humanity’s tribalism is the reason for its failure to unite in the face of the Fahr threat. The second is the Earth’s damaged infrastructure cannot be rebuilt in time to save most of the planet’s population from starvation. She embarks on an ambitious program to genetically reengineer tribalism out of the human species and give it a fighting chance should the Fahr reappear. But can she do this in an infrastructure-shattered world where tribalism, in the form of hostile well-armed militias, has a new life?
Honi Kalawai’a is spunky teenager paralyzed from the neck down. On the day the Fahr change the Earth, they too change her. Honi discovers that she can now regenerate her spinal column. She learns that her improved nervous system also allows her to interface with and be enhanced by computers. Soon she finds her computer-enhanced mind involved in Alatorre’s efforts to rebuild humanity. When they find a Fahr database, Honi has to decide whether to attempt an interface with that.
Alpha Tribe” is the second book in The Fahr Trilogy, the sequel to 2016’s “Planet Song”. The books share a single narrative line and should be read in order. I have dropped the price on “Planet Song” to make that easier.
