Fracture is a novihomidrak gone wrong. The novihomidraks, human children taken by a dragon and incubated in a dragon egg for a decade to infuse them with the power of the dragons, are nearly immortal creatures with a destiny to save the universe. The memories of Fracture's original human child-self should have been wiped out, but she was reborn prematurely. Now, Echo exists as a remnant of a past Fracture should no longer remember.
Living under this duel identity and split personality is not easy, especially on the world to which they have been exiled. The news is controlled by the government and only the wealthy can afford instant access to it. Everyone else, Echo included, has to pay for it. Unfortunately, it's the best way that she can keep tabs on what her other self, Fracture, has done. This time, Fracture might have gone too far.
"Hey, that was the car!" The boy riding his bicycle across the street turned to look back at Echo’s white Purreal as she sat at the stop sign. His words along with how he looked at her made fear punch her into the gut. She knew she’d done nothing wrong, but what if she’d missed something?
A smaller, dark haired boy pedaling along shortly behind was now in the middle of the intersection in front of Echo. "Huh?" he said, swerving to miss his friend who had slowed down. He then corrected quickly to avoid hitting the curb.
Echo thought the boys were going to stop. Fairly certain that the intersection was now clear, she stepped on the accelerator and turned right, the opposite direction the boys were heading. What have I done now? Echo thought. She couldn't remember, but she hadn't checked the news today.
Glad I finally got around to reading this :) (Book slumps suck and hadn't wanted it to affect this)
This was so much fun! Slightly confused at first once but once I understood Echo it came together pretty quickly and I couldn't read fast enough.
LOVE the world building hinted at too... would love to see what else Miss Blair could do with this.
