Against all odds, she survived. The first girl born in fifty years. They called her Eve...

Eve wants control over her life. She wants freedom. But how do you choose between love and the future of the human race?

Eve of Man is the first in an explosive new trilogy by bestselling authors Giovanna & Tom Fletcher.

Beggars in Spain

2004

by Nancy Kress

In this future, some people need no sleep at all. Leisha Camden was genetically modified at birth to require no sleep, and her normal twin Alice is the control. Problems and envy between the sisters mirror those in the larger world, as society struggles to adjust to a growing pool of people who not only have 30 percent more time to work and study than normal humans, but are also highly intelligent and in perfect health.

The Sleepless gradually outgrow their welcome on Earth, and their children escape to an orbiting space station to set up their own society. But Leisha and a few others remain behind, preaching acceptance for all humans, Sleepless and Sleeper alike. With the conspiracy and revenge that unwinds, the world needs a little preaching on tolerance.
