Jackson ("Jax") Day is about to discover a truth that will derail his destiny: his world of power and privilege never should have been. With "virtual time travel," people of the future tried to redeem a tragic past by assassinating history's most notorious genocidal dictator. Disaster ensued. In the new history, eugenic ideologies that would have been discredited by war gradually conquered the world, culminating in the society called Töpia. In this new history, humanity has been reduced to two races: the "superior" Cassians and the "inferior" Indinners. Now, compelled by information from a distant future, Jax emerges as a reluctant hero. Through unexpected alliances, failure and faith converge to transform his hate and prejudice into hope and love. With the help of a resistance movement known as Scion, Jax begins to piece together clues about a new destiny he could never have imagined...
