(2) YA In 2035 sixteen-year-old math whiz Dahlia Grillo joins a resistance group, hoping to make a difference in the world. The Central Eight (C-8) companies rule everything; favelos (the poor) roam the towns; and terrorists and mercenaries fight for a place in the new order. This angry, posthumously published story demonstrates Myers's acute social conscience. Dahlia's an appealing protagonist who raises troubling questions about her world.
