AUGMENTED: Book 3 in The Hybrid Series (YA sci-fi)
Race to the Clouds is the world’s deadliest competition—and Lee Urban’s only chance to save her home. Winning the competition would garner global media attention and give her the coverage she needs to dismantle the enhancement programs. With less time to train than her rivals, Urban and her team must find a way to best the competition. But as enemies close in, riots erupt, and her homeland teeters on the brink of civil war, only one thing is certain—she’s running out of time. Not just for herself, but for every Natural she represents.
