In the book, "The Adoration of Jenna Fox", the main character Jenna is recovering from an accident that left her in a coma, and her parents have taken her to a secluded location. Why does she only remember fragments of her past, why do her parents want her to recover in private and why does her grandmother look at her so strangely and act so distant from her?
Does the fact that her father works at Fox Biosystems have anything to do with Jenna's story? This science fiction story makes us look at the extremes that a parent would go to save their child and the reality that future biomedical advances may bring. What choices will we make as a society when the boundaries of medical science come face to face with societal ethics?
Part science fiction/medical thriller and part teenage coming of age story, The Adoration of Jenna Fox, is a non-stop adventure that will be sure to please both science fiction fans and anyone who likes a story well told. This book will keep you thinking long after the final page is read.
