Inheritance by Jennifer Foehner Wells
5.0
The Druid Gene takes place in the Confluence Universe. This is another first contact story like Fluency, but it’s also so much more than that.
Darcy Eberhardt is a second year med student who has struggled throughout her life to understand her mixed heritage. Her grandmother Harriet often reminded her “You’ve got to be your own person, Darcy. Whatever that means to you. Be that.” Her boyfriend, Adam, is multiracial as well but it’s his Native American legacy that brings them on the hike where everything begins. He has heard stories of a place in the desert with strong geomagnetic energy and wants to share that with Darcy.
This is a journey of someone finding out who they really are, and how that person fits into the universe with it’s diverse creatures and preconceived ideas. Darcy finds she is capable of much more than she ever though possible.
I really enjoy this universe and the ideas around it. Jennifer is writing books that I’ve always wanted to read, science fiction with actual emotions and real character development!
