Story
In America after the second Civil War, the pro-choice and pro-life armies came to an agreement: The Bill of Life states that human life may not be touched from the moment of conception until a child reaches the age of 13. Between the ages of 13 and 18, however, a parent may choose to retroactively get rid of a child through a process called "unwinding." Unwinding ensures that the child's life doesn’t “technically” end by transplanting all the organs in the child's body to various recipients.

The Narrator’s Favorite Performance of 2019
"It created memorable characters that felt very real."
"I had the pleasure of self-producing the stellar young adult sci-fi epic 2nd Gen with the husband and wife author team of Andrea and William Vaughan. Not only did their story surprise me, it created memorable characters that felt very real. This helped to ground a fantastic space adventure in reality. I also picked this book because I want to highlight a pair of newer authors. One of the best parts of my job is getting to work with established authors who are masters of their craft. But equal to that is the excitement of discovering and introducing a new voice to audio fans. I hope everyone enjoys listening to it as much as I enjoyed performing it. Thanks for a great year, listeners!"
