Rejuvenation Book 1
The Melter War has left the Earth's surface devastated, leaving humanity to survive on what little land is left between the Scorch Zones and the rising oceans, where towering subscrapers dot the dystopian shore lines.
Bobbie Chan is a doctor caring for the ultra-elderly in one such subscraper when she notices a mysterious, new disease afflicting her patients; some show signs of age reversal before a catastrophic, and often fatal, cardiac arrest strikes.
Bobbie begins to wonder if she is witnessing a bio weapon in full force. A Melter attack? Are they destined to finish the war they started?
Belus Corp, the 'savior' of humanity during the Melter War whisk the afflicted away; including Bobbie's grandmother. But Bobbie is terrified. The 'Rejuvenees' are getting younger but they are also becoming increasingly aggressive, uncontrollably so.
Bobbie begins a race against time to rescue the Rejuvenees and uncover their true enemy.

The book gets off to a great start. Earth has been attacked by a mysterious race that used heat weapons against us. The passage describing a melted Statue of Liberty could be right up there as an iconic Sci-fi moment. In the aftermath of the “melter war” human society has greatly changed, mostly because so much of it is now underwater. The main character is a geriatrician, suddenly some of her patients develop strange orange eyes, and seem to be growing younger.
Very original premise and excellent execution. I can’t wait for the next part.

Speculative fiction is not normally my genre but I enjoyed this highly readable novel that is eerily prescient because it's about a rampant, uncontrollable disease that affects primarily the "ultra-elderly" (those in their 100s). And those in power don't care if the old people die because they believe old people have lived long enough and are a drain on society (sound familiar?).
The twist is...if the disease doesn't kill them, it makes them younger. Beyond that fascinating premise, I enjoyed the Logan's Run vibe of the setting. Byddi builds a believable world that takes on a planet in the aftermath of a devastating alien attack. While life is quite stable post-war, the main character's belief in the new government begins to fade as she (a doctor) meets resistance to her desire to dig more deeply into the reasons for the mysterious illness.
This is the first in a trilogy. I will definitely read the next two!
(I received an ARC of this book for an honest review. I also worked with Byddi as her writing coach on an early draft.)

In June 2034, Planet Earth has just about survived a devastating attack from aliens called ‘Melters’ which has resulted in the rapid heating up of the planet. Most of the world is now underwater, with societies now existing in ‘subscrapers.’ The book certainly starts with a bang, straight into the action with really strong imagery (the Statue of Liberty melting) - it’s global warming with the fast forward button being pressed hard.
The Protagonist is Bobbi Chan, a doctor who works with the ‘ultra elderly,’ who becomes concerned when some disturbing symptons start appearing in her patients. Her employers aren’t overly concerned - it’s ‘just’ the elderly after all - but Bobbi cares for her patients and is determined to get to the bottom of the disease.
Dystopian fiction works well because it’s rooted in our fears, and here the issue of euthanasia and an ageing population, as well as global warming and the problems that this causes for societies. I also thought of the Chinese ‘One child Policy’ when reading this, as you can’t have a child until someone in your family dies.
Part of the pleasure for me in this book was seeing places I’m familiar with, even if they are underwater. Travelling into Armagh was particularly enjoyable, to see how the Cathedral city, and now Irelands capital, had coped. I’m hoping my landlord won’t have read this, as they may put my rent up as it looks as if my apartment may have survived. City hall and Seagahan dam also feature. But if you have extra cash lying around and are looking for an investment opportunity, I’d suggest underwater tourism.
There is a lot of technology here - it’s not my strong point, but it’s well explained. I think in world building, especially when it comes to the future, the tech has to be believable, and it is - I was so happy to see, finally, flying cars - but the problem for me is that it can be then to used to explain almost anything. Not saying it’s a particular problem in this book, it’s just an issue I have with science fiction/dystopian fiction in general.
And too much technology/acronyms get in the way of the story. If I get it once, and I believe it, I’m happy to go along with it for the rest of the book. I think I’d be happy to live without the ‘blinks’ in this book but each to their own (imagine your skull buzzing if you received a text). Nano paint, carebots, sensorfabrik - you can tell Byddi Lee had a lot of fun coming up with this technology.
Science is also a bit of a weakness of mine and I did struggle at times but I got how it related to the overall story. Again, it’s part of the reason why I don’t bother with Science Fiction but I am glad I persevered.
An issue I’ve had with dystopian/science fiction in the past is that the characters are a bit one dimensional but it’s certainly not a problem here. Bobbi Chan is an interesting and complex character, who has built a career fighting illness and death and was affected deeply by the loss of her twin at an early age, and her relationship with her sister Joy is at times a complicated one. I liked the banter between the characters and there is plenty of humour throughout.

Fantastic NI SCIFI
Northern Ireland is a small place, but we punch well above our weight in a number of things, specifically the arts. Everyone knows about our actors, poets and musicians, but many don’t know quite how good we are at genre fiction.
Northern Irish scifi and fantasy is very well served (if under-acknowledged) with a wealth of established and emerging female writers such as Jo Zebedee, LMR Clarke and RB Kelly, all of whom I can heartily recommend (and must get around to writing reviews for…)
Happily adding to that list is the first of the Rejuvenation novels by Byddi Lee from Armagh.
There’s something about 2020 that lends itself to dystopias, and dystopias involving a viral agent are a little too prescient to be ignored these days, so I couldn’t help but download a copy of her e-book to see if she could pull me along for the trilogy of promised books.
Byddi has created a world set in the near future submerged beneath the rising seas in the aftermath of the Melter War. Northern Ireland is now spotted with subscrapers (brilliant) patrolled by passing herring and commuting is by flying car.
Protagonist Bobbie Chan is a complex heroine, working as a gerontologist and with a fierce desire to prolong the already long lives of her patients. A mysterious new disease is spreading among her patients, manifesting itself as a brief age-reversal before ending in catastrophic fatalities or violent psychosis.
Is it possible to recover from old age? Would we want to? What would be the consequences? And what is it about Armagh that would drive a person to dream up such a wild ride? Is there something in the cider down there?
It can be challenging to read speculative fiction set in Northern Ireland if you already live here because familiar references can pull you out of the story, but Byddi has a strong genre game and her tale clips along at a fierce pace, blending the local and the futuristic in a manner which quickly becomes second nature.
And the pace certainly picks up – the final third of the novel is positively hectic and Bydddi clearly enjoyed herself writing the frenetic action set-pieces.
There’s a LOT packed in here, at times reminding me of everything from Logan’s Run, Robin Cook’s Coma, Blade Runner and Michael Crichton’s Prey to name a few. My genre checklist had a full bingo card by the end of the first book:
Angsty hero? Check.
Believable world-building? Check.
Offbeat supporting characters? Check.
Shady Corporation? Check.
Armed goons? Check
Cool future tech? Double check.
In full fairness, it's not quite Isaac Asimov, but old Isaac was a bit of a bore anyway and he never seemed to be having much fun.
Rip-roaring scifi with a great concept.
I’m in for the next one, Byddi!

Years after extraterrestrials unleashed chaos on earth and rendered much of it uninhabitable, the world has settled into something that resembles their new normal. Bobbie Chan was there during what is now referred to as the Melter War, and she remembers the loss and the devastation. Now a doctor, she spends her life trying to help the ones who can no longer help themselves. When a strange phenomenon starts happening with her older patients, she immediately becomes supicious, and when they start becoming increasingly violent, she knows that their affliction is a serious one. When the afflicted start being taken away from Bobbie's hospital, its a race against time to not only to rescue them, including her grandmother, but to also find a cure.
I know I've said it before but it bears repeating: I will never tire of post-apocalyptic fiction and seeing all the unique ways that authors choose to end the world. While much of it is rather on the far-fetched side, there are some instances where the end of the world scenario holds a bit of plausibility, and those are my favorite types. In the case of REJUVENATION, the end of the world feels a little bit real, particularly when the author describes conditons that are too hot, or areas that have encountered devastating, loss-of-life flooding. I also really liked all of the scientific and medical bits in this book, and Lee brings some fascinating medical elements to the table with her very unique rejuvenation plague.
Bobbie was a great character. Smart and incredibly compassionate, I loved that she was methodical in trying to solve the mystery of what was happening with her patients. I think had she been a more impulsive character (like her sister), I wouldn't have liked her as much. And speaking of her sister Joy, I really liked the relationship they had with one another. While they certainly didn't get along for much of their adult loves, they came together and worked as a team when they needed to. And they definitely made a fantastic team.
The ending, while not a cliffhanger, hints at much more to come in Bobbie and Joy's story. I'll certainly be checking out the sequels and seeing how this story ends, and I'm hoping it's on a good note. 3.5 stars.

Author Byddi Lee has created a dystopian tale in which she’s nailed all three facets of great science fiction:
- a flawed, yet highly admirable main character readers care about
- a plot that accelerates in intensity and speed toward en exciting conclusion
- a deftly-written narrative where facts and descriptions about the world are slipped in around the character’s actions, thus creating a smooth read
Three reasons I loved this book!
The setting is some twenty years after aliens attack the earth, causing billions to die and ice sheets to melt so high there’s little arable land left. Most people live in subscrapers embedded in the ocean floor and that rise high above the surface. To control the population, no one can have a child until someone within the family dies, typically an older person, who feel pressured to die and make room for the younger generation.
Dr. Bobbie Chan is a doctor who works in a subscraper off the coast of Ireland with the ultra-elderly, 110 or older, whom she loves. Every day she tells her patients they have value and should live to the fullest until the very end, a passion that makes Bobbie extremely admirable. What she doesn’t divulge is that the death of her twin sister when they were young so traumatized Bobbie she fights the very existence of death.
When a strange disease spreads among her patients and the elderly elsewhere in the world, causing them to seemingly get younger, Bobbie at first sees the heightened quality of life potential. But when enough disturbing symptoms emerge, Bobbie begins to suspect foul play on the part of the Belus Corporation that runs the world. Bobbie’s diehard commitment to her patients’ wellbeing pushes her to investigate.
The author does such a fine job of slipping in descriptions of this new world and its advanced technology that there’s never a feeling of being overwhelmed. Instead, the story stays riveted on Bobbie’s changing emotional state and her fight for truth based on her belief that no one should be made to feel like a burden.
I’m looking forward to Book 2 in this trilogy!

( Format : Audiobook )
"The ultimate dead end job."
Bobby's twin sister had long ago died of an aging disease, then her father and grandfather were killed in the molten wars which destroyed great swathes of the world's surface as we?l as billions of the lopulation. Now she was a doctor, primarily treating the elderly, who were mostly deemed unproductive and expendable especially since life expectancy had been raised well above 100. Then something strange began to happen. Some of the more ancient of the patients began to lose their aches and pains, apparently growing physically younger before sudden death from heart attack. But a few did not die...
An intriguing tale, well and simply told, not overloaded with medical or technical jargon, and with a lead character who is both believable and reasonably well developed. Narration by Savy Des-Etages is also good, her well modulated voice clear with a fairly crisp English accent and pleasant to the ear, although being set in Ireland, an Irish accent would have been more expected. But given that this is an universal story, it really does not intrude. Her character voices are also distinct and differentiated.
An enjoyable, easy read story, the first in a trilogy, which is suitable for all ages with just a little light sexual banter. My thanks to the rights holder of Rejuvination, who, at my request freely gifted me with a complimentary copy via Audiobook Boom. It does raise interesting questions for the reader to ponder, also, I look forward to book two.

Review:
I am so excited I started this trilogy now, because the third book is already out, and now I don’t have to wait to read the rest. This is an amazing start to a dystopian/scifi trilogy. I am obsessed already.
Byddi Lee knows how to world build. I was immediately drawn into this story. Twenty years after aliens attack the earth, life is not going well. Population control means no one can have children unless someone in the family dies…which puts people in very difficult positions.
The plot is intense and unique. I couldn’t put this down. Fast paced with awesome characters and a world that is so realistic feeling, it’s scary to think about.
This emotional rollercoaster is so worth the read. Highly recommended!

This was a very satisfying read. A well-realised world with strong characters trying to negotiate their way through a drowned world, which is the result of a war with an extra-terrestrial race that left most of the earth devastated and melted the ice caps. Against this backdrop, the mystery of hospitalised elderly patients suddenly regaining vigour unfolds in a genuinely intriguing manner. Recommended.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this book as I don't normally read this genre, but I'm so glad I did. The author immediately pulls you into her world and the lives of her characters, effortlessly portraying this futuristic world and its medical terms in such a way that it's a joy to read.
I was hooked from the very first page and can't wait to read more.

Hugely enjoyable and a unique vision of a future Northern Ireland after a massive global climate catastrophe leads to flooding and reduces the available liveable regions of earth. well written, fun and gripping. It kept me awake long into the early hours, racing to finish and get on to the next book in the trilogy

Fun & exciting!

A great read! I was immediately pulled into the story that includes well-rounded characters and a sense of place. A world that has undergone great changes since an attack by an alien race.

Suspense, science fiction, family, friends, and racing the clock...I kept stealing time to read what happened next! Definitely going for book 2!

This was an eye opener. It doesn't seem too far fetched. Byddi Lee has definitely touched on things to come
