The Odyssey Gene

By Kfir Luzzatto

A global pandemic leaves a small part of the population immune to a deadly virus. Those who are immune are discriminated against. Society views them as a threat and their civil rights are restricted.

John refuses to submit to his fate and become a pariah. Instead, he takes a leap of faith and leaves for a faraway world. But his fight for freedom is not over and the challenges that confront him put his resolve to the test.
