REBEL SEOUL, by Axie Oh

The story: Lee Jaewon spends his life one step ahead of the gangs who want to own him, the government that wants to make him their man, and the bill collectors who won't stop at a little torture. He has little to lose--but he finds that perhaps, there's something worth gaining. When he secures an internship that throws him together with Tera, a young woman formed and raised as a weapon of war, Jaewon can't help falling for her. Even if it will never work. Even if it could bring down the country. Even if they could both end up dead.

June Cleaver's ratings: Language PG-13; Violence R; Sexual content PG; Nudity G; Substance abuse PG-13; Magic and the occult G; GLBT content G; adult themes (parental abandonment, betrayal, political intrigue) PG; overall rating PG-13.

Liz's comments: A futurist story starring genetically-enhanced warriors operating Transformer-like war machines. Any reader of Dan Wells' or Brandon Sanderson's YA sci-fi books will also like this one.
