Sleepless Trilogy Series Book 03

In this final installment of Nancy Kress's award-winning Beggars
[Sleepless !!! - Ouzicat] trilogy, it is now two hundred years in the future.
Regular human beings hate and fear the Sleepless and the SuperSleepless,
genetically-modified humans who are immune to disease and hunger and who do
not need to sleep. When the Sleepless plot to take over the world and leave
regular humans powerless, civilization and the very meaning of the word
'human' hang in the balance.


Nancy Kress ends her Beggars trilogy (which began with the novella later
turned into a novel, Beggars in Spain) almost full circle from where it
began. Against a backdrop where rich humans have themselves modified to
perfection and poor, unmodified "Livers" eke out a nomadic existence, the
genetically superior Sleepless have stopped distributing Change. Change is
the miracle substance that prevents disease in all humans. In cutting off
Change, the Sleepless have ignited a class war that will ultimately be
resolved not by technology and science, but by the children of technology,
who must live side-by-side despite their differences.
