It's 2096, 60 years after 90 percent died from a man-made Bioplague. Humanity has splintered into four unequal subspecies: Immortals, cyborgs, enhancers, and subservient half-human, half-animal hybrids.
The world is anything but equal. Hybrids everywhere are suffering, but 16year-old Raek Mekorian, a wolfish with a nose for trouble, doesn’t see an alternative. Except the Resistance, who don’t stand a chance against the world government. His mom always said, “Keep your head down”.
And he does, until his sister is murdered by a pair of cyborgs. Overnight, his simple life is shattered, fracturing the rigid governmental caste as he is thrust into the dangerous world of superhuman hit squads, Resistance uprisings, and secrets better left unsaid.
With only built-in blasters and the advice of a mysterious professor, Raek must navigate crushing betrayal, self-doubt, and a limitless enemy whose evil knows no bounds.
The fate of mankind may rest in his hands.
Cynetic Wolf is best-selling author Matt Ward's YA dystopian sci-fi debut and features bloody immortality, post-apocalyptic progress, and gene editing that splinters the very fabric of society. If you like dark technothrillers, fast-paced adventure, and surprising sci-fi, are a fan of Divergent, Red Rising, or the Hunger Games, or love dystopia classics like the Handmaid’s Tale, Brave New World, and Ender’s Game, you’ll love this speculative fiction thriller.

By Matt Ward
A YA Dystopian Novel
In the mid-21st Century, technical and biological advancements came at dizzying speed. Cyborgs first, then microminiature components made it possible to implant newborns, simplifying the process and changing the name from cyborgs to cynetics. A small group discovered how to encrypt and back up a person’s soul, personality, being, and achieve a sort of immortality by rebooting the back up into a new body. The enhanced took a biological direction to increase size, strength, senses.
And the most horrible experiments of all, hybrids, mostly human, but the genes taken from animals lent their characteristics. Bearish were big and strong and mostly brown furred. Lizardish were always cold, with greenish skin scales. Rabbitish were nervous and quick, with big ears. Etc, etc, etc. and our hero, Raek, is wolfish. He has excellent hearing and smell, he’s a great tracker and hunter, and smarter than most other hybrids.
But Raek was different. Raek was special. Not only was he wolfish, he also was cynetic. He was smart. He could hook directly into the internet or read a whole book in just a few minutes. And he had blasters inside his hands. When the war started, both sides wanted this special boy. The rebels wanted him to lead them, the government wanted to take him apart to see how a wolfish could be part cynetic.
There are many layers to this story, from the ethics of genetic experimentation, class structure, and slavery, to the horrors of war and political intrigue.
Matt Ward is a wordsmith of great talent, his characters are real and three dimensional. And David Akiva Klionsky is the perfect narrator, with a wide vocal range, and as Raek he is a typical naive teenage boy.
Don’t miss it.
How could a wolfish boy also be a cynetic? Impossible!

The hero of the story is a Raek, a 16-year-old human/wolf hybrid referred to as being wolfish. In this future world sadly it seems we haven’t learned from our past, racism still exists, humanity is made up cyborgs, immortals, enhancers and hybrids. The lower level of this future world is made up of hybrids, they are in desperate need of a leader to stand up for them… enter Raek.
After Raek witnesses the murder of a loved one by cynetics he becomes the hunted and is forced to go on the run with the aid of his professor. During their harrowing escape Raek discovers that he has additional abilities that he must learn to use fast in order to keep them both alive. It seems that his cynetic abilities are important to a lot of people including the resistance who came to his aid during his time of need. This YA dystopian sci-fi story is full of action and humanity.
David Klionsky’s narration is excellent, he has a mastery of voices which made Matt Ward’s future vision come alive. I do not know who designed the cover art, but it is great… in this case you can judge a book by its cover. Matt Ward has put together the full audiobook package with an excellent story, great narration and an incredible cover. This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
