Assimilation

Seven Societies.  One Choice.  No Turning Back. 

Kena grew up inside Verkent, a conspiracy group whose belief that aliens originated human life on Earth was mocked—until the aliens returned, with a mission to decide whether Earth should be allowed to rejoin their Alliance.

When Kena is invited to participate in the Choosing, it seems the orphaned teen's lifelong dream of Assimilating into one of seven different but equally wondrous Societies in their home worlds is coming true. 

But from the moment she and other Earthers arrive at the Societals' central space station, it becomes clear they're under threat, not only from their suspicious hosts but also an enemy long thought dead.  

With the Societies shaken by turmoil, her own fierce powers growing, a budding romance, and her friends' lives on the line, Kena faces a high-stakes challenge:  Can she find not only a place for herself in these worlds, but a way to save everyone else who calls them home?
