От издателя
Locke Jenkins has some catching up to do. After spending 260 years as a disembodied mind in a little black box, he has a perfect new body. But before he can move on with his unexpected new life, he'll have to return the Favor he accepted from the shadowy resistance group known as the Network.
Locke must infiltrate the home of a government official by gaining the trust of his daughter, seventeen-year-old Raine, and he soon finds himself pulled deep into the world of the resistance—and into Raine's life.
In Fox Forever, Mary E. Pearson brings the story she began in The Adoration of Jenna Fox and continued in The Fox Inheritance to a breathtaking conclusion as Locke discovers that being truly human requires much more than flesh and blood.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Pearson completes her Jenna Fox trilogy with this gripping and bittersweet volume. Locke Jenkins, whose consciousness was stored for 260 years until illegal technological advances allowed his body to be rebuilt (and enhanced), returns to his hometown of Boston. He's left Jenna, once the love of his life, in California, taking only her urgent wish that he embrace this second chance at life. First, Locke must repay the Network, a shadowy resistance group, for engineering his escape from earlier dire circumstances. The favor they ask greatly compromises his ethics: Locke must find out where the government is hiding an imprisoned rebel leader by ingratiating himself with Raine, the beautiful and conflicted daughter of a regime official. The city Locke arrives in doesn't resemble the Boston where he grew up, but there's less futuristic world-building in this installment than in The Fox Inheritance. What remains consistent is Pearson's seamless blending of speculative science with well-plotted action, as well as her ability to create introspective characters who ask challenging questions about what it means to be both human and humane. Ages 12 up.

Amazing:)
This series means so much to me on so many levels. The characters and the plot of each book were just so amazing I can't even describe it. I found myself crying at the end of each book because they were so good. The series ended perfectly, I couldn't have pictured it any other way. Jenna & Ethan and Locke & Raine have something I long for. I could get emotional writing this review. I wish Mary E. Pearson would have wrote more because I love the books so much! Such an amazing book, highly recommended❤️
What a great read!
Started on the 2nd book of the series first trolling thru my local bookstore and came across this book. Hooked me just by reading the inside jacket. Finished it in 2 days could not put it down, what a great read, filled with drama, suspense, a unique and thought out storyline with very real and likable Characters. Absolutely loved this series, this one is not to be missed.
