Falling free by lois mcmaster bujold5/21/2023 He hatches a plan to save them and allow them to live life on their terms. Leo, who has only worked with the quaddies for a few months, seems to be the only person who acknowledges that they are people despite their appearance. They shouldn’t exist and aren’t protected under intergalactic law. They don’t have standings as human beings. The quaddies (the experimental humanoids who are classified as “post fetal experimental tissue cultures”) are considered little more than inventory, and the company who funded the project to create them are equally as anxious to find a way to get rid of them once they’re proven to be obsolete. Soon, Leo finds himself placed in the center of a revolution, forcing him to confront the ambiguous morality that plagues the Cay habitat, forcing him to take a stand where he’d once only wanted to do his job and stay under the radar. He doesn’t learn how special until he reaches the habitat and witnesses just how loose and fast his employers have played with genetics. Leo is chosen to teach welding to a group of special cases. Leo Graf a talented engineer who finds himself pulled from his current station to a habitat operating in a system on the fringes of intergalactic law.
