Hand of Prophecy von Severna Park
The sequel to Speaking Dreams, set in the same universe in which slavers have a List of people from 18-22 who they are free to enslave if they can find them. When they do find people on the List, the slavers inject them with a virus which keeps them young for 20 years and then kills them. This book is primarily about an underground slave-freeing movement and also features offhandedly queer characters.

I just reread this bit of queer feminist sf. Park deals with slavery, biotechnology, and colonization, and manages to

I enjoyed the world and the characters, but in the end I had no idea what had actually happened or why.
I'm finding this book very difficult to describe or compartmentalise. At times, I felt I was really enjoying it, at other times I was not. At times I knew exactly what was going on, at other times I was completely lost. Some parts were reminiscent of The Matrix, others of religious mania. About the only thing I can say for certain, is that you will be left pondering the nature of good and evil and the fine line between salvation and damnation.
