Man. The Awakening is a science fiction book in which the author questions and reveals what happens when humans regain the abilities their creators gave them, making them the most powerful beings in the galaxy.                         

Man is the galaxy’s most fearsome creature, constructed as a unique war machine, who rose up and escaped from his creators and ended up a captive on a planet inhibiting most of his powers. But what were to happen if Humans again found themselves beyond the limits of their incarcerating planet’s effects and they regained all of the awesome abilities their creators had given them? In other words, what if they started the process that the other races of the galaxy referred to as “the awakening”? 

Just as a single rock can suffice to get a lethal avalanche in motion, so can a lone awakened Human be enough to rattle the entire galaxy.
