Enlightenment is the prequel to On the Edge of Eureka, detailing the beginning of the dystopian Eleutheria. It's part pandemic novel, part family drama, and part darkly funny sitcom about the apocalypse. It stars Kate Davis, a socially awkward teenager with few friends and a broken family, who works for a shady federal organization known only as "the Academy." She and her- well, not exactly friends- study virology and epidemiology for the government, under very little supervision and leadership. When a new pandemic emerges, the government gives up, but Kate won't be that easy to coerce into submission.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

Age-Appropriate Angst: In between Kate worrying about her scientists slowly dying of a new virus, there's Taylor and Scarlett talking about friendships, relationships and parties.

Absurdly Powerful Student Council: Rebecca is treated as if she's a government dignitary instead of a school leader. That being said, this is The Academy, where students are treated as smaller and easier-to-control grownups. Based on the work Kate does, a highly prestigious position like the President is justified.

comment
Adults Are Useless: Kate, Natalie, Taylor, Rich, Dana, Belle and Lucille are the only people in the lab. There is no adult present. Kate's stepfather is a drunk, her mother is neglectful, and the man in charge of "Infec Sec" is useless. The CDC and other US government facilities rely on the Academy to an extent, and are implied to be using Kate and co. as "lab rats" for diseases they don't want to deal with themselves.
