Science fiction is one of my favourite genres and cloning as a subject is quite fascinating. I would love to read this book. Grear review.

The book reminded me of the series 300 and WestWorld. Two series which I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for your review.

While I am not the biggest fan of sci-fi literature, this book looks very intriguing. I like that there are psychological elements that provoke thoughts as well. Congratulations on book of the day!

I adore a book that grabs attention right away and doesn't let go until you've finished reading it. I'm not sure where such ideas for science fiction fantasy come from but the author has done an excellent job. I'll be sure to check out this book. Great review!

I'm not a fan of science fictions but I think cloning is a fascinating topic. Plus, I can also relate to Kalin getting into trouble for trying to fit in. Maybe I'll get to read the book sometime in the future. Nice review!

I don't care much for teenager sci-fi books, so I'll take a pass on this one. I read the first several pages and, although the book is well written, this just isn't in my wheelhouse of interest. Nevertheless, congratulations to Mr. Austin on achieving BOTD.

Wow, this book sounds to have exactly all the elements that I enjoy reading about: science fiction, possible futuristic developments and a fast-paces story.

This science fiction thriller is futuristic about human cloning and themes of human rights, slavery, and abuse. A creatively written book and honest book review. Congratulations on the BOTD!

By the way it started, it seemed to be action-packed and intense. However, the review presents it as scary, a kind of dystopian future we have had plenty of lately in movies. It isn't my cup of tea, but the review is a good one.

Sci-fi books are not my kind of books. Hence, I would pass on this. Congrats to the author on being the book of the day!

Thanks for that review! It mentions all the things that I look for in a good book. Not to mention the scariest books are usually based on some truth.

I agree with you that suspense, when employed well, always guarantees the reader an intense and exciting experience. Thanks for your thorough review.

I enjoy good sci-fi books such as this one. But it is a major plus for me that this book contains deep themes about slavery and human rights. I also like how this book lingers in our mind even after reading it. Thanks for the great review!
