Sometimes I think science fiction doesn’t work when it’s fast-paced because you don’t get to dive into the world it’s built around but this book is character-driven so it won’t fall short. I'd love to see what happens in this one. Thank you for this review.

I find the topic of cloning fascinating, and the fact that the book is set in the future is an added bonus. I'm curious to see where Kalin's fate leads him, so I'm going to give this book a try. Thank you for the amazing review!

This story sounds more interest. I am going to add it to my bookshelve and furthermore, When I shall be reading this book, I shall have withdrawn too much knowledge and lessons relating to slavery.

I never thought that the cloned population would be turned into slaves. This is a very tragic and an engaging story I ever came across.

The book cover design is awesome. It sheds little light on what the story entails. Jude did a good job in the characterization of the book. Thanks for your review.

I agree with you that although this book is categorized as science fiction, the topic of cloning that it talks about is no longer fictional anymore. I also like that this book talks about slavery and human rights. I will surely read the book someday. Thanks for your great review.

I am super curious as to what happens with Kalin. Cloning as a topic seems interesting. I don't think I've read many Sci-Fi books on it. Great review

With a character driven tantalizing story, this book surely has it all. It has a futuristic setting which is slowly becoming a reality when you consider today's advanced technology. The book also seems to talk about an uncommon topic, that I am very curious about. Thanks for your amazing review.

‘Tau’ in my home language is actually lion and this novel explains all supernatural features and strength which is also associated with lions which I find really cool about the title. It sounds like one amazing book and this review represents it well.

Latest Review: Between Good and Hollywood by Tyler Patrick Wood

Post by Kirsi Cultrera »

I am afraid that I belong to the group who’ll never be able to read this book, unless it is possible with both eyes shut… a thought of cloning humans is far too scary, and this book paints the kind of picture about future that I do not wish to see. I like the fact that the author added some humor to the story. Maybe it makes this darkish story a bit more bearable!

Thank you for this vividly written review. Regardless of what I think of the book, I enjoyed reading your analysis of it!

This sound like science fiction meets dystopian world and those are some of my favorite things in books. I am curious to see what happens when Kalin tries to break into Project Tau and how the author tackles the big question of humanity.
