reviewed on + 7 more book reviews


The noir crime novel goes sci fi. Whether you're a fan of Philip K. Dick or Raymond Chandler this tale will engross you. It has it all: setting, character, humor, mystery, suspense, plot. And, most important, it's creative. The author's ideas blew me away. Without giving too much away, the story is set in an enormous grounded MegaMall, New Richmond, Virginia. The protagonist has fled to his home ground with 7 clones he is trying to protect. Immediately, a gang of thugs grab them and he has to figure out who has marked them for death. A mindblowing portrait of a future which might come to pass plus a read that blows the opposition away.
