The pages fly by and it builds to a great twist and a satisfying conclusion. Chance - (Constance) by Matthew Fitzsimmons 16.

It is disturbingly realistic, and I can imagine everything that occurs - right down to the cult leaders which will spring up around cloning. Who killed the protagonist? Where's the body? Why were they killed? What is it like to investigate your own death?Ĭue lots of running around, playing with futuristic tech (which, thankfully, never gets in the way of the plot), and menacing villains. Are clones humans? Are they property? Can they inherit? Are they the same person as their original? What will protesters spit at them?Īnd then we also get a 'locked room mystery'. It's a brilliant exploration of human rights. When you die, your brain is downloaded to a clone. The premise is great - cloning is real and you can back up your brain. The best sci-fi, in my opinion, doesn't dwell too long on how the magic box works - but spends time exploring the consequences of opening it.
