A novel that is fast-paced science fiction thriller is always interesting to read, and this one sounds like a good one. I can't wait to read it. Thank you for the review.

I think science fiction authors in particular are reflecting the abuses we see in society today. Technology is not being used as a tool to equalize the masses, it is to provide bread and circuses for those of fixed mind, and then to widen the gap between the haves and have nots for the rest of society.

Project Tau is an intriguing thriller about a boy named Kalin. He got a scholarship to attend college. He was excited to go to college. This book is action and sci Fi packed. I like the characters build up and development. The book is well structured.

This is both intriguing and surreal. I wonder if this is a warning of a grim future if the current trend remains the same. Cloning is a double edged sword. The review is also amazingly fascinating.

Your review was so capitivating that it could make anyone want to read this book. I am not one to read science fictions books very often yet this book sounds very intersting and really illuminates how this book could potentially be something seen in our future.

A science fiction about cloning? Count me in! Reading books which broadens my imagination is quite the feat for me. Though I don't really believe such fictional things will happen, I am fond of how creative sci-fi authors can get and makes a story for the wandering minds of people like I. Definitely would love to read. Thanks for the very much convincing review!!! :)

A very thrilling read indeed, the book seems to accurately depict the downgrading nature of humans. We are the kind of people who think that we are taking one step forward but actually we are taking ten steps backwards.

I usually don't read science fiction books but this one sounds really intriguing. There are many themes in this book making it seem very interesting - the cloning, the fact it is a thriller, etc. Putting it in my list of 'Going to read'! :techie-studyinggray:
"You can be more aware and more present simply by resting in the present moment, open to all that is, without trying to control it or grasp it with the mind. Truly, a marvelous way of being!"

While I do believe cloning could be a topic of the future, I personally don't think they wouldn't have rights given the monumental global rights movements and the sensibilization of people towards inequallity issues nowadays. Still, part of the beauty of sci-fi is the exploration of endless possibilities, and may this be real or not, it is still a scary story to dive into.
However, how real you make it sound, the addictiveness of fun and morbid you portray, and the little details you mentioned like humor in-between just makes it impossible to not want to read it. Great review!

I love cloning, tho there's this sigma towards the concept that gives it a bad outlook. This was an interesting read by the way.
