Grey Line
Entertainment says:
The Duplication Factor is
a fine piece to read. Very broad, very rich. Expansive. Great
characters, high stakes. A page turner. It has elements of Sci-Fi,
thriller, and romance. It is filled with three-dimensional characters with rich
back stories and justified motivations. On the page and scene level,
this is an easy read. There's a nice command of description and
dialogue as well as an ever forward moving story progression. The
characters all have definite objectives. Structurally it is
inventive, and emotionally it covers all the bases.
 This
is a story of betrayal, the pain of lost love, and the consequences
of human cloning. Be prepared to burn the midnight oil with this
one.
