Book excerpt: Dr. Noyle Iaam, one of our most brilliant authorities in android logic systems, excels in his ability to look at a process and improve on its efficiency or effectiveness. With our home world dying from the overmining of its resources, he feels android mining could be dramatically improved to a higher yield. His successes to make androids learn as they go and increase their knowledge base to independent, sentient thinking is about to expand a workforce to a planetary level. Dr. Uriel Resiw, as his young assistant, brings with her a unique line of problem solving that may be just what he needs, but Dr. Sypher, also one of his colleagues, has his own ideas over those of Dr. Iaam and is determined to show them all. Noyle feels the androids should control their own will to think. Sypher wants to control their will to think. Greed can feed on the need for recognition of one's ability, especially if one feels they have been passed over. As the androids evolve and begin to create unexpected problems, so do the conflicts of Dr. Sypher. The fight to save their home world may become a fight for their very lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clones are supposed to be identical... aren't they? Corgan, hero of the Virtual War, has been living a blissful, if placid, life on the Isles of Hiva, his reward for winning the War with Sharla and Brig. But what he doesn't know is that Brig died soon after the War, and yet is not truly gone. Sharla had saved some of Brig's DNA and has created clone-twins with it. Corgan's world is disrupted when Sharla brings one of the clone-twins, Seabrig, to him to raise on the island, while she keeps the other, Brigand, with her in the Domed City. However, when circumstances force Sharla to bring Brigand to the island, they find that while the boys may look identical, their temperaments are not. Brigand is haughty, willful, power hungry, and despises Corgan because of his relationship with Sharla. And, as a result of the cloning process, both boys are growing at an astonishing rate. In what may or may not have been an accident with his clone-twin, Seabrig is badly injured and must be airlifted from the island to receive medical treatment in the Domed City. This leaves Corgan alone with an increasingly dangerous and unstable Brigand, who is now his size, and looking to get rid of Corgan once and for all. A gripping sequel to Virtual War that could be ripped straight from the headlines -- in eighty years....

Book excerpt: Trial of the Clone is a choosable pathway gamebook that allows the reader to make choices, interact with the world, and otherwise navigate through over 500 scenes and thousands of potential pathways.

The reader plays as a clone who sets out to find his place in the world, solving challenging puzzles and fighting monsters along the way. Weinersmith's writing is characteristically irreverent and satirical, painting a dystopian future world filled with comical, colorful characters and clever surprises. Trial of the Clone is Zach Weinersmith's first full-length book, and is evident of his sprawling understanding of literature, science, logic, philosophy, and technology. Weinersmith is the sole creator behind Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, a daily comic that boasts over 250,000 daily readers and served more than 500,000,000 comics in 2011.

Book excerpt: Imagine a life of virtual reality -- a childhood contained in a controlled environment, with no human contact or experiences outside of the world of computer-generated images. Corgan has been genetically engineered by the Federation for quick reflexes, high intelligence, and physical superiority. Everything Corgan is, everything he has ever seen or done, was to prepare him for one moment: a bloodless, computer-controlled virtual war. When Corgan meets his two fellow warriors, he begins to question the Federation. Now Corgan must decide where his loyalties lie, what he's willing to fight for, and exactly what he wants in return. His decisions will affect not only these three virtual warriors, but all the people left on earth.

Book excerpt: Meet Fisher Bas: 12 years-old, growth-stunted, a geeky science genius, and son of the Nobel Prize-winning creators of the Bas-Hermaphrodite-Sea-Slug-Hypothesis. No surprise: Fisher isn't exactly the most popular kid in his middle-school, tormented daily by the beefy, overgrown goons he calls The Vikings. But he senses relief when he comes upon the idea of cloning himself—creating a second Fisher to go to school each day while he stays at home playing video games and eating cheetos with ketchup. It's an ingenious plan that works brilliantly, until Fisher's clone turns out to be more popular than him—and soon after gets clone-napped by the evil scientist Dr. Xander. Can Fischer save his clone in time, or will his whole plan be exposed?

Book excerpt: Lt. Wayson Harris is one of thousands of clones born and bred to be the ultimate soldiers. But unlike the others, Harris is an outlawed model—one with independent thoughts and an addiction to violence. Presumed dead after his troops were massacred, Harris—who blames the U.A. for the slaughter—has gone AWOL as a bounty hunter. Still, it’s hard for a clone to overcome his conditioning, and Harris finds himself drawn back into the U.A.'s service by his mentor and creator, Fleet Admiral Bryce Klyber. Now, with separatists rebelling throughout the galaxy, the fate of the U.A. depends on Admiral Klyber’s plans for the Doctrinaire—the largest, most powerful battleship ever constructed. But there are those who would do anything to stop Klyber, and Harris must decide whether he should fight against them…or work for them.

Book excerpt: With modern technology and brilliant scientific minds, the idea of cloning a human being is now a reality. If sheep and monkeys can be cloned, what is stopping scientists from cloning humans? If your answer to this question would be morals, think again. Everyone wants to get recognized for their accomplishments, if not for the simple reason of satisfying our own egos. Many potential organ recipients wait patiently for that lifesaving organ. But because of the long line of potential recipients, small number of donors and large price tags associated with the organ transplant, an overwhelming number of these potential recipients die. The people who are lucky enough to receive organ transplants are still at risk of their body rejecting this foreign organ. However, if the organ is cloned and the defective gene pinpointed and replaced with a healthy gene through genetic engineering, thereby creating a perfectly healthy organ within a reasonable time frame, there would be no chance of the body rejecting this organ. Cloning is a reality, and the possibilities are endless, both good and bad. The expression "the evil twin" comes to life when the lives of two people are created from one. Imagine having an identical twin who looks exactly like you, but you have no idea that she even exists. Modern technology, genetic engineering and a dysfunctional environment lure one of these individuals to kill. Out of jealousy, the clone seeks revenge on her cell donor. The cell donor, Stevie, was born in 1966, in Akron, Ohio. Prior to her birth, her family experienced a tragedy with the loss of their son, at age six. The young boy gave up his life to a liver disease called Caroli Disease, which is an enlarged liver due to cysts and dilatation of the bile ducts which secrete alkaline fluid which aids in the absorption of fats in the liver. By the age of two, Stevie started to experience high fevers, stomach pains and vomiting, which was originally diagnosed as a common flu. When the symptoms persisted, she, too, was diagnosed with Caroli Disease. The diseased gene was suspected to be passed down from both her mother and her father. Stevie's mother, Rachael, attended night school at Medley University to get her Bachelor of Science in Nursing. It was at the University where Rachael met Dr. Bradley Terrance. Dr. Terrance was head of the Biomedical Science Department. It was after the loss of Stevie's brother and directly after Stevie's diagnosis that Rachael was first introduced to the idea of cloning through Dr. Terrance. Dr. Terrance proved to Rachael that he had successfully cloned a chimpanzee named Martha using cells from an embryo. He explained to her, that with genetic engineering, he would be able to locate and eliminate the defective gene that caused Caroli Disease and inject, in its place, a healthy gene, therefore, creating a perfectly normal, healthy liver. Rachael agreed to let Dr. Terrance clone her last remaining child. Rather than cloning just the liver, Dr. Terrance convinced her that it would be more practical to clone the entire body for spare parts in the event that another organ would malfunction during the transplantation process. Less than a year later, the liver transplant was performed, and the baby liver donor was left to expire. At least this was what Dr. Terrance led Rachael to believe. The baby liver donor was saved by Dr. Terrance by replacing her empty liver cavity with a primate liver. Dr. Terrance raised the clone in his lab at the University. He named her Stephanie. The wife of Dr. Terrance was the only person who knew of Stephanie's existence. Because Dr. Terrance's time was limited and split between Stephanie and his wife, there was a r

Book excerpt: Your cloned child is a mirror, simultaneously reflecting who you are and what you might have been. It's potential was your potential. Can your clone achieve the dreams that fell to the wayside in your own life, or is it doomed to repeat your mistakes? Clones is a collection of speculative short-stories that explores the relationship dynamics between parents and their cloned children. It inspires speculation as it entertains, probing issues we will face in our lifetimes.
