This is part of the Amazon Original ‘Forward Collection' curated by Blake Crouch. This is my first experience with the author, and I enjoyed that he brought his usual genre of horror into the mix. These are available through prime for free on kindle or audible!
What would you do if there was a global pandemic where so few of us survived? What if you lost the one you cared about the most? If our technology allowed for you to clone them, to in a sense, bring them back, would you do it? More importantly, would they want you to?
I enjoyed this one. Parts of it were very eerie, with elements that felt like Blade Runner, Ex Machina, and even I am Legend. The idea that even a clone would be just as predisposed to the pandemic as it's forebear was a really cool idea. As if the genetic makeup couldn't be altered enough by technology to save them.
Personally a 5/5*. A deep dive into what it means to be human, and what one would do to their humanity to not be alone. To regain the one they love.
