Human cloning. Technology evolves faster than we do. The law shields us from our worst temptations. But the opportunity is there, dangling just out of reach-perfection and ascension... or delusion and destruction. In this collection of clone-themed stories, ten of today's top speculative fiction writers explore our morality, our built-in societal restraints, and reflect upon our state of grace. Similar is not necessarily the same. "CLONES: The Anthology" features stories from Amazon bestselling authors Rysa Walker (the CHRONOS series), R.D. Brady (the Belial series), Susan Kaye Quinn (the Singularity saga), Best American Science Fiction notable Samuel Peralta (Faith), and USA Today Bestselling and Multi-Award Winner P.K. Tyler, plus five more of today's top authors in speculative and science fiction. "CLONES: The Anthology" is Book 1 of the 2 Book Frontiers of Speculative Fiction
Chronos historians Madi, Tyson, and Katherine and their cohorts are on the enemy's trail, fixing the mess that sociopath Saul Rand has made of history - and of the Temporal Dilemma rules. Another time shift is on the horizon, and this time, it's one that reflects Saul's twisted vision. When the shift hits, it plunges the United States into a modern dark age where superstition trumps science and seventeenth-century witch hunts are no longer a thing of the past. But Saul has added a new hurdle to this insane reality: he's hunting the Sisters of Prudence. Clones of Katherine's daughter, the Sisters are pawns to be sacrificed on Saul's time chessboard - unless the team can track him down at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival and erase him first. Saul is calling the shots, so he's ahead of them every step of the way. With the clock ticking, this could be the endgame for Chronos and, if they fail, for reality itself.
