A review by kgagne
Kiln People by David Brin

4.0

I'd been wanting to reread Altered Carbon — then along comes David Brin and scratches the same itch. I enjoyed his take on cloning people and the multiple characters he created. My only complaints were that there was a lot of exposition, such that one character had to be literally tied down to listen to it all; the last few chapters were a metaphysical slog; and some of the mysteries had solutions the reader never could've guessed. But I still thoroughly enjoyed it and gave me a new appreciation for the likes of Surrogates, Dollhouse, and even 6th Day.
