A review by survivalisinsufficient
Kiln People by David Brin

4.0

I was a little wary of this one, because I loved the Uplift books, but hated The Postman and some of his other stand-alones. In this one, people can make clay copies of themselves that have an imprint of their soul, memories, etc. I enjoyed it (although I didn't rush through it or anything). One of the best things this type of scifi does is make you think about how a new technology would be used, and I thought he did a decent job with that.
