Funny as hell (literally) and I can’t wait for more.” ????? “Shocking, hilarious, explosive – it’s been too long since I got sucked into a book this way.” ????? “It’s like Lord of the Rings with Rambo and Bruce Willis, Clint Eastwood, and Chuck Norris in it. I highly recommend it as an enjoyable read that also sparks some deep thinking.” ????? “Supernatural thrill ride!” ????? “It was a mix of many disparate elements: conflict between good and evil and the complexities that play into distinguishing the two; salty, earthy soldiers’ wit contrasted with mind-blowing metaphysical concepts; most important, musings on the importance of beer!”

Six billion identical clones make up the entire population of Earth, and William 790-6 (57th Iteration) is exactly like everybody else. In his one year of life he will toil in suburban mediocrity and spend as much cash as possible in order to please his corporate masters. When 790’s first birthday (and scheduled execution) finally rolls around, a freak accident spares his life.
Living past his expiration date changes 790 profoundly. Unlike other clones he becomes capable of questioning the futility of his own existence. Seeking answers in the wilderness, he discovers a windmill with some very strange occupants, including a freakish, dinosaur-like monstrosity. Which is especially strange since every animal on earth is supposed to be extinct…
Dark, haunting, and blisteringly satirical, BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS is the story of one “man’s” attempt to finally become an individual in a world of copies.
