The beginning of this book was a little slow for me, but once it got to the main part of the story, I was hooked.

When Nick goes to a rave at an abandoned Estonian prison, he has no idea that he is about to be abducted and wake up years later to find out he's been cloned. It then becomes a fight for his life as he tries to find a way to escape back home to his fiancee and get justice for not only his clones, but the other clones he encounters. It really makes you think about the future of science, and what we could be in for if scientists ever reach that point. The science itself is actually well-explained and not just glazed over, showing that the author really does know what he's talking about, which makes the story that much better.

A free copy was provided to me by the author in exchange for an honest review. ( )

The Human Forged by Anthony J. Melchiorri may be classified as Sci-fi because it’s set in 2094, but the story is a wonderful combination of mystery, thriller and suspense.

Melchiorri opens strong with a vividly described setting in Estonia. The futuristic concepts and advancements in technology are well researched and believable. They are easy to digest and don’t deflect from the plot’s suspense. Melchiorri’s eye for detail and continuity creates a well-structured novel with excellent pacing that balances the action, suspense and revelations.

My only complaint is that the ending felt rushed. Melchiorri ties together the plotlines with a satisfactory conclusion but some of the final dialogue felt forced, and the “moral lesson” felt didactic. ( )

A very interesting book. A little on the terrifying side, knowing it's something that could actually happen. If not now I'm sure not too far in the future. It was a great example of determination, strength and perseverance. The human desire for survival. It was definitely a quick and exciting read. ( )

Thought Provoking!

"The Human Forged" was very interesting. I expected an Estonian type of book and got more of a futuristic book with an Estonian feel. It is almost nerve wracking to see the technological advances of today and reality of what could be. "The Human Forged" gives you something to think about. If you like FBI, CIA government conspiracies/cover up this is a fast pace short read for you. I enjoyed it.

The Human Forged was given to me for my honest review. ( )
