TWINSOULS A Doppelgänger Novel eBook Frank J Bruno Reviews
It was something new for me. I found the story to be unique in it's structure and form, it held my curiosity and surprised me with it's conclusion.
I liked this book.
Frank J. Bruno has quite a few releases in his body of work at the moment but his 2010 release of 'Twinsouls A Doppelganger Novel' is one of the few which could be thought of as genre work. In it, we follow Robert Palmer in the not so distant future of 2097 where transporter technology has been created and while it appears to work seamlessly there is a tragic problem. In the novel, Palmer is returning to Ellay from a medical conference in Frisco, only after he tries to use the transporter system it appears that nothing happens.
The reality is that not only is he transported but a glitch causes him to have a copy stay behind. Now, there are two Robert Palmers and the doppelganger has a status in society of 'nothing' and the only way he can take his life back is to remove the Palmer that transported.
While I quite loved how much of an original take on the future, society, and transportation technology that this gave us - I think my main problem with the book is that there seems like a better solution would be in place for this kind of an accident. Honestly, it was a great read and the plot, pacing, character development, everything was top notch but this solution seemed a bit out of place for the rest of the society we ended up seeing. Still, a thrilling ride from start to finish as we see the secondary Palmer who we are following trying to regain the life which he feels was stolen from him.
