My Fair Clone

My Fair Clone, by Will Watson, follows Joe Zanowski, jaded millionaire, ladies man, and ne're-do-well who falls head over heals for the beautiful and vacuous Michelle, the product of secret human cloning. Joe wants her for the blank slate that she is so he can make her into the perfect wife. But, Michelle has been promised to another, literally, when she was still a child in the lab. Raoul Chavez, drug kingpin, bought her for body parts and aims to collect. A twisted version of My Fair Lady ensues as Joe tries to make Michelle into his version of Eliza Doolittle, while Raoul closes in to exercise his ownership rights. The tug of war between love vs. body parts gives new meaning to the phrase “all’s fair in love and war.” Told as a contemporary science fiction cautionary tale, My Fair Clone teaches that love and biological necessity can sometimes be at odds, but love has the edge; in this case that’s good news for sci-fi fans.

4Captivating Moral Exploration  Mar 21, 2009
By One Minnesotan
While reading Will Watson's novel, "My Fair Clone," the reader is compeled to dissect and examine his or her own moral convictions and depth of character when brought face to face with dilemas concerning humanity, decency, and love. The experiment is well worth the read!

5Page by page suspense  Mar 01, 2009
By Cruise Boy
"My Fair Clone" kept my interest from the beginning to the last page. The moral conflicts involving human cloning and criminal experimentation caused me to further think upon the ramifications of human parts machines. This novel strives to entertain as well as to inform and stimulate moral conscience.

4My Fair Clone-An unusual love story  Feb 16, 2009
By sbValentine
How is this all going to play out? This question keeps you going throughout the book until the very last page. Will Watson has written a fascinating, unusual, modern love story. Old fashion values and ideas collide with a brave new world. Along with the story are questions about the implications of cloning along with different perspectives surrounding the process. As someone has said, "Just because we can do it, should we?" This is an entertaining story that keeps you thinking long after you've finished the book.

4Fun, familiar, futuristic...modern twist that will keep your attention  Feb 11, 2009
By Teresa Kayman
Strong character development provides support to a techno-love story that in today's anything-goes world, one can almost imagine actually happening. I enjoyed the read...kept my attention throughout. Watson delivers the right amount of tech with a good balance of plot, personality and romance. Should be well-received more by romance & adventure readers than the sci-fi geekdom.

4My Fair Clone - "My Fair Lady" for the 21st century  Feb 08, 2009
By db "book guy"
I have to admit, I really enjoyed Will Watson's "My Fair Clone." He has taken the wonderful love story that animates "My Fair Lady" and recast it with an eye to the 21st century. Only in Watson's imagination, there is real competition and evil afoot.

This is a well-written, enjoyable love story that not only moves that familiar story to our technological times but also imbues the timeless motives of love, jealousy, power and desire into the story.

A very good read.
