About the Book
Corgan now lives on the Isle of Hiva, his reward for winning the Virtual War with his genetically altered teammates Sharla and Brig. Brig has died, but Sharla has created clone-twins with Brig's DNA, which leads to devstating results.Book Synopsis
Clones are supposed to be identical... aren't they? Corgan, hero of the Virtual War, has been living a blissful, if placid, life on the Isles of Hiva, his reward for winning the War with Sharla and Brig. But what he doesn't know is that Brig died soon after the War, and yet is not truly gone. Sharla had saved some of Brig's DNA and has created clone-twins with it. Corgan's world is disrupted when Sharla brings one of the clone-twins, Seabrig, to him to raise on the island, while she keeps the other, Brigand, with her in the Domed City. However, when circumstances force Sharla to bring Brigand to the island, they find that while the boys may look identical, their temperaments are not. Brigand is haughty, willful, power hungry, and despises Corgan because of his relationship with Sharla. And, as a result of the cloning process, both boys are growing at an astonishing rate. In what may or may not have been an accident with his clone-twin, Seabrig is badly injured and must be airlifted from the island to receive medical treatment in the Domed City. This leaves Corgan alone with an increasingly dangerous and unstable Brigand, who is now his size, and looking to get rid of Corgan once and for all. A gripping sequel to Virtual War that could be ripped straight from the headlines -- in eighty years....Dimensions (Overall): 8.5 Inches (H) x 5.5 Inches (W) x .48 Inches (D)
