Summary: Scary and interesting
Review: This book was a great read. It starts off like a hopeful experience, but then the main characters realize maybe their choices were mistakes. This book could probably really happen one day, some of the things they went into, who knows, maybe it already is...

Summary: Very good
Review: This is the kind of books I like, it never goes out of the story with descriptions and descriptions that the only thing they do is to fill pages that the writer doesn't know how to fill, the end of the book is not so good but the rest of it will keep you reading, and the final question is: could it be possible in the near future?
As we can see in this book, with this kind of technology everybody will suffer sooner or later, because nobody can say to another person how to live his life, no matter if you think exactly like the other person or you know how or what thinks that person.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A very entertaining read...
Review: To sum up my review, this was a pretty good book. It's full of action, romance, genius, insanity, a little science, suspense, and danger. It's the type of book you read when you want to leave your every day life behind -- for a brief period in time -- and be swept away on a fast-paced, exciting ride.

The characters, while lacking in depth, had enough "meat" on them to do what they were supposed to do -- make the story work. And that, they did.

The story, while not plausible at this point in time, was very interesting. And, there's more than one "science" project going on and an unexpected plot twist, which made the story even better.

The bottom line is, I'd recommend the book and I'm looking forward to Wes Craven's next.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Encore! Encore!
Review: When I heard Wes Craven had written a novel, I wasn't sure what to expect. I've always enjoyed his movies, but...a novel? I heard him discuss it in a TV interview and was curious enough to take a chance on "Fountain Society." I'm so glad I did. This novel is not only intelligent and well-researched, it's fast-paced and thoroughly entertaining. He approaches the subject of cloning with realism, yet tells his story in a way even lay readers will find fascinating. His characters are well-developed and intriguing--I was especially taken with Alex, whom I hope Mr. Craven will bring back in another novel. I hope there will BE another novel from this enormously talented writer/director.
