Although I have not read book 1 I didn't need to to enjoy this fast-paced story. This book quickly plunged me into an alternate future filled with fun characters and a suspensefukl dilemma, all in about 100 pages.
The future includes human beings - Wholers, Cyborgs and Clones. Cyborgs are former Wholers who have three or more artificial parts like the hero sixteen-year-old Houston Ye turned into a cyborg after a childhood boating accident. They are also considered uncivilized and onl More...

Recommended for gr. 4-8. I found it a bit confusing not having read the first book - the reader has to figure out the future history as s/he reads along. (It turns out there is a timeline at the END of the book.) The idea behind this series is great: clones and cyborgs (humans who have one or more artificial or "biofe" parts) are treated as less than human, with fewer rights and more restrictions. I felt that it was choppy and forced in places. The main character was made a cyborg

Cyborg is the second book in the series. In this book we follow Houston as he, Leanna, and Carlos fight the new wholer law decreeing everyone with any artificial parts to be sub-human.
The first book I thought was better than this one. This book had many problems starting with the pacing of the book. There was a space battle between the moon station and two different ships. This scene took 2 sentences! And that wasn't the only time in the book that the pacing went this way. I jus More...

I was so excited to see this book at the library when I went because I enjoyed Clone Codes. However, after reading it I have mixed feelings. I was torn between two and three stars, but the end redeemed itself so I pushed it up to three.
First, the pacing of the book was off. There were some important scenes that were brushed over. At one point they're in orbit and RUBy says they'll be in Cyborg City soon, and literally the next sentence has them walking in the city.

After I read THE CLONE CODES, I was hoping that the authors would follow up with a story about Houston, the Cyborg that helped Leanna escape. Thankfully, CYBORG is his story.
Huey wasn't always a Cyborg. When he was 7, he was in a boating accident. When he awakens in a clinic, he has a different eye, arm, leg, and artificial heart. According to the World Federation of Nations, a Cyborg is anyone having three or more synthetic body rep More...

In the second book, we learn more about Houston Ye. The classes are certainly divided and it is becoming even more dangerous for all of the main characters. They want things to be peaceful, but that is not sounding realistic.

Fast paced, but jumpy and did not flow well. It seemed rushed.
Attempted to be "frisk" but seemed to skim parts that should have been elaborated upon to give the characters more depth.

preachy. weakly written redundant timeline in the back. I can only think that the intended audience is a gifted third grader. Pumped this book out too fast guys.

A lot of interesting concepts, but not the best writing. And there are a number of unbelievable things going on that the authors take no time to try to convince the reader that they might be believable. Still, it is a quick read, and will probably appeal to fans of the first book.

Not as good as the first one in the series -- Clones. Hope the next one is better.
