One of the conceits of this novel -- that people can clone themselves and load their consciousness into the clone, only losing whatever memories were recorded since their last backup -- has been done before, most notably (in my memory) in Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom. I've gotten fed up with Doctorow's self-promotion in and out of his works, so I figured I could see what a better writer would do with this conceit. Lafferty takes it in a new direction and does a great job with it.

I lost the momentum on this one, too. I’ll try again in a bit because I did enjoy what I managed to read.
