Great sci-fi book! Medical science type. Cloning, murder, deceit. Enjoyed it very much.

I was surprised to find I really enjoyed this book, as I usually don't read this type. Plenty of action, although it does move a bit slow a few times. Sort of X-Files creepy. Although it's kind of sci-fi, it seems like something that could be happening now. It will make you think.

"Doctors Frankenstein and Jekyll have nothing on this bunch. THE EXPERIMENT is a thrilling life-extension science-gone-mad novel for smart people, with some intriguing ideas about what our future may hold" -- John Sandford

This book reminded me very much of the movie "The Island" When I started reading it, I thought that it must be the book the movie was based on, but it is not. A really good read with lots of food for thought. This could be happening right now.

I found this better than Neanderthal. A good suspenseful read.

A few nice twists, but overall somewhat predictable. Good book for wasting away a rainy day.
