This book was good in highlighting the differences of stem cell research. For me, this book was heavy on the religous aspects. "Do I believe in God, do I have faith that God is real, how does God feel about using stem cells?" Almost all the characters were having some kind of religious/emotional quandry on both sides of the story. I understand how the religous side of the story is important to understanding the characters and their reactions to things happening in the story, but overall it was too heavy for me to enjoy reading it as a fiction book.
I got a few chapters into this, but found it so tedious I gave up. I suppose it is well enough written, and the concept has some merit, but the author works so hard to build suspense that it gets in the way of the narrative and feels contrived.
