I can't begin to describe how juvenile and poorly written this books is.The premiss is interesting but the results are poor.  We're supposed to believe that a man in a wheel chair will just miraculously jump at the chance to be "teleported" to a new world where his mind will be moved into a clone of his body.  The clone has been tailored to appear as the man at 20 years old and "enhanced" to be better than he was.  He just has to agree to a mission with other soldiers from around the world that are nearly dead.  He's going to just do that without asking questions?To put it simply, this author fails to build the back story in any credible way.  The dialog between characters is incredibly unbelievable.  Quite frankly, it's an interesting concept that's told elsewhere in a much better way than other authors.Overall I found the writing to be forced and insipid.  Honestly, I wrote like this when I was in Jr. High and thought it was pretty good.  It wasn't good when I wrote it then, it's not good when this guy writes it now.  I know some will disagree with me, I know many will think I'm overly critical.  But frankly, I really hated this book.Lesson learned: ALWAYS read the reviews first.  I was in a hurry and just about the book.  Don't make my mistake.
