(Quote) "Maybe someday I'll see the real thing." This sentence sums up this whole book, for me. It is both literal and metaphorical. It means exactly what it says, and yet it applies to the story on a profound, philosophical level. Mace, the protagonist, lives in a surreal world, in which technology imitates reality. In this world, he is, what he is not. He is human, but not like you and I. He has been genetically altered.With this proposition as our starting point, we don't really know what to expect. Author Gale Stanley, as our storyteller, must guide us through the telling of this tale. The reader must surrender to the tale as it unfolds. We can not anticipate it, unless of course, we are anticipating the unexpected. Again, our storyteller does not disappoint.As the cover implies, this is a book in which there is Male/Male sexual activity. It is tastefully done, becoming a part of the story, rather than the reason for the story. Still, it must be said that this book is not for anyone under the age of 18, since the content is mature, although the plot is attractive across genres. I agree with the other reviewers about this: M/M, Paranormal, Romance/Erotic. This was my first time reading this genre, yet I do recommend this book highly (5 stars), being convinced that readers of this genre will enjoy this book. It is part of a series, yet it reads well as a standalone also.Reviewed by Thomas Jerome BakerAuthor ofHow to Coach A Debate Team**I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for a fair and unbiased review.
