Review: A Fabulous Start for The Genehunter Series
Rating: 5 out of 5

I'm a BIG fan of future noir -- Blade Runner, Looper, and everything in between. I like the details in these gritty worlds, and the first episode of The Genehunter series doesn't disappoint. Kewin creates a world similar to other visions we've seen but with enough surprises to keep us wanting more. Simms is a detective of sorts, a Genehunter tasked with finding the DNA of specific people currently on ice (literally) so that certain collectors can clone them and keep them in their zoos. As the title of this episode implies, Simms may not be after the right Tom Jacks -- a famous rock star long-deceased. The first in a series of 5 novelettes, The Wrong Tom Jacks was a thrilling read from start to finish, introducing characters I can't wait to read more about.
