When 790’s first birthday (and scheduled execution) finally rolls around, a freak accident spares his life.

Normally on a William's first year anniversary of their birth, they are recycled back into the system so that the next iteration can come along. I was entertained throughout and delighted in the world Kozeniewski created, reluctant to leave when the story was finished. Any goods, services, or technology from DNR and LNR with the exception of qualifying informational materials, and agricultural commodities such as food for humans, seeds for food crops, or fertilizers.This definitely wasn't what I expected, but should have been, considering the off-beat humor that he has throughout Braineater. I was also surprised by this because I wasn’t expecting the amount of depth that was woven into a relatively short book. Dark, haunting, and blisteringly satirical, BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS is the story of one “man’s” attempt to finally become an individual in a world of copies. In Stephen Kozeniewski’s transcendental allegory Billy And The Cloneasaurus, the Platonic Cave like Williamsport-6 provides an apt setting for Billy’s story as his lighthearted quest for individual enlightenment eventually leads to deeper, more poignant revelations about western society in general and it’s obsession with consumerism and capitalism in particular.

In addition to the freak events that allow the 57th iteration to live being humorous, the simple logistics of every character being named William is pretty fun. There are stories of Wills who have gone crazy and run away and are living in the wilds, but nobody can verify those stories. I went into the book blind to every detail except that the title grabbed me and that I’m a fan of Stephen’s work. It was confusing at first since all the Williams clones refer to themselves and each other as Will (although our hero utilizes their numeric identifier to himself).Billy and the Cloneasaurus is a fascinating and darkly humorous look at where our world could end up. All in all, it was a nice distopian fable, a good, though sometimes too direct critique of capitalism, the only thing I didn't liked about it is the scene where I had to copulate with every singe clone of myself! While we attempt to keep our posts PG-13, the material reviewed and discussed is intended for adults (18 years and older). At first I wanted to say that this story is "cute" (and I"ll probably get lynched for that comment), Billy really does turn out to be a goofy, lovable character and I swear if I could find one to adopt I would so own a Cloneasaurus!

Are we all just socio-cultural clones going through the motions and serving the powers that be all the time on a doomed train ride to personal and societal oblivion? On his trek, William stumbles upon a settlement of people living in the wilderness, including the titular dinosaur. But even though I am not very good at speaking English Like other people as much as they can speak English I am just speaking Thai.

He vowed that, from that day forth, he would never be forced into the role that had been pre-assigned for him. The show is set in the fictional town of Springfield and parodies American culture, society and television.Things change, though, when something goes wrong and 790 lives past his death date due to an accident that leaves the machine in need of repairs.
