I read them, the plot's are ridiculous though, wasn't there one where Alex has a clone Confused ?

I mean, if you want to make them completely real with modern tech, make them real, if you want to make them science fiction, make them science fiction - don't mix the two together though, you just end up with a jumbled mess.

That said I enjoyed the latest one, the plot matured a small bit (still outlandish though).

I don't think there was one where they cloned him, but i could be remembering wrong.

I'm reading the new one, I think 7, right now. It's called Snakehead. I'm not very far though, I just started.

^ I didn't hear about it at all either, I didn't find out until a few days after the release. I saw someone on here mention the books, then I remembered a new one was supposed to come out in November, only to look and see that it already had. I'm about half way through it now Very Happy

A new one, Snakehead, just came out recently (about 2 or 3 weeks ago) I'm not really sure when the next one will come out though...have you read Snakehead yet?

I have no idea where your bs is coming from, but I for a fact remember that they didn't clone Alex. That's just a full load right there. The plots aren't ridiculous either, and if they are, why are you reading the books. But i seriously need to pick up Snakehead lol.
