Only the Clonely

by Colin Linder

Step into a world where grief, love, and identity collide—a world where clones are created to heal loss, but sometimes create new wounds instead. Only the Clonely is a chilling and deeply human collection of twelve interconnected stories exploring the lives of clones, the families who commission them, and the unforeseen consequences of trying to control life itself.
From grieving widowers purchasing replicas of lost spouses, to clones discovering their own fractured identities, to the moral collapse of the empire behind it all, this anthology confronts the ethical and emotional complexity of second chances.
Each story stands alone, yet together they form a haunting tapestry of humanity, technology, and desire. Expect gripping narratives, morally complex characters, and endings that linger long after the last page.
Perfect for fans of dark science fiction, speculative morality, and immersive character-driven storytelling.
12 interconnected stories exploring clones, grief, and identity
Discover the human cost of playing god, and the fragility of connection in a world obsessed with replication
Are you ready to face what happens when second chances come with a price?
