Iconocop
This refreshing take on urban fantasy is the first book in a promising series. Written in the style of Jim Butcher's New York Times Bestselling series The Dresden Files.It began with clones. They cloned fallen loved ones, and recreated legends from history. But with the appearance of the Twins of Magic, everything changed. Suddenly they were manufacturing real-world clones of fictional characters, complete with their 'special abilities.' These Mythicons changed the social landscape.
Mythcorp went viral over night.
Unfortunately, so too did some of their creations. A hybrid DNA/neural-net virus attacks random Mythicons and Icons, turning them into super-powered killers. In response, Mythcorp creates the Iconocop Program. Specially trained to hunt down, neutralize supernatural abilities, and recycle these rogue monsters, Iconocops quickly become urban celebrities. One stands above the rest, in skill, efficiency, and brutality.
This unstable anti-hero is the one they call when an uncontrollable Icon (who conquered the ancient world in his first life) kidnaps the Twins and assumes control of Mythcorp's advanced tech.
With the help of a petite warrior named Kana, and her pet demon, Knox the Iconocop hunts down a monster in a world of bizarre beings and unexpected encounters.
