"The stuff of trite science fiction plots"

"The end is interesting in a creepy and unexpected way, but leaves many questions unanswered and personally I feel the omission of these answers doesn't help the story. Most importantly: Where is the clone going? What is the purpose of the clone? Is there really a colony where the clone of the wife is waiting? Why did he get to see 'his original'? And just a general: Why? The end is clever but with so many things left unanswered it leaves the story leaning too heavily on "the stuff of trite science fiction plots", as you put it. The dialogue in cursive is a stylistic but pointless choice that actually makes the story harder to read. The text looks cluttered. These points are me nitpicking, however. Overall, I greatly enjoyed the story and the ending left me a little queasy which is excellent in my opinion."

Holy Hell

"This was an excellent take on this premise. I did not see the ending coming. You set it up so well and I felt a lurch when the ending came. The descriptions of the setting were on point and the characters were well done! The reference in the beginning gets you bonus points though."

"Excellent short read. Was wondering what direction this would go in, as lots of unpleasant things can happen with transporter technology (granted this wasn't Star Trek tech, but still.) Would be interesting to see where this would go as a longer story. Almost a pod people kind of situation. I am intrigued."
