“Identicality is exhilarating!”
It’s a thriller that takes you to a place where "I is another", and "identical is actually distinct." I can’t wait to see the movie. It’ll put The Matrix to shame.

“Koppelman is a masterful storyteller”
This was such a fun, interesting, and thought provoking read... with quite the unexpected twist! The story teeters on the edge of reality with very believable characters and motivations. Jay Koppelman is a masterful storyteller, and it's truly hard to believe this is his first published novel. I'm ready for the second!

“A book filled with surprises”
Perfect for people who try to guess what will happen next—and who delight in being wrong. Also for readers who ask themselves “What would I do?” when there are no easy answers.

“would make a great techno-thriller movie or mini-series”
Identicality has authentic characters, a fast-moving plot, lots of spy action, and a shocking ending. It touches on ethical issues arising from new technologies. It would make a great techno-thriller movie or mini-series.

“thoroughly human characters grappling with the extraordinary dilemmas”
The technological wonders in Identicality are only just out of our reach, but they have profound implications for our sense of ourselves. It’s a sense we feel as we witness thoroughly human characters grappling with the extraordinary dilemmas that animate this thrilling and thoughtful novel.

“not just a fanciful science fiction”
Identicality delves far beyond the limits of imagination. It is not just a fanciful science fiction story. It keeps the reader on the edge as it touches on all too plausible future scenarios about what will be possible with medical advances. Jay Koppelman raises critical issues of ethics and morality which reside on the edge of the not-distant-at-all future. You will finish this book and wish it could go on. This is a fantastic read. Don't miss it!

“moral, philosophical, geopolitical, and personal issues”
None of the characters in this fascinating novel are equipped to face the moral, philosophical, geopolitical, and personal issues raised by billionaire Adam Braudy’s latest discoveries. Will these be of extraordinary help or of major harm for mankind? And what if they are stolen by those who have already sniffed their existence?

“the ultimate surprise ending”
This is a gripping, well written science fiction novel. It held my interest from beginning to end— and the ending was the ultimate surprise ending. Koppelman has left the door wide open for a sequel, which I hope will be forthcoming!
