A determined man sets out to find out who he is and why he was created in "Questor" (published by AuthorHouse), the futuristic new science fiction from author S. Alan Schweitzer.

The year is 2095 and cloning human beings has become the norm. Howard Questor is a cloned replicate of a man in a high level position in a company called Cybele, a research institution which has created and benefitted from the medical and scientific breakthrough of cloning humans.

"Questor" chronicles the intensely personal, anguished search that Howard embarks on to probe deeply within himself to ascertain the reason for his creation. He continually asks himself, "Who am I?" Along the way he'll meet both friends and enemies, and he's lied to and tortured as he grows ever closer to the truth.

The continuing quest to improve humans and nature through scientific experiments can have far-reaching implications, possibilities that are explored in this fast-paced, engaging new book.
