A story about clones, dinosaurs and the concept of Benjamin Franklin.Jacob White works for the Salmon Corporation. It’s an easy job, provided you do what you’re told and don’t ask too many questions. Jacob is told to start bringing historical figures back to life, somehow- the details are up to him. He doesn’t ask too many questions.It all seems straightforward enough, until White realises that his latest task is actually impossible. Faced with a choice between unacceptable failure and the world’s most elabourate bluff, White opts for the latter. Unfortunately for him things are more complicated than they appear, and his lie will have terrible consequences. In the city-state of America Little, every idea has its price and every fantasy comes with a fee. For his great illusion, Jacob will find the cost laid out in blood and revolution.

al stereotype, and all the history books have been altered to make it seem forever-so. I suppose it’s an attempt to make things less confusing for children.
Of all the stories, the most inflated was the biography of Benjamin Franklin. I refused to believe that any one individual could be responsible for inventions ranging from the light-bulb to electricity to the concept of yellow. There had to be some distortion in there somewhere.
