The DownloadedThe Downloaded by Robert J. Sawyer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This novella by Robert Sawyer has a bunch of rather interesting, even oddball elements that, for the most part, work very well together.

What happens when you incorporate Mennonites, androids, deep space astronauts, deep simulation, and convicts -- shaken, not stirred -- and make them work out some ethical concerns, both personal and on a huge scale?

Indeed, there's some interesting questions to be resolved and even stranger outcomes. And honestly? I can't quite blame any of their conclusions. Decent story.
