Welcome to the future...
Where the cream of humanity has left for the outworlds, leaving the rest behind...
Where genetically redesigned T. rexes have supplanted pit bulls...
Where population control measures have created an underclass of Urchins, unlicensed children who have no rights - not even the right to exist...
Where wireheads with chips in their brains live vicariously through the downloaded experiences of others...
Where the UN has been turned into a brothel known as Dydeetown, peopled by clones of famous personalities from history and entertainment...
Where a Dydeetown clone of Jean Harlow asks a down-and-out private eye named Sig Dreyer to find her missing lover.
Though Sig loathes the idea of working for a clone, Harlow-c is paying in gold, and that's hard to turn down. Just a missing-person case...should be simple enough.
But neither realizes that Sig's investigation will tip the first domino in a cascade of events that will turn their world upside down.
Described as "William Gibson meets Raymond Chandler," DYDEETOWN WORLD whips the classic tropes of noir fiction and far-future cyberpunk into a relentlessly paced novel about freedom, friendship, and self-esteem. Beneath its hardboiled voice, its seamy settings, and violent events, are people trying to make a human connection...and changing the world in the process.
Dydeetown World The LaNague Federation Book 4 eBook F Paul Wilson
Dydeetown World,Dydeetown World is actually three short stories strung together to form the whole. The characters, stories, and writing are all very simple yet interesting enough to keep a reader entertained.
The main character is a Private Eye who appears to be a bit down on his luck but his luck and his life all change when a clone of Jean Harlow enters his office seeking help. Jean Harlow leads us to the Lost Boys, which in turn leads us back to Jean Harlow weaving the stories together seamlessly.
I did enjoy the read but on the other hand I found the book to be a bit choppy in its pace. Although the stories flowed together nicely, I found the stories in themselves to be a bit thin. Perhaps F. Paul Wilson could have added more detail to the world building aspects of this book. I feel he also could have taken a bit more time developing the characters. This single book may have made a nice thick trilogy.
All in all the book was enjoyable even in its very simplistic form.

Dydeetown World The LaNague Federation Book 4 eBook F Paul Wilson Reviews
I forgot the name of this novel, I searched for deedletown, but the other night I woke up and searched for Jean Harlow clone, bingo. This is a real fun read. Imagine having a T-rex for a guard dog. Read it, it is worth it.
This mix of mystery, Private Eye and Science Fiction is inventive and well-drawn. Three stories blend together seamlessly into a gripping narrative. Whether you fancy hard-boiled P.I. novels, mysteries, or science fiction, you'll enjoy this novel.
Dydeetown World really isn't a novel, it's a collection of three novellas that, while self contained, form a strong and much larger story arc. A clone of Jean Harlow asks a private detective for help. At first reluctant (it's just a clone after all, not a human) the detective chooses to do what is morally right, help the clone. What follows are a series of unique and startling adventures that never fail to entertain, highly recommended.
Of all the futuristic, "harder" sci-fi books that Wilson has written, Dydeetown Town is by far the most successful, largely because it finally emphasizes character and plot, which are Wilson's stronger points, over his interesting but somewhat shallow worlds. Mixing private eye stories with genetic engineering and Orwellian government, Dydeetown World creates an intriguing subculture out of its cast of outcasts, black marketeers, runaway clones, and violent underworld figures. And in its three short tales, Wilson ends up crafting a complicated tale that would hold its own in the mystery genre, one with some legitimately surprising payoffs and some nice twists along the way. It's no Repairman Jack, but of Wilson's future-based books, it's easily his strongest piece, and well worth reading.
Very well written story. Would recommend this to everyone. I've enjoyed this author for many years. You will have a great adventure with this story.
Fun, exciting, entertaining SF !
With a gritty setting and some tough lives being rolled out in this tale, Wilson infuses the reader with such love for these characters that you can't help but enjoy this book. There are three tales here all tied together and they work perfectly. It will leave you wanting more. Don't let the terrible cover art fool you, this story is great.
