"The Mark of Man" is an intoxicating science fiction novel that begins in 2014 with a mark that appears on humans at birth, the rings determining the person's life span. In a world where the populace feels like slaves to an existence determined by the number of rings of the mark, Hal a Forty wants to be remembered, leaving a legacy behind. A successful artist he is very aware of his expiration date and never expects that at his latest exhibition his life will change dramatically.

Laozi Vedas the head of the Vedas Corporation and Hal's sponsor has been instrumental in the discovery of a peaceful planet called Kepler where he hopes to find a cure for "The Mark" , to wipe out the fear and uncertainty attached to a sense of mortality that's born with the icon on their wrists. Feeling responsible for, and the need to atone for the emergence and ultimate threat of "duplicates" that are unable to breed but can replicate, Laozi Vedas coerces Hal's girlfriend Ama Clark into going to Kepler with a group of specialists to discover why no one in Keplerian society bear a mark. Desperate as the political atmosphere on earth declines Laozi persuades a forlorn Hal into disguising himself and travelling through a portal to further the work of the specialists, never expecting that conflict and danger will follow.

Uniquely imaginative Owen H. Lawrence not only creates an Earth stricken by a sense of inevitability with the inception of a "Mark" that determines a person's life span, but also with "duplicates" who can replicate and could destroy mankind's existence. Then with vivid imagery he designs a contrasting planet with a distinctive culture, structure and political system that holds the key to a cure. The plot twists and turns as events progress, action and suspense building especially when the duplicates begin an active rebellion that could spread to the peaceful Keplerian world. With clever dexterity the author shines a light on many of the issues, ideas and comfortable beliefs our modern world clings to, not only questioning their validity but offering them as food for thought.

The characters like the plot are well-developed and complex each one changing with the challenges they face. Hal the Forty is a talented artist recognized for his potential and vision. Sent to Kepler as Liam Self, he's an inquisitive, pragmatic and determined social scientist with a positive attitude. Ama Clark, haunted by the tragic death of her parents and coerced into leaving her soul mate is a talented but reserved pianist with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. In Kepler Ama becomes introspective, confident and more relaxed, expanding her talent to other musical venues. Among other characters in this story who add to its passion, energy and drama are wealthy Laozi Vedas a brilliant man of vision and the enigmatic and egotistical Jabir ibn Al-Zargali.

With its aliens, terrorism and insatiable hunger to save mankind, this book is captivating from the first page to the last and I highly recommend it.
