I'm cool with anencephalic humans/clones, with or without genetic engineering to reduce rejection, being used for spare parts.
Have you read House of the Scorpion?
I have not. Looks like it's YA, which I tend to steer away from. Is it full of tropes and oversimplification like Divergent or Mockingjay stuff, or is it better than that?
I mean its alright it just covers this topic exactly while also not showing it integrated into society at large too well.
