5.0 out of 5 stars Attention MST3K Fans - The best/worst sci-fi book ever!, Jun 22 2004
This review is from: Innerverse (Paperback)
I bought a dog eared copy of this years ago and stupidly got rid of it when I moved to the UK so now I'm ordering it again just for the comic value. fans of MST3K will absolutely adore this book as it's seriously some of the worst sci-fi I've ever written. As an added bonus it has a sex scene that climaxes with the line "He did the thing." You just can't ask for anything better.

(...) A great read when you don't want to think and can't find any B-Grade movies on TV

4.0 out of 5 stars Dangers of Nanotech, May 18 2004

This review is from: Innerverse (Paperback)
After many stops and starts I managed to find the time to finish INNERVERSE by John DeChancie. This book is different form his other works. It is not the star-flung adventure of the Starrigger books, light fantasy of the Castle series or even the suburban fantasy of MAGICNET. No, INNERVERSE is more 1984 disguised as WALDEN TWO, or something like that.

Enter Special Operative Frank. He has been assigned to enter the Federation, the old Eastern portion of the United States. Twenty years previously all communication was cut off and all attempts to discover what is going on have failed. Satellites show active cities but no air transportation. The secret is Innerverse, a nanotechnology for regulating behavior. Microscopic machines in your blood stream and other areas that condition you against negative emotions, thoughts and impulses. Frank discovers a society without any apparent leaders or government. People just follow their orders and go about their lackluster days with no thought of the future. Frank needs to report back on his findings but he has been given Innerverse and it prevents thoughts of leaving.

What follows is a series of tense actions mixed with social commentary and several interesting characters. If you are looking for something resembling a previous DeChancie novel then don't look at this one. For those looking for an interesting suspense story or a nanotech story then you should take a look at this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars this pleases me ^_^, May 27 2011
By Ginger Ninja - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Innerverse (Paperback)
I read this back in middle school, which probably wasn't appropriate considering the sex scenes, but this book is fantastic. I found the plot quite riveting and at times very disturbing, feeling intensely the stress of not being able to control one's own actions while under the influence of nanomachines. It's not very well known, which surprises me considering how vigorously I read this novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars An eerie science fiction audiobook, Nov 11 2002
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Innerverse (Audio Cassette)
Innerverse by John DeChancie is an eerie science fiction audiobook (5 hours, 4 cassettes) drama about a nation, once part of the United States, now utterly controlled by nanotechnology that absolutely dictates the will of its zombie-like citizens. DeChancie story is brought to life in a full-cast dramatization presentation that offers the listeners a frightening glimpse of the logical extension of totalitarian power, and a powerful dark dystopia of technology at its worst, Innerverse is a captivating listening experience and highly recommended for science fiction fans and community library collections.
