Overview

When government and corporations can read your thoughts, you have nowhere to hide... Sky Marion spends her days on the Neuronet investigating thought crimes and recommending offenders for reprogramming. It's one of the few jobs you can hold down without having to talk to people, which is just the way Sky likes it. Plus, it allows Sky to indulge in one of her favorite pastimes; listening in on the thoughts of complete strangers. Is it voyeuristic? Sure. Legal? Yup. Addictive? Just ask Sky's worried mother, Winona. But Sky's sheltered life is upended when off-world brain hackers infect over a million Earth citizens with a suicide virus, and Winona is one of the unfortunate victims. With only days until the virus destroys her mother's mind, phobia-ridden Sky must risk her life and sanity and infiltrate the lawless Moon-now the independent planet of Apollo-to track down the hackers and find the cure. There, Sky will unravel a tapestry of deceit and betrayal, and find herself in the middle of a hidden war of civilizations, with humanity the ultimate prize. Neurotopia: Geppetto's Chains is a fast-paced science fiction thriller set in a fascinating future dominated by neurotechnology and those who would use it to control the most valuable resource known to humankind: information. INDIE READER APPROVED (Rating 4.5): 'NEUROTOPIA: Geppetto's Chains is an exciting science fiction adventure exploring the concepts of interplanetary politics, self-sacrifice, and personal freedom, complete with a neurotic female protagonist, androids, space fights, mind control, and off-world colonies that science fiction fans will enjoy'. MANYBOOKS REVIEW: 'Finding a good science fiction novel that doesn't just resort to lazy cliches or established tropes can be tricky, which is why Neurotopia is such a breath of fresh air for the genre. While Neurotopia starts off a little slow once the pace picks up readers are in for a wild ride. It's a thought-provoking novel and a lot of the technology featured in the story is all too plausible given the current state of the world. This book features so many great ideas and plot twists that it could easily have been turned into a trilogy. Instead, the author has managed to deliver a story that is fast-paced yet doesn't skimp on world-building and character depth.' What readers are saying: 'One of the best sci-fi books I've read in a very long time.' (Amazon reviewer) 'A wild ride from start to finish set in a world of telepathy and neural implants.' (Goodreads reviewer) 'Techno thriller which keeps you turning the pages.' (Amazon reviewer) 'One of those stories you wish wouldn't end!' (Goodreads reviewer) 'I've been trying to find another one of those books that grips your attention enough that you don't want to put it down for a while (I read roughly 4-6 books a week) and this did it!!' (Amazon reviewer)

Author Information

Tony Mohorovich is the author of a solitary SciFi novel, Neurotopia: Geppetto's Chains, but he has a thousand others in his head, which he will eventually write when scientists work out how to extend human life indefinitely, or create multiple AI copies of the human brain... or cure procrastination. Until then, Tony will continue to assert that he focuses on quality rather than quantity. A recovering lawyer and desk-jockey, Tony has attempted to ignore the urge to write about made-up things on numerous occasions. He remains hopeful for a pharmaceutical cure. Tony lives in Melbourne, Australia, and is tolerated by his wife and children.
