Innerworld: A Satire

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

Just because you're 12 and growing ancient by the minute doesn't mean you can't save two worlds at once. Peter Harrison, who is mercilessly teased by his schoolmates for having digestive trouble, thus his nickname of Potty, is thrown down a well by the same said schoolmates and left alone. He finds out that the well is a magical portal to another dimension, in which magic thrives, the entire world is living and organic, and the people are under a terrible oppression by a deceptive and cunning magician named Politikus Mediosus. Peter is told he must defeat the magician to save his own world, and in doing so, will save Innerworld, the name of the magical land he is in. However, he first must find and empty three magic vessels before he can defeat the evil Mediosus, and time is running out, for Peter is growing very old and has only one week to save both worlds. This reads like a cross between C.S.Lewis and Douglas Adams.

An enjoyable read that seems childish to start, but grows up with the main character. They writers style was reminiscent L. Frank Baum's to start with, but the tone and style appeared to change as the story progressed. Entertaining, kept my interest til the end. I'm interested in seeing more of Mr. Egan's work.

I must say toward the end of the book there were some issues with like a quick change ...

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
