★★★★ A Four Star Techno Thriller ... "Readers' Favorite" Daniel Raye was just sixteen-years-old when he walked in on a mob hit against his father. Brutally beaten and left for dead, Daniel awakens in a hospital finding himself blind and with amnesia. Placed in the FBI's witness protection program, Daniel is relocated to Northern California where he's given residence with a long, lost Aunt who runs a bio-tech firm called Nanobytes. Over time, Daniel rebuilds his life, but as fate would have it comes under the scrutiny of the mob once again-but not before his Aunt finds a cure for his blindness. Using a radical untested procedure incorporating robotic nanites spliced with the DNA from animals and insects, Daniel is injected with a serum that only a mad scientist could create.
Does it work?

Better than anyone imagined.

Original Concept, Fun and Fast Paced Read!

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2023

Great story - very original! I don't want to give anything away, but it was a fast read and perfect for an engaging, fun read. The author clearly has lived in the Las Vegas area (or did an immense amount of research!) because he's one of the few that gets the details right and really gives his characters an authentic world to live in. Will be reading his other stories next!

Nanovision is an outstanding science fiction blended with fantasy, I loved the twists and turns most. The thrills, suspense and the exceptional presentation were amazing to read. I could not put the book down until the end.

The character development was fabulous and Paul T Harry wrote this book so well. The story line is very engaging and exciting. The invention, Daniel's aunt tried to conduct was shocking; but I liked the X-ray vision developed by Daniel. His purpose to develop it was really impressive.

It was a great Sci-Fi which I enjoyed a lot and completed reading so fast. I can't recommend enough!

Interesting, fast-paced sci-fi

Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2015

**Since writing my review, the synopsis has been shortened. I think this new synopsis would definitely have made me enjoy this book even more!**

It's been a while since I've read a straight sci-fi novel. Lately, it's been sci-fi mixed with fantasy, or more of a space opera. So I was pretty excited to be able to read Nanovision - how cool does x-ray vision sound?! What I got though, was so much more.

Most of this book doesn't really focus on the extraordinary vision that Daniel ends up with. Which, to me, was a little bit of a disappointment, but at least it kept things moving along and exciting. Well, mostly. Especially if you don't read the synopsis very closely. Because the synopsis gives away at least 60% of the plot and I really hate when that happens. Like I wish it had stopped with the x-ray vision and just mentioned a little bit of the mob stuff, or maybe mentioned the mob stuff and just briefly touched on nanovision. I don't know, I just think I would have enjoyed it more if I hadn't known EXACTLY what was going to happen.

But, aside from that, it was still one heck of a ride. I don't read many mob books, but Mickey was absolutely terrifying. I would NOT want to be the one on the run from him, and I'd be so scared if I realized he was coming after me again. That being said, I did think it was way too easy for Mickey to find Daniel after the fact. I'm pretty sure the Witness Protection Program works better than that, but who knows what can happen when the mob gets involved. Everything just seemed too... convenient? I think that's a good word for it.

The science was really interesting, and I loved that Nano-Bytes is such an animal-friendly place. I'm glad they only test on injured animals to make them better, and don't hurt them in order to have something to fix. I probably would have given up on the book immediately if that was the case though, so I'm glad I didn't have to throw it across the room and curse at it. I did give it quite the side-eye before Ethyl explains though!

My favorite scenes were probably the ones in the casino, as I could definitely tell that a lot of care and knowledge went into them. They're so detailed and were exactly what I imagined a casino to be like! I loved how Daniel used his new-found abilities in the casino, and still played the fool. It was hilarious!

Overall, this was a pretty decent book. I think a lot of my frustration with it came from the synopsis being too long and not quite enough of the science, but I think that boils down to personal preference and that many people would still enjoy this book. If you like your sci-fi mixed with the mob, suspense, and a little gambling definitely get your hands on Nanovision ASAP! I'd give it a 3/5.

Fun and Inventive Story

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2014

This is a fun read with a few good twists to keep you guessing. Although it is promoted as a young-adult novel, so was the "Hunger Games", and we know how popular with adults that book-trilogy was. The author presents what starts out as a Las Vegas mob story, leaves you hanging as the protagonist is whisked away to a new location, and then takes it full-circle with a medical-miracle and a return to the casinos and of course the bad guys.

This author has it going. I was hooked from beginning to end. I love it when the underdog wins for a change. Almost like Rocky! I will be looking for other books by this author.

Posted first to Blog Critics as Book Review: 'Nanovision,' A Technological Thriller by Paul T. Harry.

In Nanovision by Paul T. Harry, we are introduced to the subject of nanotechnology or nanomedicine, the medical application of that technology.

A devastating murder and betrayal leaves one person dead and a young teen without both his father and vision due to the fire used to cover up that murder. Daniel wakes up in the hospital with no vision and no memories. He doesn’t remember his life before his pain and has nowhere to go.

Yet upon further search, an aunt that has cut off ties long in the past is located. She is involved in the field of Nanomedicine and works in research. Not sure she is capable of taking on such a tragic young man, she nevertheless does her best. Ethyl Santini is raising her granddaughter and leads a very busy life of research in a nanolab where she is at work on regeneration. The testing of animals has proved to be extremely workable, and she has been able to save many that would not have lived otherwise.

In her heart she knows that she must help Daniel, and while she had not been aware she had a nephew, she is up to the challenge. Armed with her granddaughter’s approval she brings him into her family. Aware that while to the outside world he has been declared dead, there are concerns that he may still not be safe.

The fit is perfect and Ethyl is thrilled to find Daniel so likable and as he bonds with her younger charge life seems to be just right. Yet now her lab is in trouble and she is uneasy about her own research. Knowing she could be ousted at any time, she does the unimaginable. She puts together a new formula for her own nephew. With his agreement, they begin a series of doses to see if nanotechnology can help his eyesight. None of them are prepared for the changes.

As Daniel’s regeneration begins, his memory resurfaces, as well as anger at the death of his father and the assault on himself. Heading back to his home he is after the very man who changed his life. Judy, The FBI special investigator that followed the crime and found his aunt is notified and she begins the hunt to find him, for she knows more about this crime then he understands. Can she locate him before he finds those responsible? She is very aware that if he comes upon them first, he will not survive for they have been in the business of death for a long time. With his sudden disappearance, can she find him before it is too late?

Harry has given us characters that are interesting and likable. His use of technology is an interesting foil and creates a plausible storyline. The action and undertakings seem very real and are much like some of the crimes we see reported in the news, yet he takes us on a rocky journey of home and nanomedicine.

His interpretation of the reactions as Daniel’s blindness recedes is amazing and the action and interplay is sharp. You find the possibilities for exciting and strange. He has given us an intriguing thriller full of danger and excitement, and threaded it with the possibility of medical miracles.

If you enjoy action, mystery and suspense with just a touch of the unbelievable you will find this a great book for your library. Once you begin, plan on a full day of reading, this work is difficult to put down.
