I mentioned Jeff Burk's parody novel Shatnerquake in a Whiz of the Web column a few weeks back. I thought the concept (not to mention the cover) was pretty brilliant, so I jumped at the chance to read and review the book when it was offered to me. The novel is set in the near future, when both technology and fandom have advanced to rather extreme degrees. There now exists a sect of rabid fans of Bruce Campbell, known as Campbellians, who cut off their right hands in remembrance of one of Campbell's more famous characters. Also, something called the Network Wars led to the development of a weapon called a Fiction Bomb which can erase a piece of entertainment from reality, so no one remembers it ever existed. The Campbellians do not like William Shatner, so when the first ever ShatnerCon is organized, and includes screenings of all of Shatner's movie and television appearances, they see their chance to strike. They plant a Fiction Bomb in the theater and wait for Shatner to be erased from history. But the bomb goes haywire, and instead of Shatner's fictional characters being destroyed utterly, they're somehow given life—pushed out of fiction and into reality. Trapped now in a world where they know they don't belong, and where they're all merely copies of someone else, they become filled with rage and, in a desire for vengeance, decide to hunt down their originator—William Shatner himself—and destroy him.
