The Collective

Science Is Stranger Than Fiction

De: J F Olazabal

Narrado por: Paul Mclaughlin

Science says the Collective is the perfect society, where every day is sunny, and no wind blows. Science says all the animals are gone. Science says the accident in the fields couldn’t have happened…

…but Science is stranger than fiction.

Iago is an accomplished young Operator, harvesting corn in the name of the Collective – a hi-tech orphanage thousands of miles from civilization.

After a chance encounter with Javier and Kraken – a pair of wayward boys who have escaped a brutal prison known as the Village – Iago is beginning to question his reality. Now, he must survive the cruelties of the Protocol, and discover the terrible secrets of the Collective: a long-dead trillionaire with a grim warning, a super-mind that controls fate, and a plague that kills only men.

‘The Collective’ is a darkly subversive tale of humanity’s far future – a dystopia warped by perverted medicine. Fans of Brave New World, The Hunger Games, and The Handmaid’s Tale are sure to enjoy J F Olazabal’s debut novel!

Captivating Story

I’m a sci-fi fan, and loved the world building and mythology of The Collective. It's an intricate and engrossing world. There was something timeless about the words and narration too. Good energy from the narrator, handled the vast amount of characters well. Loved his choices for Kraken and his side kick. Hoping there is a sequel?
