About this listen

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!

Thoroughly enjoyable.

While not my usual genre, so glad I listened to the recommendation to read this. Beautifully written book. Excellent plot, great characters and the world in which it's set, is vividly brought to life.

If you're a fan of dystopian, Sci-fi, Adventure etc, this book is a must read. If not, I'd still recommend it! Once you start, it's hard to put down/stop listening to. I downloaded the book as well as the audio version, quite enjoyed being able to switch between reading and listening. The narration is excellent.

The author has left me wanting more...
