The Feed: A chilling, dystopian page-turner with a twist that will make your head explode de Nick Clark Windo

The Feed: A chilling, dystopian page-turner with a twist that will make your head explode

Autor Nick Clark Windo
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 aug 2018

The Feed is a unique, thought-provoking and utterly addictive post-apocalyptic thriller that fans of The Girl With All the Gifts and The Passage will love. SJ Watson says he was 'hooked from the very beginning and haunted for days' and CJ Tudor was captivated by 'a twist that will make your head explode'.

The Feed was everything, until it was gone.

Tom and Kate have managed to survive in an unconnected world, but the search for their abducted daughter reveals what they have lost.

Without the Feed, no one knows who you are. No one knows who to trust.

Without it, how can their daughter be saved?

What readers are saying about The Feed:

'Absolutely terrifying. It is incredibly real and wholly recognisable'

'Gripping and exciting and all too close for comfort. Very realistic and beautifully written'

'A harrowing tale, at times moving, at times thoughtful, at times harsh. It will keep you coming back for more with characters that feel real, a vivid landscape and stellar thought-provoking story'

'This is not a book you can start reading and put back down so be prepared to lose some sleep over this one!'

Recenzii

The Feed is a chilling, dystopian page-turner - I was hooked from the very beginning and haunted for days after finishing it.
[A] brilliant, highly charged debut
Combining thriller with futuristic nightmare, Nick Clark Windo's debut novel presents an all too believable version of a near future . . . ambitious and thought-provoking
Easily one of the most powerful and disturbing novels of the year . . . intensely original and constantly surprising . . . a visceral experience
[An] admirable debut . . . succeeds as a sober, semi-satirical commentary on our connectivity-obsessed times
What a riveting and original novel! The Feed is frighteningly believable and disturbing and I loved the way I was pulled into its dark reality, so convincing that it's almost unbearable. The Feed is one of those rare novels that changes your mind as you read it. It is such a brilliant exploration of the hive-mind, taken to chilling extremes which almost destroy humanity.
I really enjoyed it and what a great ending!
An interesting post-apocalyptic science fiction novel that builds to a climax that embraces the three Hs - haunting, horrific and perhaps, hopeful
Nick Clark Windo's captivating debut is a dark, thought-provoking read. Tap into The Feed and it will change your world
A really clever and original book. A tense thriller wrapped up in a scarily plausible dystopian nightmare, with a twist that will make your head explode!
A tense thriller with a strong vein of the speculative. And that ending . . . blimey!
I devoured this story barely putting it down . . . Highly recommended
Splendid concept, beautifully and horrifyingly realised
Terrifyingly, brilliantly plausible

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The Feed is accessible everywhere, by everyone, at any time, linking us instantaneously to all information and global events as they break. Every interaction, every emotion, every image can be shared through it; it is the essential tool everyone relies on to know and understand the thoughts and feelings of anyone in the world.
Tom and Kate use the Feed, but Tom has resisted its addiction, which makes him suspect to his family. After all, his father created it. But that opposition to constant connection serves Tom and Kate well when the Feed goes black after a horrific tragedy shatters the world as they know it.
The Feed’s collapse leaves people scavenging to survive. Finding food is truly a matter of life and death. Minor ailments, previously treatable, now kill. While the loss of the Feed has demolished the trappings of the modern world, it has also eroded trust. In a world where survival of the fittest is a way of life, there is no one to depend upon except yourself . . . and maybe even that is no longer true.
Tom and Kate have managed to protect themselves and their family. But then their six-year-old daughter, Bea, goes missing. How do you begin to look for someone in a world without technology? And what happens when you can no longer be certain that the people you love are really who they claim to be?

Notă biografică

Nick Clark Windo studied English literature at Cambridge and acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and he now works as a film producer and communications coach. The Feed, his first thriller, was inspired by his realization that people are becoming increasingly disconnected from one another, as well as by philosophical questions about identity and memory. He lives in London with his wife and daughter.
