This was a really enjoyable set, and as I read the individual stories back to back, it was very cool to get an insight as to how 12 different authors imagined dystopian futures. I'll say a few words about my favourite ones here.

The Sigma Surrogate - JT Lawrence - JT Lawrence is an incredible writer, and this story is no different. Set in the When Tomorrow Calls (trilogy) universe, I'd highly recommend reading all of those as well.

Feed 1 - Nicole Grotepas - Gosh, I could just imagine this one happening. A world where everything you do is on camera, and anyone could be watching... Like Big Brother on steroids.

Cheatc0de - Michael Campling - OK, as a gamer myself I was always going to love this one. A hint of Ready Player One, but darker.

The Legacy - Melissa Delport - So much to love about this one. I don't really want to give anything away, but suffice to say the outcome was not what I expected. Probably going to have to pick up the sequel at some point!

This collection of twelve (12), yes twelve dystopian novels is absolutely mind-blowing. I have quite a diverse list of "favorite" authors and it is amazingly awesome that four (4) of them have a story included within these pages. Which, of course, shows that I have excellent taste in my adored wordsmiths 🙄. I loved each and every one of them and highly recommend it, which, in my experience is rare that I feel that way about all of them. To be perfectly honest I have to admit that I had already read five (5) of these novels. Please do not think that I am suggesting that one of these is below my standards. The one author is not yet on my "fav" list mainly because I have only read this one story, so far. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. So, stop wasting your valuable reading time with my review and go get this huge bundle of entertainment. Oh, you might want to plan on less sleep for a few days.
