Swarm

"Truly chilling, Flynn's stories will stick with you long after reading."-Matthew Hutton, The Scare Room Podcast The town of Drachton is crumbling, with crime and violence perpetuating around the clock. Prisons are at bursting point, and morale is at an all-time low. The government's answer is Swarm-a revolutionary prison unlike any other. Swarm is a correctional facility that harnesses the power of the inmates' subconscious minds, siphoning the collective neural wisdom for the benefit of the town. The facility is a work of genius, and the town soon begins to prosper. But how long will the prosperity last? When cutting-edge technology merges with humankind's ancient biological roots, what kind of monster will emerge? Drawing ideas from deep psychology and modern neuroscience, James Flynn has created a dystopian, apocalyptic novella that pushes the boundaries of science fiction. Swarm is essential reading for any serious sci-fi enthusiast. Are you ready to get plugged?
