Publisher's summary

Embrace! Respect! Submit! The State is the last and only symbol of control in the not-so-distant future. Fear is the only existence most know. Servitude is the brand upon all. The Resistance is the last, and only semblance of hope; of freedom. Journey with the struggles of the protagonist, Agent 216, as he makes the tumultuous transition from top Agent of the State to the eventual leader of the Resistance.

It is a journey hard-fought, wrought with love and hate, death and life, violence and compassion, loss and gain. Yet, with determination and purpose he, as all within the Resistance, continues to fight for the one thing essential to existence - freedom. Will the Resistance prevail? Or will the State?

With Purpose

I thought at first the this would be an exciting story with some deep meanings within the story line WRONG.

I have never heard the sentence "with purpose" so many times in the same chapter let alone in a whole book. At first it seemed that the story was OK and it was the actor / reader was the one letting it down, but I. now know he was working hand in hand with the author were working together to achieve the same outcome :-)

There is no back story to understand where the "State" came from or the size. It must be small as the hero's seem to be able to fight back with limited manpower living in an underground cave with limited electricity but able to support farms and herds of cattle.

To be fair it is not a terrible story nor is the reader horrendous (Both are better that whatever I could ever do) but you will need to persevere to listen to the whole book.

Good luck
