About this listen

It is the year 2116. Following climate crisis, over-population, government overreach, civil uprisings, and a complete breakdown of society, a new dystopian society has emerged to replace what once was— with a catch: At age 21, everyone's life is suddenly over! Logan-3 has been trained to kill— born and bred from conception to be the best of the best to hunt down resisters. But his time is short and before his life ends, he's got one final mission: Find and destroy Sanctuary, a fabled haven for those who choose to defy the system. When Logan meets and falls in love with Jessica, he begins to question the very system he swore to protect, and soon they're both running for their lives.

Having seen the film, and the TV series first, I read the book already know what a sandman looks like, and the domes. The book takes you on a discovery behind the sandman's choice, truth or lies, and his growing relationship with Jessica. A chase to start, that leads into a violent escape and a surprising ending.

I was intrigued by the concept but would have preferred more content about how this maximum of age 21 rule came to be and the impact of it. There was a little too much focus on action I feel and the intrigue of the concept could have been played to more. The character development wasn't brilliant but there were some interesting plotlines. Overall a decent sci-fi and the fact the narrator was the author also added to the enjoyment for me.
