About this listen

"This satire offers a thought-provoking and scathing indictment that may prod readers to examine the more sinister possibilities of corporate - and media-dominated culture." (Publishers Weekly (starred review)

For Titus and his friends, it started out like any ordinary trip to the moon - a chance to party during spring break and play with some stupid low-grav at the Ricochet Lounge. But that was before the crazy hacker caused all their feeds to malfunction, sending them to the hospital to lie around with nothing inside their heads for days. And it was before Titus met Violet, a beautiful, brainy teenage girl who has decided to fight the feed and its omnipresent ability to categorize human thoughts and desires.

Following in the footsteps of George Orwell, Anthony Burgess, and Kurt Vonnegut Jr., M. T. Anderson has created a not-so-brave new world - and a smart, savage satire that has captivated listeners with its view of an imagined future that veers unnervingly close to the here and now.

Critic reviews

"Anderson deftly combines elements of today's teen scene...with imaginative and disturbing fantasy twists...This satire offers a thought-provoking and scathing indictment that may prod readers to examine the more sinister possibilities of corporate- and media-dominated culture." ( Publishers Weekly)
"A gripping, intriguing and unique cautionary novel." ( School Library Journal)
"This brilliant production for older teen listeners enhances Anderson's portrait of a world gone sour, in which even the adults have forgotten how to use language, and everything is dying, including the kids." ( AudioFile)

Great, and frightening, premise....

Feed is a great story, and the world is eerily close to our own. This could be the story of my grandchildren....

Production values are high and the narrator is very good. The slang language is easy to grasp - much friendlier than Nadsat.

My only crit is that we don't find get a resolution as such. I'd love a sequel.

Thought provoking

Particularly good as a voiced book given the subject matter. Worth encouraging teenagers to listen to, particularly those whose world is lived online.

Smart, funny but so sad

Don’t be put off by the surfer dude voice - it grows on you and works well with the story. The narration is excellent in this regard.

A great story, a great read and a smart premise. I finished the book feeling very sad, but don’t let that take anything away from the great read which it is.
