The Troll: Volume 1
This is not a story of destined heroes.
In a world ruled by surveillance, one unlikely misfit just became the spark of a revolution.
In the near future, a mind-linked internet called Psi has done the ended crime, eliminated war, and silenced humanity. The internet isn’t on your phone anymore—it’s in your head. Every thought is watched. Every action, recorded. Control is total. Hope is buried.
It’s peace by way of surveillance—and the world has never been more obedient.
But beneath this eerie calm lies something fear. And rebellion. The few who resist are erased or hunted.
Buried deep in the surveillance state is The Troll—an infamous online provocateur living alone in a repurposed warehouse, spending his days mocking the system with caustic wit and brutal honesty. He doesn’t believe in revolution. He barely believes in people. But when a stranger publicly challenges the all-powerful Moderator to let a random citizen try to restore the world to what it once was, The Troll is chosen—and thrust into a game he never asked to play, with stakes far greater than he ever imagined.
With no skills. No courage. And a world that demands both.
Now he's thrust into a cross-country chase where the battlefield isn't just physical—it’s digital, emotional, and ideological. Loyalty is programmed. Rebellion is suicide. Paired with one of the last free rebels, The Guide, and a mysterious woman named Iris, The Troll must survive a gauntlet of Psi-controlled bounty hunters with their own techno-abilities in a dystopian survival game.
But he's not here to save the world. Not yet.
First, he has to decide whether it's worth saving.
As alliances fracture and secrets unravel, The Troll becomes more than a pawn in someone else’s revolution—he becomes its face. But to lead a movement, he'll first have to figure out who he is and what he stands for.
The Troll is a blistering blend of dystopian thriller and apocalyptic fiction. With breakneck pacing, morally complex characters, and an eye on the dangers of unchecked control, this isn’t just another resistance story—it’s a warning. A rebellion. A revelation.
If you like your heroes messy, your villains cruel, and your revolutions full of strategy, sabotage, and sarcasm—this is the dystopian action adventure you’ve been waiting for. Packed with adrenaline-fueled escapes, complex moral dilemmas, and unforgettable characters, The Troll proves that in a system that punishes rebellion with silence… one voice can still echo.
Even if it’s sarcastic.
The Troll is the first volume in a darkly clever dystopian survival game—a bold, genre-bending apocalyptic fiction book series that fuses satire with suspense.
If you're ready to laugh, rage, and root for the most improbable revolutionary in fiction, start The Troll today.
