Here's what readers have to say about this book....
I read Hordes of Envy while on holiday and it was a fantastic choice! From start to finish, it was an intriguing read that really held my attention. Dean Hunt has crafted a clever and thought provoking story the explores what our future might look like but in an extreme sense. The book dives into a world where wealth has become extremely concentrated, showing how that imbalance shapes society and the people within it. It’s a fascinating exploration of envy, power and the consequences of unchecked inequality. Hunt manages to blend suspense, imagination and social commentary in a way that feels both entertaining and uncomfortably plausible. It made me think about the direction our world could take if certain ideas or emotions, like envy were pushed to their limits. Overall, Hordes of Envy is a gripping and intelligent novel that left a lasting impression. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys speculative fiction that makes you reflect on the world around you.
