Wow this was different and genius too, I really liked this book (well 3 books) what a great idea for a story and nothing like I’ve ever read before, a brilliant set of books and they are not to be missed!

The Many: The Complete Trilogy is comprised of The Many, Ancestral, and the European School. At the outset, we meet brother and sister, Stacey and Karl. When Stacey returns from a blind date, she begins acting strangely. Karl suspects something has happened and begins digging into the change in her behavior. I can't discuss much more without spoilers, but this is quite a wild ride! The storyline is unique, but due to sexual and graphic violence, it may not be for everyone. Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and publisher for an advanced reader copy of this book for an honest review.

I went into this one completely blind and I think that is what made my reading experience of it so much better. This is a chunk of a book given that it is three books in one but you need every one of those pages to get the story and boy is it a page turner. Don't let this one slip you by. Thank you Netgalley for an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

Very gripping, creepy and fast paced thriller. Some great twists and very much edge of the seat reading. Couldn't put it down!

This is a trilogy with a complex plot and interesting premise. Taken separately, I am not sure I would have thoroughly enjoyed either of the first two books due to disappointing character development and too many unsolved mysteries. However, taken as a whole, I thought this worked. The final installment was definitely the most successful, with a MC finally truly worth rooting for.

For readers who like secret societies, conspiracy theories (of a sort), genealogy, and those who are not squeamish about violence.

I loved this mystery story. Do you love a good suspense? I think you will like this tale. Recommend to all friends and family!

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC of this novel in exchange for my honest opinion. I was hesitant to dive into trilogy and, although some parts felt slow, it was overall a great experience!

Thank you Netgalley for the advanced readers copy of this novel in exchange for my honest opinion. The Many is a good read. There are exciting twists and turns throughout the book. Small part felt like it dragged out, but then picked back up again. Overall, a great Trilogy, and the writer kept you wanting to know more.

Book 1 Review: Bizarre, creepy, and mysterious. A unique, skin-crawly story that's not for the faint-hearted, or squeamish. Very heavy content that needs some serious trigger warnings (sexual assault, rape, death by suicide).

At around 900 pages, The Many by Nathan Field took me some time to read. It is actually a trilogy of books that includes The Many, Ancestral and The European School. Initially, Stacey, her brother Karl and Dawn are the focus; when Stacey goes on a blind date Karl notices that afterwards, her behaviour changes. As he investigates, a series of events unfold and The Many carries a warning of disturbing themes which include gore and sexual violence. Exceptionally creepy and disturbing there is a palpable predatory vibe and feel of malice aforethought. I found it rewarding, inventive and a very thrilling ride.

I received a complimentary copy of this novel at my request, published independently, via NetGalley. This review is my own unbiased opinion.

Sorry, this book is not for me. It was a good idea for a story or stories. Just didn’t like it. Just my opinion. Thank you Netflix for providing an advance copy of this book

The Many - The Complete Trilogy, is a horror/psychological series about two young people seeking revenge against members of a shadowy conspiracy known as the “Faceless Men” who destroyed their families. These books definitely need to be read in order so the box set is a good way to ensure this.
I was invited to request it via an email from NetGalley and the summary sounded intriguing, but unfortunately, while they are well written with a good blend of action, suspense and creepiness, I didn’t particularly enjoy any of them as I didn’t like any of the characters and found the focus on sexual violence, torture and cruelty too disturbing, and the overall plot too far fetched.

The first book - also called The Many - tells how Karl’s sister and Dawn’s mother both commit suicide after going on online dates. Teaming up, they discover that both women had been raped, and make it their mission to bring the perpetrators to justice - but soon discover that The Many are everywhere.
The second instalment, Ancestral, continues Karl & Dawn’s stories as they go about their revenge, but with Dawn’s fragile mental state and no one else to turn to, can they stay alive long enough to find the answers they seek.
The European School is set 14 years into the future and introduces a new character - a teenager called Elijah who is sent away to a prison-like boarding school with an unusual curriculum and terrifying secrets.

I can recommend these if you like dark twisted stories and don’t mind loose ends and a rather preposterous overall plot. Some of the characters are interesting, most make stupid mistakes over and over, and none are remotely likeable. I was hoping for a more satisfactory explanation for the whole conspiracy and was disappointed by the ending. The writing improves with each book and the ideas are original enough, but ultimately I didn’t particularly enjoy the reading experience. 2.5 rounded up.

#themany #nathanfields #trilogy a unique story, well written and a page turner. If you liked Invasion of the Body Snatchers then this is something that will suck you in. This will be unlike anything you’ve read before. #netgalley #bookstagram #readersofinstagram #netgalleyreview #reading #bookworms

It was interesting, but weird. I only finished the first book, and I felt like the story could have been more effectively told. The first book was essentially just a set up for the sequels. An interesting premise though, and I wanted to read more.

This has a pretty unique storyline. An absolute wild ride that keeps you guessing as to what is really happening.
This one is dark and twisted and filled with gore and violence so be prepared!
This one will keep your attention and you will need to keep reading just to see how it ends!

Thank you to NetGalley and Nathan Field for this E-ARC in exchange for my honest feedback and review.

This is a trilogy of three books. The Many, Ancestral, and The European School. We find Stacey and Karl. They investigate a series of events that delve into conspiracy theories.

I'm giving this book a one just because I did not finish it. The horror was too much for me and I did not complete it.

I'm conflicted. How to review this trilogy?
On the one hand it's extremely well written and a pageturner because of that, on the other hand this secret society/cult doesn't seem to have a clear purpose thus doesn't make any sense. So I persevered, hoping to find out. 900 Pages of brainwashing, hypnotism, violence and abuse to eventually inform the reader of its disturbing ideology. Had I known the outcome would be as ridiculous and unbelievable as it was, I wouldn't have bothered at all. But hey, fiction right, anything they can image goes. Xenu anyone?

Relentless paranoia, same feel as Invasion of the Body Snatchers - pulls you in and holds you there. Field does a good job of making humans the worst evil, and conspiracy like a black hole that won't let go. The backstory is rather interesting, and not expected - still come questions left, but everything works regardless.

Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for providing access to the complete The Many trilogy. This was a great fast-paced series that blended modern-day conspiracy theories with a historical bloodline that a family will stop at no lengths to preserve and grow in order to seek revenge and take over power that was stolen from them centuries ago.

What I liked about this trilogy is that it really felt like three different stories, wrapped up into one. I had no idea where it was going, but each time I thought I knew what was happening, something else would happen and a new element was introduced and I was intrigued all over again. In book one, what started out as an internet date turned rape, resulting in an uncharacteristic suicide turned into a search for the rapist to figure out what exactly happened to the victim during her time with the rapist to make her lose herself and commit suicide.

In book two, we see another victim of rape who is still recovering from flashbacks. She discovers she is pregnant, and we are taken on a journey where we wonder will she have one or won't she? Why is she being chased by faceless men? And what happens when they finally catch up to her?

In book three, fast-forward 14 years. We are introduced to Elijah, a teen boy who suddenly gets sent away to a prestigious boarding school in the US that used to be an asylum and then a prison. It still has the fence around it. Lots of strange things happen at the school. Book three brings in the most historical events, which from book review accounts are true. It includes small smatterings of information on the Romanovs and Anastasia etc. and well, everything ends up being tied up into a nice little bow... or is it? I don't think we will see a book four, but I think the author could probably make one if they really wanted to.

This is one of those stories that makes you feel weird and creepy, but it is a pretty good read. Three stories in one, so we are prepared for a long read. All three stories are wicked and twisted. My stomach never untwisted.
