AFTER 20 YEARS OF PEACE, COLLAPSE IS ON THE HORIZON. WILL THE NAMELESS SON OF MAGNUS AND MARIAM SURVIVE THE DESTRUCTION?
OR WILL HE BE JUST ANOTHER VICTIM OF THE BRUTAL LESS YEAR?
Magnus and Mariam never named their son. Why name a thing that may not live to earn it? Tucked away on the broiling edge of failed civilization, their reclusive child is left to fumble his way through a dangerous and cruel world that is only going to get crueler. Because a Less Year is coming. For the first time in twenty years, no trade along the world's last road is to be permitted. No trees are to be felled, no stones quarried. For an entire year, every village and town must isolate. So the land can heal. So the population can dwindle. As resources wither and betrayal looms, the nameless Boy must embrace his parents' secret survivalist ways lest he succumb to a world set on destroying itself. Because less is coming. It's coming for everyone.WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:

★★★★★ The Roads meets (a way better) Hunger Games ★★★★★ Cruel, violent, clever edge-of-your-seat reading. ★★★★★ Oldfield's unique style and thoughtful prose make The Less Year impossible to put down ★★★★★ Exciting, dark and gritty. THE LESS YEAR is a gritty, grim, and violent post-apocalyptic adventure. If you enjoyed dystopian books like Edge of Collapse, The Hunger Games, Battle Royale, The Road, or One Second After then you'll love THE LESS YEAR!
