Athos Freeland is on a mission. Desperate to escape the reality bubble he grew up in, he meets a shadowy group called The Syndicate, who are dedicated to the establishment of Temporary Autonomous Zones - pirate spaces where freestyle creativity and euphoric celebration forge intense moments of freedom.
Trusting chaos theory and self organizing systems to drive a utopian ideal, they carve an experimental vortex of community, politics and economics. With the open source internet mirroring this philosophy on a global scale, Athos is soon drawn to Silicon Valley and its potential to shape new social and cultural dynamics.
From drug deals to data mining operations, druids to venture capitalists, *The Syndicate *is a whirlwind journey through the paradoxes of idealism. Bursting with irreverent humour, caustic observation and a crackling energy, it distils the story of a generation into one barnstorming adventure.
