Fortis Publishing is delighted to announce that 'The Last Toll Collector' by author S.S. Turner has been officially entered for the 2025 Booker Prize.

This extraordinary novel poses a profound and unsettling question: What would you do if artificial intelligence outperformed you so completely that it rendered your role in society obsolete?

Enter the life of Valerie Tobruk. Once a toll collector on San Francisco’s iconic Golden Gate Bridge, Valerie's world changed forever in 2013 when her job was automated out of existence. She watched helplessly as artificial intelligence infiltrated industry after industry, rendering her—and millions of others—obsolete. Over the years, Valerie has searched tirelessly for a sense of purpose, only to face rejection after rejection as she discovers that machines now excel in nearly every task once performed by humans. The result? A spiraling sense of uselessness, isolation, and disconnection from the very fabric of society.

Desperate to escape this existential void, Valerie sets off for the Westfjords, an unspoiled and sparsely populated region of Iceland, where raw nature offers solace to those seeking to disappear. Here, amidst snow-capped mountains and fjords carved by time, she stumbles upon the ruins of an abandoned herring factory. It is within these crumbling walls that Valerie takes her first steps toward reclaiming her agency. She declares the creation of an independent micronation—Tobruk—a haven where people are celebrated not for their productivity or efficiency, but for their humanity.

What begins as a solitary refuge soon becomes a gathering place for others like Valerie—those left behind by a world that prizes algorithms over authenticity. Each new arrival brings their own story of struggle, resilience, and redemption. Together, they build a fragile community, grappling with the challenges of self-governance, resourcefulness, and the unforgiving Icelandic wilderness.

Yet, Tobruk's greatest test lies ahead. As winter descends and the region is plunged into weeks of darkness, the citizens are forced to confront not only the external dangers of isolation but also the internal fears they’ve carried with them. What emerges is a tale of survival, self-discovery, and the unyielding power of human connection in a world dominated by artificial intelligence.

The Last Toll Collector is a hauntingly beautiful exploration of the human spirit in an age of rapid technological advancement. It asks us to consider: In a world increasingly dictated by machines, what does it truly mean to be human?
