Joelle Charbonneau's award-winning YA dystopian series The Testing is packed full of trials, tests and sacrifices, featuring a strong, bold and determined sixteen-year-old protagonist.

Living in a world that's nothing more than a charred wasteland after The Seven Stages War, sixteen-year-old Cia is selected to join an elite group of the next generation's chosen to rebuild society. Initially, she couldn't be prouder to have been selected, but, as she overcomes the brutal and deadly trials, she begins to realise that there's an ugly truth behind this government, and only she can stop it.

This series draws on many themes of the dystopic genre, including but not limited to human nature, power, society and trust.

This high-octane, dystopian YA adventure is perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent. If you've already read this and are looking for something just as exciting, you should read these 10 Books to Read After The Hunger Games or our 10 Best Dystopian Novels!
