The Testing by Joelle Charbonneau
Cia Vale is one of the elite few from the colonies of the United Commonwealth, chosen to undergo a rigorous set of tests to assess the logic, knowledge, cunning of candidates with potential to become leaders in this post-world war dystopian society. Right answers mean success, while mistakes can lead to elimination or the ultimate penalty – death. Cia must learn who she can trust in this survival-of-the-fittest thriller if she wants to pass. Look for the sequel in the fall.
The Testing, Joelle Charbonneau, $22. Available at Indigo.ca and Amazon.ca.
