Twisted facts and bent truths take center stage in this sequel to Verify, which #1 New York Times bestselling author Ellen Hopkins calls “a thought-provoking tale of intrigue, beautifully crafted.” Meri Buckley has lost everything. She lost her mother to a fight much bigger than herself. Her father to grief, fear, and denial. And the truth—to an overbearing government that insists that censorship and secrecy is the only path to peace. But though Meri and her band of truth-seeking Stewards did lose the first battle in their quest to enlighten the public, they have not yet lost the war. Meri can start the revolution she seeks, if the powerful figures who profit from the status quo don’t find her—and kill her first.

Graylem was born to expect a life of thievery, but superior swordsmanship and a desire for something better had long fueled his dreams to become a member of a noble family’s guard. But when his sister Deevana’s latest scheme forces them to leave their home—and all memories of their life in Blackthorn Keep—behind, they chart a southern course towards a new life in Irae, by way of the magnificent Garden City. Disguised as northern nobles, they quickly find themselves caught up in the mysterious politics of Eden’s royal family—and infatuated by its newest member, the beautiful seeress Imogen. A member of Eden’s guard offers Graylem the chance to prove his worth, but his brutal trial for entry into the guard is waylaid by the appearance of Prince Andreus and Princess Carys. Graylem may be a simple man, but when he sees the royal siblings conferring in secret, he knows that all is not well in the Palace of the Winds—and before long, he learns that whatever darkness is lurking in the city’s walls could mean devastation for his family… and for Eden.

Porque en la Universidad, nada ni nadie es lo que parece y a final de curso no cuenta qué nota has sacado, sino si has sobrevivido. " La Prueba es un thriller escalofriante y tortuoso que todos los fans de Los Juegos del Hambre, simplemente, devorarán." Jonathan Maberry "Entrenada para confiar en su ingenio, Cia debe sobrevivir gracias a su coraje y sus instintos, incluso si ello supone seguir a su corazón hacia un peligro aún mayor. Indispensable para los fans de las distopías, La Prueba aúna suspense, pasión y traición contra un mundo herido y brutal." Sophie Littlefield, autora de Unforsaken And Hanging By A Thread "La Prueba es compleja y simple al mismo tiempo. Acelerará tu pulso. Muy ameno de leer. Lo he disfrutado mucho, y estoy deseando la secuela." Bibliopunkkreads "Las ideas que engloban La Prueba hacen que la trama sea inteligente, enrevesada y aterradora al mismo tiempo." Heise Reads & Recommends "Cia es una de las mejores heroínas que he visto nunca. No sólo es una chica dura, ¡también es increíblemente inteligente! Me ha encantado durante todo el libro." K-Books "Mientras lo leía y pasaba cada página, una cosa venía a mi mente: ¡es incluso mejor que Los Juegos del Hambre!" ISTYRIA Book Blog
