Chosen Ones

This dark, complex novel rocked my heart and left me with a renewed sense that saving the world is a job that never ends. You'll never look at fantasy heroes the same way again * Charlie Jane Anders, Hugo & Nebula Award winning author of ALL THE BIRDS IN THE SKY *
A hugely-imagined, twisty, turning tale that leads through the labyrinths of magic and war to the center of the heart * Diana Gabaldon, author of Go Tell the Bees that I am Gone from the New York Times best-selling Outlander series *
Roth has pulled off a virtuoso performance, conjuring a stunning thriller/fantasy/sci-fi chimera like nothing I've read before, a story of ex-heroes struggling with the trauma of their past, what it means to have once saved the world, and the dark side of destiny * Blake Crouch, bestselling author of DARK MATTER and RECURSION *
With Chosen Ones, Veronica Roth keeps you guessing: playing with perception, multiverse theory, and the struggles that go along with being 'chosen' to save the world . . . She's created a universe that you never want to leave * Amber Benson, author of The Witches of Echo Park *
An insightful exploration of desire and ambition that also touches on broader societal topics, including celebrity, social media, trauma and recovery * Charles Yu, bestselling author of INTERIOR CHINATOWN *
There's a lot of magic and action to make for a propulsive plot, but much more impressive are the character studies as Roth takes recognizable and beloved teen-hero types and explores what might happen to them as adults. Roth makes a bold entrance to adult fantasy. * Kirkus, Starred Review *
Complex and hard-hitting . . . amazingly written * Rache's Rambling Reviews *
Billed as her first novel for adults, the latest super-readable book by the author of the Divergent series sets out to show that Superheroes have Come of Age . . . [A] breezy, sharply characterized take on what superheroes do after their final battle * The Times *
A thoroughly engrossing read. Sloane is a wonderfully surly protagonist, her teammates are all vividly drawn, the dialogue is a lot of fun and the central mysteries bubble along intriguingly * SFX *
A skilled storyteller, Roth examines issues of racism and responsibility in a well-plotted supernatural thriller * The Guardian *
Roth offers the reader transportation to a rich, well thought out, magical world that also deals with more adult themes around mental health, death, and loss * The Nerd Daily *
