A hit with adult and teen readers alike, THE RED SERIES brings a fresh twist to dystopian fiction. Perfect for fans of the Hunger Games, Divergent, and Maze Runner series.

Raised in a walled city, constantly watched and controlled, Red longs for freedom. Then a crisis comes, and she learns the truth: You can go into the woods; you might even come back again. But you will never be the same.
