Benson Fisher thought that a scholarship to Maxfield Academy would be the ticket out of his dead-end life. He was wrong. Now he s trapped in a school thats surrounded by a razor-wire fence. A school where video cameras monitor his every move. Where there are no adults. Where the kids have split into groups in order to survive. Where breaking the rules equals death. But when Benson stumbles upon the school s real secret, he realizes that playing by the rules could spell a fate worse than death, and that escape his only real hope for survival may be impossible. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Review:
"Benson's account unfolds in a speedy, unadorned first person. Hard to put down from the very first page, this fast-paced novel answers only some of the questions it poses, holding some of the most tantalizing open for the next installment in a series that is anything but ordinary."--Kirkus Reviews

"Variant is a compelling story on so many levels. I loved it! The twist behind it all is my favorite since Ender's Game."--James Dashner, New York Times bestselling author of The Maze Runner

"An intense journey with some of the most shocking twists and turns I've ever read."--Pittacus Lore, #1 New York Times bestselling author of I Am Number Four

"Good old-fashioned paranoia taken to giddy extremes. Take Veronica Roth's Divergent, strip out the angst, add a Michael Grant-level storytelling pace, and you have this very satisfying series starter."--Booklist

"Fans seeking a fast-paced, action-heavy read will find this generates a lot of excitement."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"Filled with heart-racing action and suspense. An impressive debut with wide appeal, especially for fans of Alexander Gordon Smith's Lockdown and James Dashner's The Maze Runner."--School Library Journal

An intense journey with some of the most shocking twists and turns I ve ever read. --Pittacus Lore, #1 New York Times bestselling author of I Am Number Four"

A chilling, masterful debut. With its clever premise, quick pace, and easy-to-champion characters, Wells story is a fast, gripping read with a cliffhanger that will leave readers wanting more. --Publishers Weekly (starred review)"

Variant is a compelling story on so many levels. I loved it! The twist behind it all is my favorite since Ender s Game. --James Dashner, New York Times bestselling author of The Maze Runner"

An exciting, edge-of-your-seat read that combines psychological themes from works like Lord of the Flies, The Hunger Games and Ender s Game in a truly unique way. Variant should join the ranks of today s must-read science fiction and fantasy series. A highly recommended addition to any collection for teens. --Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) (Starred Review)"
