Our protagonist, Lily Adams, is a defiant and resilient young woman who finds herself caught in a web of deception and danger. Determined to expose the corrupt leaders of Versa and fight for justice, Lily embarks on a thrilling journey that will test her limits and challenge everything she holds dear.
The Perils and Challenges
Lily's quest for truth and justice takes her on a rollercoaster ride through a world plagued by poverty, inequality, and political manipulation. From heart-pounding chases to life-or-death encounters, every twist and turn in "The Gamble" will leave you on the edge of your seat.
As Lily discovers shocking secrets about the origins of Versa and its ruling class, she must navigate treacherous alliances, evade capture, and unearth the hidden powers she possesses. Along the way, she encounters a cast of captivating characters, each with their own motives and desire for change.
The Romance that Transcends Boundaries
Amidst the chaos and danger, Lily also finds herself entangled in a forbidden romance that will tug at your heartstrings. The chemistry between Lily and Caleb, an enigmatic rebel from The Fringe, ignites a flame of passion and hope in the midst of despair.
This star-crossed love story adds a layer of emotional depth to the narrative, reminding us that even in the darkest of times, love can bloom and inspire us to fight for a better world.
Why "The Gamble" Stands Out
What sets "The Gamble" apart from other young adult dystopian novels is its compelling storytelling and thought-provoking themes. Lisa Johnson masterfully explores the consequences of power, conformity, and resistance, forcing readers to question the world they inhabit and the choices they make.
Beyond the gripping plot and remarkable characters, "The Gamble" carries a powerful message about the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of fighting for what is right. It reminds us that even in the face of darkness, a single person can spark a revolution and change the course of history.
The Rise of Young Adult Dystopian Fiction
Dystopian novels have gained immense popularity among young adult readers over the past decade. They offer a captivating escape into imagined worlds while reflecting the challenges and complexities of our own society.
With its engaging plot, relatable protagonist, and intense action, "The Gamble" exemplifies the elements that make young adult dystopian fiction so appealing. It transports readers to a world where the fight for justice is paramount and empowers them to question the status quo.
Unlocking the Power of Imagination
As readers immerse themselves in "The Gamble," they are transported to a reality where anything is possible. Johnson's vivid descriptions and skillful world-building paint a picture so vivid that readers can almost taste the dust on The Fringe and feel the opulence of Versa.
Through the power of imagination, "The Gamble" allows readers to escape their daily routines and embark on a thrilling adventure that will keep them hooked from beginning to end.
In
"The Gamble" is not just another dystopian novel; it is a masterfully crafted story that will leave you breathless. With its engaging characters, heart-stopping action, and thought-provoking themes, Lisa Johnson has created a world that will resonate with readers long after they turn the final page.
So, if you're ready to lose yourself in a captivating young adult dystopian novel, take a chance and dive into "The Gamble" - a thrilling journey awaits!

*Now featured as a top 'Winter Read' in Girls' Life Magazine*
It's 2135, and no human alive has seen the sun, or the stars, or even the sky. In the radioactive aftermath of WWIII, Kelsey Keslin is one of only 50,000 people left on the planet. Sealed inside the Republic of the Continuation, a subterranean city housing the last of humanity, the laws are strict, punishments brutal, and space and resources severely limited. The best form of population control has become the Gamble, a lottery based system which sentences thousands to death each year.
Kelsey lives a privileged life. Of anyone, she has the least to worry about with the Gamble, but that doesn't stop her fear and anxiety as her first official day of potential selection draws closer. When someone she loves is chosen for execution, a part of her dies too. No longer willing to struggle alone, buried alive in a world made of nothing but grey concrete and cold metal, Kelsey collapses into a self-destructive depression.
But then she meets the stunning, yet abrasively arrogant Jaxon Cole. Despite his aloof exterior, there’s a connection between them that Kelsey can’t quite explain. He sets out to prove the world holds more secrets than Kelsey ever realized, and some she never wanted to know.
Accused of being a spy, kidnapped and tortured by a radical fringe group, and faced with death more than once, the biggest problems Kelsey battles, are the lies and betrayals of those she loves most.
The Gamble is the first in a teen/ Young Adult dystopian trilogy. Preorders for the sequel, The Choice, are now available.
