Chloroform Wars by Dan Uselton

Chloroform Wars — Runner-Up (Wild Card) at the Paris Book Festival

What if your pain was entertainment—and your silence made you a star?

In a crumbling America where televised obedience replaces free will, teens are forced into live “competitions.” Survival is the prize. Humiliation is the weapon. Every victory means staying visible. Every loss means being exposed. And the whole nation is watching.

Ryker Vale just wanted a paycheck.
Rhea Schwartz wanted a voice.
Neither expected to be matched against the other.

Now, they’ll either take down the system—or become part of the show.

A chilling dystopian tale of control, gender, and media spectacle

Perfect for fans of Black Mirror, The Hunger Games, The Power, and Battle Royale

Sharp, cinematic, and uncomfortably plausible

Are you ready to see what happens when rebellion goes live?
