In the aftermath of genetic experiments gone tragically wrong, humankind is on the brink of extinction. It is artificially intelligent Calista's task to rebuild the population, and Wonder is her proving ground. In competitions that are grueling, humbling-even humiliating-she conditions her elite candidates to lead humanity into the future.
Seventeen-year-old Carter Simms has been chosen to compete in Wonder. He knows it's an honor. He also knows that failure means a one-way trip to Oblivion, where he will spend the rest of his short life in a frozen wasteland. The only bright spot is his flirty best friend will be in Wonder with him, and with her, the promise his summer will be anything but predictable. So, with a measure of hope he can avoid exile, and maybe even have some fun, Carter resolves to compete in Calista's games.
Then Carter discovers Wonder is not all it seems. There are disturbing secrets hidden behind its walls. Some of which are too terrible to believe. But Carter can't help his self-destructive search for truth. He picks at the mysteries of the world he thought he understood. He tumbles in the rankings. And with the chill of Oblivion on his shoulders, Carter must choose-the truth or his friend-because he can't have both.
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Joseph Nassise says Wonderfall is "A damn good story with enough twists and turns to keep even this jaded reader on his toes." It's a story that will keep you guessing until the very last page.
