'The new Hunger Games... ' Cosmopolitan
He never loved me. It was all a lie.
'The old Lena is dead,' I say, and then push past him. Each step is more difficult that the last; the heaviness fills me and turns my limbs to stone.
You must hurt, or be hurt.
An all-out uprising has been ignited and Lena Haloway is right at its centre.
But things have changed. The Wilds are no longer a safe haven for the rebels and pockets of resistance have opened throughout the country.
And when a face from her past reappears, Lena is faced with a devastating choice that could tear her and the revolution apart.
'Un-put-downable, a truly fantastic finale.' Guardian
The final instalment in the internationally bestselling Delirium trilogy.

Reviews
The new Hunger Games . . . We loved the first two books, and spring sees the publication of the final instalment . . . With a movie trilogy in the pipeline too, you'd better get reading! * Cosmopolitan *
Lena Haloway's journey will have readers breathlessly turning the pages . . . A dystopian tour de force. * Kirkus Reviews *
Fast paced and consistently poignant, this tale quickly becomes hypnotically addictive ... A thoughtful, exciting and moving story that reminds us just how important love is. Devour it, then go and give all your friends a big hug. -- Heat on DELIRIUM
A dystopian Romeo and Juliet story that deserves to be as massive as Twilight. -- Stylist on DELIRIUM
Amazing, unputdownable! -- Grazia on DELIRIUM
We're big fans of Lauren Oliver and this is the emotionally charged follow-up to last year's futuristic love story DELIRIUM. With echoes of Brave New World, we catch up with young heroine Lena as she attempts to survive in the dangerous Wilds . . . Now we just have to wait for the final episode in the trilogy. -- Bella on PANDEMONIUM
In the same mode as Suzanne Collins in her Hunger Games trilogy, Oliver, too, posits a feisty, physically able heroine, giving as good as she gets, in a fast-paced YA thriller: this trend is a welcome one. -- Independent on Sunday on PANDEMONIUM
