Young World
About This Book
Benton Young is a high school senior with a crush to impress and a phone in his hand. On impulse he posts a video daring the whole country to ignore the ballot and write him in for President. The clip spreads fast, the election descends into chaos, and a national uprising follows, until the Supreme Court steps in and puts him in the White House. His win is only the start. America is close to collapse and young people everywhere have stopped trusting the adults in charge, so others follow his example. Teenagers take to the streets, governments topple, and eventually eight of the world's most powerful nations are run by teenage leaders. Then comes their first summit, held in Sweden, where these young presidents and prime ministers are supposed to chart a new course for history. On the very first night one of them is murdered, and Benton is the only suspect. With enemies of every age closing in, he has to pick apart a web of secrets, betrayals and power plays to clear his name, while the fate of the world hangs on the outcome. Soman Chainani, author of the School for Good and Evil series, builds this thriller around a single question: what happens when the future truly does belong to the young?
