The Trials Trilogy

Dreams were once sacred. Now they are state property. Under constant surveillance, citizens grow up knowing their subconscious is monitored, cataloged, and judged. At sixteen, the most dangerous dreams are selected — and their dreamers are forced into the Black Trials. Thousands enter. Not all return. Fanya has spent her life trying to outrun the nightmare that haunts her sleep. Now she must face it head-on in a government-controlled dreamscape where fear becomes flesh and trust can shatter in an instant. But as the lines between nightmare and reality blur, Fanya uncovers something far more terrifying than her own recurring dream: The Trials were never meant to save them. They were meant to control them.
