Known

The Reliant survive on pure, unyielding faith.

The Enlightened thrive on keen, calculating logic.

Two factions emerged from the ashes of the old world. But at seventeen, every citizen is required to enter The Knowing—a brutal, dual immersion crucible designed to shatter illusions, expose loyalties, and push survival instincts to a breaking point.

For Enlightened-born Coryn Xavier, survival means deception. Disguised as one of the elite, she enters the test determined to remain who she is no matter how she may appear. But inside the arena, she finds something she never expected: Auras Lazarus.

An aimless Enlightened socialite with no loyalty to either side, Auras challenges everything Coryn believes about conviction, society, and love. But when the final trial exposes a terrifying secret—that The Knowing is being controlled by a technology capable of altering perception itself—Coryn must question the one thing she thought she could trust.
