I just finished reading The Testing this evening (review coming tomorrow) so I decided to pick up The Testing Guide since it's listed as a prequel to the series. I'm glad that it was free, however, since it didn't actually provide any new material or answer any questions. Set six years prior to th...

It was just over 10 pages. I'm not really picky about novellas, but that was not what I was hoping for when I hear it would focus on Zeen. I think I wanted too much.

The best part of this freebie is its offering of the first three chapters of THE TESTING at the end of what turned out to be a micro-second look at part of what we assume is 'the test'. Had those three chapters not been included, I would've been completely lost and had zero interest in continuing on...
