In early 2016, I published a roundup of The 110 Best Dystopian Novels. Of course, many new dystopian novels came out during the remainder of 2016 and throughout 2017. And more will continue to do so with each passing year. So to keep my list updated over time, here are the best dystopian novels of 2016 and 2017. The final rankings are based on curated lists from the Huffington Post, Vulture, Publishers Weekly and more, suggestions from readers on Goodreads and Reddit and ratings on Goodreads and Amazon.

To complement these rankings, I have created two pieces of bonus content:

Dystopian fiction book recommendations from fifteen contemporary dystopian authors like Neal Shusterman (author of the number three book of 2016), Omar El Akkad (author of the number one book of 2017) and Lois Lowry. A one-page PDF shopping guide to the complete list of The Best Dystopian Novels.

You can access both of these free resources using the form below. And now, on with The Best Dystopian Novels of 2016 and 2017!
