The bestselling 100 trilogy is a young adult science fiction trilogy by Kass Morgan set three centuries after a thermonuclear apocalypse where resources are so scarce that all crimes no matter how small are punishable by death unless the perpetrator is under 18 years of age and the only known survivors of the human race live in a Space Colony consisting of spaceships joined together in orbit around the Earth, governed by The Chancellor who leads its legislative council.
Little, Brown Books for Young Readers published the eponymous first book in the series on September 3, 2013. The sequel named Day 21 was released on September 25, 2014 and Homecoming was released on February 26, 2015 which completed the trilogy.
The trilogy begins with Clarke, a former medical student, being arrested for a crime committed by her parents: conducting illegal experiments on children under threat of the corrupt Vice Chancellor.
She confides in her boyfriend Wells, who is the chancellor's son. Despite swearing secrecy, he still tells his father, hoping to save her family. His plan backfires, they are arrested, and his relationship with her disintegrates. Two years later, the Colony decides to send one hundred of its teenage prisoners to investigate whether Earth is habitable. The group crashes somewhere on the East Coast in the former United States. Once there, Clarke tends to the wounded and they struggle to survive in a world very different from the past Earth. They discover a farm not too far from the site as the survivors investigate a fire set to their camp, leading them to the realization that they are not as alone as they thought.
Prior to the publication of the first book, producer Jason Rothenberg became interested in loosely adapting the story. CW announced on May 9, 2013 that the pilot was officially ordered to series for the 2013–2014 American television season and premiered on March 19, 2014. It was renewed for a second season on May 8, 2014 and premiered on October 22, 2014. The network renewed the series again on January 11, 2015 for a third one which premiered on January 21, 2016 and renewed the series for a fourth on March 12, 2016.
