Featured on Entertainment Weekly's MUST-LIST! The highly anticipated second book in Marie Lu's New York Times bestseller, LEGEND—perfect for fans of THE HUNGER GAMES and DIVERGENT! June and Day arrive in Vegas just as the unthinkable happens: the Elector Primo dies, and his son Anden takes his place. With the Republic edging closer to chaos, the two join a group of Patriot rebels eager to help Day rescue his brother and offer passage to the Colonies. They have only one request—June and Day must assassinate the new Elector. It’s their chance to change the nation, to give voice to a people silenced for too long. But as June realizes this Elector is nothing like his father, she’s haunted by the choice ahead. What if Anden is a new beginning? What if revolution must be more than loss and vengeance, anger and blood—what if the Patriots are wrong?

It turns out Prodigy just wasn't all that good. Day and June were boring characters. Tess was sweet but unexceptional....
It took me a while to get into this, what with it being a few years since I read the first book, but I remembered bits. There was a bit of a surprise thrown in but by the time it came about I was kind if expecting something like that to happen anyway. I'm going to have to read the third and fina...
