Add a CommentMarissa Meyer is one of my very favorite authors. Her ability to suck the reader into the fantasy worlds she creates is unlike any other! I couldn't put this one down and didn't want it to end.
Even with pacing that was a tad to slow, I still fell in love with this book and am counting the days to the sequel. The combinations of a extraordinarily strong cast and plot allow the reader to feel the emotion and reasoning by both Nova and Adrian. This book most definitely earns a 10/10 and a "Get This Book Now!" rating.
This was the best book I’ve ever read. The characters are amazing. I can’t wait until November.
Super hero/villain fans, this book is for you. The author of the popular Lunar Chronicles series returns in Renegades. In this world, prodigies, people born with powers, were hated, feared, and mistreated, until they decided to fight back. The world is torn apart in the struggle and is still getting back onto its feet with the help of these powered individuals, though there are still villains who don't like to see their hard-earned power taken away. This was a refreshing read that's good for all ages. Sensational powers and believable, realistic human issues play well together to form a great, driving story. 9/10
I loved this book so much!!!! I even photo-copied the cover and put it on my bedroom wall....... can't wait for the next book, Arch Enemies, to come out! (Seriously though, I have a count down for it. I CANNOT wait till November!)
Nova Artino, niece of the infamous Ace Anarchy, is a member of a criminal gang of archvillains bent on taking down the Renegades, the superhero syndicate who defeated Ace and other rival gangs and restored order to the city of Gatlon.
While I was reading this, I did not want to put it down, but now that I'm done I'm pretty lukewarm toward it. I don't know that it contributes anything new to the genre, but it was fairly fun, and I like the moral dilemma that it set up. I hope the moral dilemma gets explored more. I felt a little let down by that. It seemed to get forgotten in the action.
My take away from this story was: you can't judge a book by its cover. The "bad" guys are fighting for some "good" reasons. And the "good" guys aren't "good" all the time either. This novel explores how and why we come to believe the things we believe - and points out that we may seem different, but we are closer in our views from people who we think have opposing viewpoints than we may realize. A good read.
I think this is a great book. The story was amazing and I definitely think you should read it. I can't wait for the next book!
this is AMAZING! i would totally recommend it! :D
It was really good! :) Definitely Merissa Meyer worthy!
