Legend by Marie Lu


Legend

An amazing debut novel from Marie Lu, Legend weaves a sci-fi future dystopia with nonstop action and the clash of classes as we meet teen protagonists June and Day. She is from a wealthy, privileged background and groomed for military leadership in the Republic. He is a boy from the slums, trying to look after his siblings and fight injustice however he is also the Republic’s most wanted criminal. From their alternating points of view we trace the story of June’s brother’s murder and her plan to exact revenge from Day. This is a complex and compelling adventure, with well developed characters and plenty of action, no wonder it’s a best seller.
Yes this is the first in a trilogy, the action continues in Prodigy and the third book is due in November 2013 – Champion. CBS hold film rights!
