Book description
Prodigy is the long-awaited sequel to Legend, THE
must-read dystopian thriller novel for all YA readers.
Perfect for all fans of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
and Divergent by Veronica Roth. A brilliant re-imagining of
Les Miserables, the series is set to be a global film
sensation as CBS films have acquired rights to the trilogy. The
Twilight Saga producers, Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey, will produce.
Injured and on the run, it has been seven days since June and Day
barely escaped Los Angeles and the Republic with their lives. Day is
believed dead having lost his own brother to an execution squad who
thought they were assassinating him. June is now the Republic's most
wanted traitor.
Desperate for help, they turn to the Patriots - a vigilante rebel
group sworn to bring down the Republic. But can they trust them or
have they unwittingly become pawns in the most terrifying of political games?
Dystopian fiction at its very best in this thrilling instalment in
the Legend trilogy.
