Even Ace is a bit wishy-washy to me we get to know him slightly better, but I wasn't overly impressed.
With the exception of Ace and Nova, the others are very bland sidekicks who don't seem to know what they are fighting for. To put it bluntly, I don't find the Anarchists to be very compelling characters. If heroes are the creators of it, doesn't that make it automatically good? Or will we see their fall into becoming the true villains? I'd love to get more of a debate going between Nova and the Renegades in the next book the reaction to the chemical was a bit too passive to be believable. Nova is passionate in her opinions, while Adrian has a harder time deciding what he thinks is right or wrong. Meyer's once again provides no easy "right or wrong" choices to be had in this series with the introduction of Agent N, the books major ethical dilemma is around who can be trusted with this and when should it be used. I loved the first book, Renegades (book review here), and was more than excited to jump back into Galton City and find out what comes next for Nova and Adrian. "The world is exceptionally well crafted, particularly the complex backstory of the rise of prodigies among humans, and the secondary cast of villains and heroes could give Marvel and DC a run for their money.The Lunar Chronicles is such a great series and one that I often recommend to others, so I was very ready to fall in love with another Marissa Meyer's series. "Meyer delivers a balance between intricate world-building and fast-paced action sequences." - School Library Journal
"Even reluctant fans of hero fantasies will fall for the smart plot and wonderful world-building. "Exciting.perfect for your Fall #TBR list.".
"A fully realized new world with compelling characters and just enough edge-of-your-seat action to rival the biggest on-screen adaptation." -Bustle “Blends sci-fi and action like a young adult X-Men novel, asking what it means to be a hero and what it means to be a villain.” - Paste Magazine "Tackles a familiar genre in a brand new way.". "In a vividly dark and fully imagined universe where special abilities are feared unless they can be strictly controlled and labeled, Meyer celebrates and subverts popular superhero tropes while mining the gray area between malevolence and virtue." - Publishers Weekly, starred review A Publishers Weekly Bestseller (Supernova)Ī Winter 2017-2018 Kids' Indie Next List Selection
