Prodigy

The new book by Marie Lu, Prodigy is out now! The first book we read in the club was Legend, a dystopian story about June Iparis, a perfect girl in the Republic and how she meets Day, an thief waging a war against the Republic.

The new book, Prodigy, is summarized as follows.

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?
