About this ebook
Adapted from the bestselling Legend trilogy by Marie Lu, comes a story of nonstop action, suspense, and romance sure to move readers as much as it thrills.
Once known as the western coast of the United States, the Republic is now a nation perpetually at war with its neighbors, the Colonies.
Born into an elite family in one of the Republic’s wealthiest districts, fifteen-year-old June is a military prodigy. Obedient, passionate, and committed to her country, she is being groomed for success in the Republic’s highest circles.
Born into the slums of the Republic’s Lake Sector, fifteen-year-old Day is the country’s most wanted criminal. But his motives may not be as malicious as they seem.
From very different worlds, June and Day have no reason to cross paths—until the day June’s brother, Metias, is murdered and Day becomes the prime suspect. Now, caught in the ultimate game of cat and mouse, Day is in a race for his family’s survival, while June tries desperately to avenge Metias’s death.
But in a shocking turn of events, the two uncover the truth of what has really brought them together and the sinister lengths to which their country will go to keep its secrets.

I read the novel Legend when I was still in high school, and then waited a year for Prodigy to come out. I love these books so much, and when I heard about the graphic novel I was anxious to say the least. Marie Lu's story translates to illustrations incredibly well, and due to her ability to describe characters and settings, nothing about this caught me off guard or looked different from what I had expected.

I love the art style. I can't wait for part 2 because that's currently my favorite book in the series. The pacing of the comic was kinda fast.
