Publisher's summary

The second book in Marie Lu’s New York Times best-selling Legend trilogy - perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent!

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?

In this highly-anticipated sequel to the New York Times best seller Legend, Lu delivers a breathtaking thriller with high stakes and cinematic action.

Great story but be still my heart

Great story. Great ending even though I emotionally hated it. But all great legends have that kind of... Well you should just read it. I'm happy that there is another I'm getting it now.

Day and June...like Romeo and Juliet but better

The characters came alive as I listened to this book. Day and June are vivid characters that came alive in the depths of my imaginatiion. I loved the fast paced story line that was filled with emotion and fast paced heart thumping action. Day and June have joined the Patriots against the Republic in a goal to assasinate the Elector (leader of the Republic). At first both Day and June agree to the plan but soon both find out that not all is as it seems. Who can be trusted?
The book keeps you asking questions and gives satisfactory answers. I can't say enough how much I loved this book!

Slow at first... but picks up and pretty good.

Any additional comments?

Starts a little slow at first... but eventually picks up. The story line isn't bad. I recommend if you're bored and want something entertaining to read with a little romance and "action".

Intriguing but somewhat frustrating at times

I really enjoyed the first book, and I thought this book was going in a completely different direction. I didn't hate the actual story, and I was even pleasantly surprised with the turn toward the end, but I felt like everyone was too emotional.

Great characters. Clever storyline.

What other book might you compare Prodigy to and why?

If you like the divergent trilogy you will like this

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I really disliked having to stop and come back to this book. But I have to work so I can get more books.

One of my favorite books

This book is an excellent combination of drama and excitement, and the best part (in my opinion) of the book is the 2 perspectives.
