Who will be Champion?  
 
June and Day have sacrificed so much for the people of the Republic and each other and now their country is on the brink of a new existence. June is back in the good graces of the Republic, working within the government s elite circles as Princeps Elect while Day has been assigned a high level military position. But neither could have predicted the circumstances that will reunite them once again. Just when a peace treaty is imminent, a plague outbreak causes panic in the Colonies, and war threatens the Republic s border cities. This new strain of plague is deadlier than ever, and June is the only one who knows the key to her country s defense. But saving the lives of thousands will mean asking the one she loves to give up everything he has. With heart-pounding action and suspense, Marie Lu s bestselling trilogy draws to a stunning conclusion.

STARRED REVIEW from VOYA:
  A fast-paced blend of action and science fiction (with only a hint of potential romance) means that this one will likely appeal to male and female readers alike.  Debut author Lu has managed a great feat emulating a highly successful young adult series while staying true to her own voice. Legend will give Hunger Games fans something worthwhile to read.
 
STARRED REVIEW from LIBRARY MEDIA CONNECTION:
  This book stands out . . .

From THE LOS ANGELES TIMES:
Marie Lu has beaten the curse with Prodigy. . . it has all the chivalry of Robin Hood and all the shine and grime of Blade Runner . . .

From THE NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS: 
. . . clear your calendar to allow yourself the luxury of reading this book in one or two sittings. You will be shaken . . .
