Book cover

The Renegades Trilogy continues, in this fiercely awaited second installment after the New York Times-bestselling Renegades by Marissa Meyer, author of the Lunar Chronicles.

Now a New York Times Bestseller!

Time is running out.
Together, they can save the world.
But they each other’s worst nightmare.

Nova’s double life is about to get a lot more complicated:

As Insomnia, she is a full-fledged member of the Renegades, a syndicate of powerful and beloved superheroes. She works with Adrian’s patrol unit to protect the weak and maintain order in Gatlon City.

As Nightmare, she is an Anarchist - a group of of villains who are determined to destroy the Renegades. Nova wants vengeance against the so-called heroes who once failed her when she needed them most.

But as Nova, her feelings for Adrian are deepening, despite the fact that he is the son of her sworn enemies and, unbeknownst to Nova, he has some dangerous secrets of his own.

In this second installment of the Renegades trilogy, Nova, Adrian, and the rest of their crew – Ruby, Oscar, and Danna -- are faced with escalating crime in Gatlon City, while covert weapons and conflicting missions have Nova and Adrian questioning not only their beliefs about justice, but also the feelings they have for each other.

The line between good and evil has been blurred, but what's clear to them both is that too much power could mean the end of their city – and the world – as they know it.

second book syndrome
Reviewed in the United States on 07-13-2022
This book was also incredible, but not too much happened compared to the first.

I did really enjoy the continuation of the character developments and learning more about how this world works.

I’m glad that *those guys* finally got what was coming to them, and that they’ll no longer be an issue in the third book.

I am really excited to see how things progress from here, considering everything is in literal shambles at the moment in all ways.

Can’t wait to see everyone’s secrets come out and figure out how they’re all going to be able to move past them.

Better than Renegades!
Reviewed in the United States on 04-20-2019
A definite improvement over the first book! And wow....those last few chapters! They had me on the edge of my seat!

I won't summarize the plot as this is a sequel and I don't want to risk spoilers but I will describe a bit of what I really enjoyed or didn't enjoy.

Likes:

1. Overall, this was very fast paced! This is a chunky book, similar to Renegades, I felt the space was well utilized. Though there were certain story lines that seemed to drag, in the end, they all went to progress the plot and seemed to matter.

2. There was some great discussion about right and wrong, Good vs. Evil, etc., that was very thought provoking and had you really questioning who you should route for. This book shows you how grey each area is, and that the villains might not always be evil, and the heroes might now always be good. That heroes are flawed and that villains can be selfless.

3. On a similar note, it was hard to pick a side. Meyer does a great job of showing the issues in such a well-rounded way that it makes you understand and sympathize with both Nove and Adrian.

My Issues:

1. Nova. Though I find her to be the far more interesting character in comparison to Adrian, I find her motivations misguided. Her whole hatred of the Renegades is founded upon the fact that, when she was a child, they did not protect her family from an attack by a local gang. But, unless the Renegades have some type of system or power to alert them at absolutely every single sign of danger and violence, how would they have known she was in trouble?

Over time, she has come to see some of the other negative side to the Renegades, but her driving factor is that her entire family was killed because the Renegades didn't save them. I find that to be a bit unreasonable.

2. There was a plot-device used here that irked me: Deus Ex Machina. This is when a seemingly unsolvable problem is quickly resolved by an unexpected and unlikely occurrence. That happened here and it made a lot of things a bit too convenient. Without it, Meyer would not have been able to craft the story that she did.
