STARRED REVIEW FROM "PUBLISHERS WEEKLY"
"Lu opts for a high simmer of intrigue in her sequel to "Legend" . . .

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."
