"[D]elicious details keep pages turning . . . you've got the makings for a potent sequel."
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"

Lu proves that a Book 2 needn't play second fiddle, providing intrigue and deep pleasure all its own."
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 . . ."
