The POV shifts back and forth between Nova (the Anarchist pretending to be a Renegade), and Adrian (the actual Renegade). All of the characters are sincere in their motivations – make the world a better place. The book does a good job at demonstrating the old adage, everyone is the hero of their own story. But, some of their plans may be as sinister as the villains. But, when Nova goes undercover to infiltrate the Renegades, it becomes clear that they too are doing what they think is best for everyone. In a world dominated by Prodigies (people with superhuman powers), Nova was raised by super-villains that call themselves Anarchists only, they strongly believe they are doing good by trying to destroy the Renegades, the super-heroes that control the world. In Renegades, she relies instead on the tropes of superhero stories to explore the complexities of good and evil. My Rating: 3.5 (see details below) My ThoughtsĪs a fan of the Lunar Chronicles, I was really excited to see what Meyer’s could create outside of the fairytale framework. Genres: YA / Fantasy / Sci-Fi / Superheroesįormat Used: Audiobook, read by Rebecca Soler and Dan Bittner But Nova’s allegiance is to a villain who has the power to end them both. As she gets closer to her target, she meets Adrian, a Renegade boy who believes in justice - and in Nova. Nova has a reason to hate the Renegades, and she is on a mission for vengeance. As champions of justice, they remain a symbol of hope and courage to everyone… except the villains they once overthrew. The Renegades are a syndicate of prodigies - humans with extraordinary abilities - who emerged from the ruins of a crumbled society and established peace and order where chaos reigned.
