Champion

The assassination of Elector Primo had failed and then Day pledged for Anden to calm the citizens from revolting the government. Things manage to calm down but Day's life is numbered and so he broke up with June. Day and his brother moved away to get treatment in San Francisco. Because of their break up, June accepted Anden's offer to become Princeps-Elect and her training starts where much politics are involved.

For a long time Day has not speak to June and then he got a call from her one night asking for his presence at a party. The treaty talk between The republic and the Colonies has turned bad because a virus was spread into the east. The Colonies claim that it's the republic's fault and they cancel the whole thing unless an antidote was provided. Day was requested by Anden to test on his brother Eden as the virus most likely came from him. Day fear for his brother's condition getting worse if he allows them to do testing again and so he refuses. Things are heating up as war might just start again if the Republic does not manage to give the antidote. This time, this war they will be losing for sure as there is a powerful ally assisting the Colonies

Champion by Marie Lu is the last book of the trilogy. When I finished the book, there were tears which were both sad and happy. I absolutely loved the ending with no complains here. Like the first two books the writing style is the same where alternating chapters between the male and female lead retains. In this book, there is also much growth to the characters. I love the female lead the most as she is so smart, strong, and always being able to make good decisions. 

The plots were good along with the twists. I would say that Marie Lu's writing is fairly good with how the storyline goes. It's definitely well written with very good timing for the events that happens. Again this book is good movie material as I'm always picturing it like that. The character emotions are so real and capturing. I feel that it's the characters that make the book more interesting because of their actions. Overall this is a very good series which captured me very well. All the books were page turners with much action in it and good emotions too. The female lead really captured my heart and I love her much. I highly recommend this series for dystopian book lovers as well as people who love action. This is now my favourite young adult dystopian compared to The Hunger Games and Divergent. 

Prodigy

June helped Day escape his death sentence but John (Day's brother) was executed instead as replacement. Both of them travel to Vegas after the Patriots to seek for their help in locating Day's younger brother. Vegas is military based city and they had to use signals to draw them out. Kaede showed up and brought them to meet the leader. The leader agreed to help heal Day's leg and find his brother in one condition which was June and Day would have to help assassinate the new Elector Primo.

June was suppose to be a wanted person for assisting the escape of Day but because the Elector Primo Anden favors her, they are seeking for her. The Patriots were to send June to be captured so that she could gain Anden's confidence again and she would be the one who lead him to his death. June was apprehended by Commander Jameson's patrol and then brought to Denver. She was not treated badly like a criminal and was given an apartment as her prison. June starts to feel something is not right and she plans to warn Anden but how can she signal Day of her plan.

Prodigy by Marie Lu is the second book of the Legend trilogy where June managed to help Day escape his death execution day. I have to say that the story gets better as there are more twists again. I love how the characters would have to act base on their beliefs and how the female lead always manage to make good decisions. She is one strong person and I really admire her skills for almost everything yet she does have a weak side. The male lead have many struggles and that in turn made him grow but I still see him as someone weaker than the female lead. Given the circumstances of the male lead, he certainly have the right personalities portrayed in the book. The character developments for the book is just marvelous and I enjoyed reading how characters react and change.

The plots of the book is fantastic for me as I felt yet again as though I'm watching a movie. The writer's style of writing is something that I love with each chapter being perspectives of the male and female lead alternating. The story has many twists and turns, emotions involved and that made it a great book for me. The stories were very smooth and it really climax at the best timing. I loved every part of this book and it was flawless for me. I am so looking forward to the ending. This series have taken over first place of my dystopian favorite. I highly recommend for those who love Divergent and The hunger games series, especially people who love actions, military and conspiracy theory.

Legend

The USA has been divided into two countries where the east and west are at war. Day is a wanted criminal of the Republic because of multiple destructions he has done. Sadly, the republic does not know how he really looks like and so the JumboTrons just display all the information it had on Day. Every week when the police comes to do inspection on whether a household has been infected with the plague, Day will be there watching his family from afar. Things was not well when his house was being marked but it was a different one but still the whole family was quarantined.

The only way that Day could help his family is to break in to the hospital to steal cures for his little brother that was infected. Things went really bad and he had to hurt a captain in patrol where he barely got away. June was up to mischief in university and her brother was upset that she was causing trouble. He picked her up and sent her home to go to work. Unfortunately, it was her brother that was hurt by Day and Metias was found dead. June was escorted to see her brother's body by request of Metias's commander. When she reached the scene, Commander Jameson told her to look at the scene and find out more information. She also made June graduate early to be an agent to track Day down.

Legend by Marie Lu is the first book of the trilogy and it's definitely a great start to it. The story is unique and after reading the author's small biography at the back of the book you can understand where some of the influences come from. The characters are really strong characters which makes reading about them exciting. The female protagonist is such a strong person yet she has a soft side too. Both characters are similar but different and their background really influences their decisions.

The book is written in the two main character's perspective alternating chapters. I love this type of writing as we get to know what both people are thinking for different plots of the story. Readers also get different perspectives when certain things are happening in the story. The story from start to end was really exciting, I felt like I was watching a movie. The plots were smooth, slowly reaching climax and with some twists too. I couldn't stop reading, this book is such a page turner. I'm so amazed that for a debut book it's so good which makes me get excited for the second book. To compare it with other books of the same genre, I think this is quite good and overtakes divergent and hunger games' place in my heart. I highly recommend this to dystopian genres lovers.
