Synopsis

"Both narrators bring authenticity to the young characters...this fun and surprisingly thoughtful superhero tale will be a rewarding listen." — AudioFile Magazine

From #1 New York Times-bestselling author Marissa Meyer, comes a high-stakes world of adventure, passion, danger, and betrayal. This new audiobook will pull listeners in and never let them go...

Secret Identities.
Extraordinary Powers.
She wants vengeance. He wants justice.

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. As champions of justice, they remain a symbol of hope and courage to everyone...except the villains they once overthrew.

Nova has a reason to hate the Renegades, and she is on a mission for vengeance. As she gets closer to her target, she meets Adrian, a Renegade boy who believes in justice—and in Nova. But Nova's allegiance is to a villain who has the power to end them both.

Renegades is the next hit YA audiobook listeners have been waiting for!

Goodreads review by Emily May on October 30, 2017

2 1/2 stars. I'm reminding myself while I'm writing this that I really didn't like Meyer's Cinder but went on to enjoy the rest of the series. Maybe Meyer is just not great at beginnings. Maybe I'm already feeling burned out on this new "It" genre featuring superhero stories. All I know is that Rene......more

I LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH. So fun so complex so interesting – a must read!! Check out my video review!: [URL not allowed] Other than the epic superheroes, what intrigues me most about Renegades is that it focuses on the concept of anarchy, which appears to be lacking in YA desp......more

Guys, I don’t know myself anymore. I’m currently sitting here eating baby carrots, and I’m not happy about it, which is characteristic, but the sheer fact that I’m ingesting a vegetable in the first place is astounding. I’m currently addicted to watching feature-length episodes of a British quiz show......more

4.5 stars ✨ "She wasn't a Renegade. She was Nightmare. And she did not like to be seen." Wow that was so much fun.

Quotes

"[T]his fun and surprisingly thoughtful superhero tale will be a rewarding listen." - AudioFile

"In a vividly dark and fully imagined universe where special abilities are feared unless they can be strictly controlled and labeled, Meyer celebrates and subverts popular superhero tropes while mining the gray area between malevolence and virtue.
Third-person narration builds suspense as it shifts between Nova and Adrian, a Renegade with his own secrets; the worldbuilding details and many combat sequences will captivate devotees of superhero comics. Beyond the capes and masks is a strikingly grounded story of star-crossed would-be lovers, deception, and the recognition that most of humanity exists between the extremes of good and evil."--Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Tackles a familiar genre in a brand new way."--Hypable.com

"Exciting...perfect for your Fall #TBR list."--PopSugar.com

"Even reluctant fans of hero fantasies will fall for the smart plot and wonderful world-building. Prepare to fangirl."--Justine Magazine

"Meyer delivers a balance between intricate world-building and fast-paced action sequences. Nova’s childhood tragedy will draw sympathy from readers as they watch her integrate into the group of Renegades in order to seek vengeance. Back-stabbing, plot twists, and hidden agendas will have readers turning pages in an attempt to discover the truth."--School Library Journal

Praise for Marissa Meyer’s Lunar Chronicles series:

#1 New York TimesBestselling Series
USA Today Bestseller
Publishers Weekly Bestseller
National Indie Bestseller

“A mash-up of fairy tales and science fiction . . . a cross between Cinderella, The Terminator, and Star Wars.” —Entertainment Weekly

“Prince Charming among the cyborgs.” —The Wall Street Journal

“Terrific.” —Los Angeles Times

Praise for Marissa Meyer's Heartless:

"In Heartless, the nonsense that is Wonderland gets a reverential makeover, full of heart and its own idiosyncratic character." Gregory Maguire, Wicked and After Alice

"The author’s best fantasy yet. . . . Meyer has woven all the elements of darkness and light, fate and free will, and love and hatred into an unforgettable story of the evolution of the Red Queen from a young girl who dreamed of true love and freedom to a madwoman best remembered for the phrase 'Off with his head.' If you only read one fractured fairy tale this year, make it Heartless." —School Library Journal, starred review
