He is a Legend.
She is a Prodigy.
Who will be Champion?
June and Day have sacrificed so much for the people of the Republic—and each other—and now their country is on the brink of a new existence. June is back in the good graces of the Republic, working within the government’s elite circles as Princeps Elect while Day has been assigned a high level military position. But neither could have predicted the circumstances that will reunite them once again. Just when a peace treaty is imminent, a plague outbreak causes panic in the Colonies, and war threatens the Republic’s border cities. This new strain of plague is deadlier than ever, and June is the only one who knows the key to her country’s defense. But saving the lives of thousands will mean asking the one she loves to give up everything he has. With heart-pounding action and suspense, Marie Lu’s bestselling trilogy draws to a stunning conclusion.
First of all, I absolutely LOVE this cover! It looks simple but there is so much going on and it's gorgeous. Secondly, ahhh the ending of Prodigy! I've been in love with this series ever since Legend. It is just the right blend of action, adventure, dystopia and romance. It's like a great action movie in a book. Can't wait to get this book.
I'm really looking forward to this, too. I'm glad that the wait between this and Prodigy isn't too long because the ending of Prodigy- gah! I couldn't believe it.
ReplyDeleteExactly, I breathed a sigh of relief after finishing Prodigy and realizing that I would have Champion in my hands sooner than expected.

Eep I'm so excited for this one as well! It feels like ages since I read the sequel!!
ReplyDeleteThe wait does that. I've always envied those who brave it out until the whole series is out to read it. I've never been that patient :)

Haha *high fives back* Exactly, this cover is the impersonation of a perfect cover in my opinion. Simple yet still meaningful and eye catching. Can't wait to see how it all goes down :)

These series covers get better and better! And of course I still haven't gon on the bandwagon for this book. I'm crazy I know. I really want to read The Spectacular Now. You should check out the movie trailer. More people should know about it. Have fun reading (:
ReplyDeleteWow, I've always wondered how you guys do it. I'm so impatient I always read the book and then have to wait a year or more to read the sequels.
