Archenemies, Part Two

Author: Marissa Meyer

Time is running out, and together they can save the world, but each is the other's worst nightmare. Nova's double life is about to get much more complicated: As Insomnia, she is a full-fledged member of the Renegades, a beloved coalition of superheroes. She works with a patrol unit to protect the vulnerable and maintain order in Gatlon City. As Nightmare, she is one of the Anarchists, a group of villains determined to bring down the Renegades. Nova wants revenge on those so-called heroes who once failed her when she needed them most. But, being Nova, her feelings for Adrian deepen despite him being the son of her sworn enemies, and he harbors dangerous secrets Nova knows nothing about. In this second installment of the Renegades trilogy, Nova and Adrian, along with the rest of the crew, Ruby, Oscar, and Danna, face a rising crime rate in Gatlon City. Meanwhile, hidden weapons and conflicting missions make both Nova and Adrian question their understanding of justice and their feelings for each other. The line between good and evil has blurred, but what is clear to them is that excessive power could lead to the destruction of the city as they know it, and even the entire world. "Meyer excels at portraying super-powered individuals, and the book's best moments feature breathtaking displays of abilities, along with enjoyable glimpses into centuries of powered history. The thrilling ending will leave readers eager for the final installment." - Publishers Weekly.
