Prodigy was much different than Legend. It was no doubt very action packed but I didn't find myself enjoying it as much as I enjoyed the Legend. On the Romance part there wasn't much, half of the time June and Day are separated from each other. The characters which had main role in the last books are not much seen in this one.

Prodigy was much different than Legend. It was no doubt very action packed but I didn't find myself enjoying it as much as I enjoyed the Legend. On the Romance part there wasn't much, half of the time June and Day are separated from each other. The characters which had main role in the last books are not much seen in this one.
The story revolves around June and Day trying to free the Republic from the Elector's wrath. Public has started supporting Day and he suddenly becomes a Hero in this book from a wanted Street Con. It starts from them joining the Patriots and them joining the patriots makes all the difference. It all depends upon their decisions. June struggles with her health in this book. There's more of Day in this book as far as I think. June is mere a support for Day to move ahead with the plans.
Meanwhile Anden struggles with being a young Elector. He needs Public support which Day has and for which he's ready to do anything possible. And moreover he struggles with the Senators and the Congress.
This book undoubtedly very finely describes the happenings in Politics and how the authorities cross any limits to gain the powers which they aren't supposed to. And how only the common people are affected badly.
As far as June and Day are considered and their Romance. I don't think so that they love each other, there's lust no doubt and they make a very good team. They both think alike, June is knowledgeable and Day knows the masses. They fit together and admire each other. As far as love is concerned, I don't think it exists between them. I was convinced in the first book but in this one they've had many differences. For June I feel more bad than Day, he has Eden and Tess but for June no family is left and all on whom she can rely upon is Day.
We lost a very bubbly and precious character in this book, I won't reveal the name (no spoilers) but I'll miss that character in the next book.
This is a action packed book and it contains good action, story is ok ok, not much to look forward to. Few parts are very predictable. But if you've read the first book you'd want to read this one. It consists of revelations that'll affect the fate of Republic. ...more

This was the perfect sequel to Legend. The relationship between Day and June keeps involving keeping you on your toes the whole way through. I was never quite sure which side I was on as the situation kept switching around.
