This. Book. Legendborn does for the world of fantasy young adult novels I only WISH existed ten years ago. Bree's story is not one of redemption, not some soothing tale of love, but one of grief, power, and refusing to accept anything less than justice. Revenge and anger fuel the journey, but along the way we laugh, cry, and wonder in amazement and her own strength. Bree will be back, and I can't wait to read what she does next.
