The relationship between Adrian and Nova kicks up quite a bit! There are a few glorious chapters in which they have an unplanned first date. In Archenemies, we finally seeing these characters as individuals, not just Adrian’s teammates. And Oscar, with his witty retorts, is someone I wanted to see more of! Also, it surprised me how much I grew to like both Ruby and Danna throughout this story.
One of my biggest gripes with Renegades was how little we got to know the rest of Adrian’s team. Are all the Renegades good? Is every villain bad and intent on destroying the world? The duality of these questions are constantly pushing Nova and Adrian to question everything they ever believed.Ĭontinuing with the character-driven focus, we also get more interaction with secondary characters in this installment. Nova and Adrian are each questioning the morality of both “sides” in this fight. I can assure you that Archenemies definitely does NOT suffer from middle book syndrome! In fact, I enjoyed Archenemies even more than Renegades! Character Drivenįirst, Archenemies does feel more character driven than its predecessor. One of the biggest problems the middle book in a trilogy faces is serving as a connection between book one and book three, while still maintaining its own compelling story and unique identity. An,d her observant nature is about to through a HUGE wrench into all of Nova’s plans. But while these endeavors occupy Adrian’s attention, Danna is back on the team.
Meanwhile, Adrian continues to be distracted by his feelings for Nova, investigating his mother’s death, and his concern for Max.
But whatever concerns Nova and Adrian have about this new weapon, there is still plenty of “heroic” work to be done: tracking down a new dangerous villain, archiving various artifacts, as well as Nova’s secret mission to find and steal back Ace Anarchy’s helmet. Near the start of the story, the Council reveals to Nova, Adrian the rest of the Renegades that they soon will be distributing a new weapon to all patrol teams. But the threat of an Anarchist uprising seems to be growing. Nightmare is dead (at least, they believe she is dead). Picking up immediately where Renegades left off, there is much to be happy about at Renegade headquarters. You’ve had your warning, so let’s get started!
