Archenemies is a sequel to Renegades, by the bestselling author Marissa Meyer. Seeking vengeance, Nightmare, or Nova, is an anarchist closely tied to the story, is still seeking vengeance on the Renegades. Her other persona, Insomnia is still under the guise of a Renegade, helping with the capture of prodigies who exploit their power. However, she encounters a major roadblock when she finds that she has feelings for a boy named Adrian, her enemy’s son, and therefore, her enemy. Adrian and Nova question what is good, and what is bad, what is correct, and what is wrong. They must question their feelings and their beliefs, before one wrong move can destroy civilization.

This book is thrilling, which is one of the biggest reasons why I kept reading. The dialogue are especially entertaining. Any fans of YA novels and superhero stories will enjoy this read.
