Genres: Post-Apocalyptic, Science Fiction, Young Adult
Brooklyn Harper’s friends have betrayed her, her heart is broken, and all of humanity is at risk.
After Kirin’s unannounced arrival in Louisiana, Brooklyn finds herself scrambling for a way out of an impossible situation. Kirin is creating the deadly Genesis Cull, and Brooklyn doesn’t know who to turn to for help.
With no other options, she’s forced to trust her nemesis, Juneau Malloy. His support allows the group of Special Omen Operatives to gear up, form a plan of action, and train for the day when they come face-to-face with their worst fear—going to war with their friends.
There is a divide in the once inseparable group of Omens, and their only hope is to put the pieces back together.
Julian Yu Matsumoto agonizes over the difference between right and wrong, love and sacrifice, genocide and revolution. While he struggles with his feelings for Kirin, his moral compass is spinning round and round, his heart is being pulled in different directions, and Julian is desperate to answer questions he never thought he would have to ask.
Is Kirin’s Genesis Cull a revolution or genocide?
Could there be another way to save themselves and humanity as they know it?
Will Julian pay the ultimate price for loving a monster?
Their only hope for redemption is—the Legacy Strain.
My Review
I thought the book was good but not my favorite of the three. I would have to say that I didn't like something that we found out Brooklyn did in the story, and that's one of the main reasons that this book got 4 out of 5 stars. I think Gabriel and Porter are my favorites. I also have to say I didn't care for Julian in this book either, I just don't understand how he could feel the way he does about Kirin. This guy didn't have any great qualities and was pretty much a boring character. Besides something he does towards the end of the story.
I did enjoy the story though I thought it had plenty of action and I loved most of the book, didn't care much for the ending of it. It wrapped up okay just not the best ending for a book.
My rating would actually be more like a 3 1/2 stars but I went up a 4 star rating, due to the beginning and the middle of the book.
I am still very happy that I was chosen to take part of this book tour.
