Synopses

Legend

Described as a dystopian thriller for teen readers, this series opener is presented as a re-imagining of Les Miserables. The source also notes that CBS Films acquired rights to the trilogy, with producers Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey attached.

Prodigy

Injured and on the run, it has been seven days since June and Day narrowly escaped Los Angeles and the Republic. Day is believed dead after losing his brother to an execution squad, while June is now the Republic’s most wanted traitor.

Champion

June and Day have sacrificed for the Republic and for each other as the country nears a new, peaceful existence. With June working within the government’s elite circles and Day assigned a high-level military position, a deadly plague outbreak and rising border tensions bring them back together.

The Young Elites

A decade after a deadly illness swept through the nation, most of the infected perished, while many surviving children were left with strange markings. Adelina’s black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and she bears a jagged scar where her left eye once was.

The Rose Society

Adelina Amouteru is set on revenge. Known and feared as the White Wolf, she and her sister flee Kenettra to find other Young Elites and build an army, aiming to strike down the Inquisition Axis, the white-cloaked soldiers who nearly killed her.

The Midnight Star

Adelina Amouteru is done suffering and has turned her back on those who betrayed her, achieving victory. Her reign as the White Wolf has been triumphant, but the darkness within her begins to spiral out of control, threatening to destroy everything.
