This is such exciting news, book lovers: Marie Lu, the author behind the bestselling and beloved Legend and Young Elites series, is writing a new duology! The first book will be called Warcross, and tells the tale of two teen bounty hunters hired by a young billionaire to catch a hacker in the world’s most phenomenally popular virtual reality video game.
“Warcross is very much a love letter to all of my favorite things. I am having the most deliriously awesome time working on this new project, and I hope that both past and new readers will enjoy reading this as much as I’m enjoying writing it,” Marie said.
