Score: Six points out of ten.
That's it. I reached the end of the trilogy. Well then, it's been a ride to read the entire series with some parts I found more enjoyable than others but here's the recap: Renegades was okay. Archenemies was worse. Supernova was slightly better. As I said before Marissa Meyer is an alright author but not the most consistent but I'm happy to say I enjoyed this one despite its flaws. It starts (more like finishes) with the characters, Nova and Adrian I've come to know now and at this point they need no introduction. I pick up after the events of the second instalment where HQ is in ruins after a war and I also see everyone cleaning up for the first few pages but after that nothing much happens. I must stress the point that I couldn't connect or relate to Nova and Adrian and sometimes it was a struggle to read them, not to mention the other characters didn't help the reading experience either as the writing missed the mark. There was a lot of talk about a new substance called Agent N that removes superpowers from prodigious people and the Renegades would use that to full effect but it already fell in the wrong hands in Archenemies and that happened again so what's the point of using that if it's so dangerous to everyone? Agent N plays a role later in the novel when the Anarchists raid a meeting and in the second half the pace picks up, so much so it's enough to save the story and earn a star (if not for that I would've given it three stars.)

This series didn’t go how I thought it was going to but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I love a happy ending and I love the potential for more (especially with that epilogue). The conclusion of this trilogy continued to ask interesting questions of morality as Nova and Adrian’s secrets got closer and closer to coming to light. I just didn’t think those secrets could come to light and then go back into the dark. That being said the plot was a little all over the place and some of these characters aren’t the smartest with putting two and two together, but at it’s core this series is about heroes and villains and the choices we make defining who we are. Overall, this was an interesting world to be in, I’m gonna miss these characters a lot, and I’m holding out hope for more in the future.
