Legend: Review
In Legend, foes in a totalitarian state (headquartered in
a partially-underwater Los Angeles) find that they share a common
goal. Seemingly aimed at a YA audience, it has many familiar
elements. A pair of main characters from "different sides of the
track". A will-they-or-won't they dynamic. Character flaws are
minimal.
Overall, Legend spends so much time on its characters that
the dystopian world fades into the background. While the story is
interesting, with some decent twists and turns, it ultimately feels
like it could be set in any time.
