RENEGADES (BADLANDS: NEXT GENERATION #3) by Natalie Bennett: REVIEW TOUR

Renegades by Natalie Bennett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Third book in the BADLANDS NEXT GENERATION, Renegades once again immersed me into the dark, violent and ruthless atmosphere of the Badlands. 

The beginning completely intrigued and capticated me, introducing a new character, Star. 

Prisoner of thr A.R.C faction, her strength and resilience equal her intelligence. I liked that she fought and knew which battle were worth fighting.


Back with the Savages, Cameron dances with his demons and Bella slowly gets back on track.

Luce embraces his destiny while readying for the next step of the battle. 

"When it came to his family his heart bled red and was encased in gold."


The blurb and the warnings led me to think the romance would push the boundaries a little further, though.  And  from the Luce I got to know in the previous books, I was expecting more raw scenes between him and Star.

"I didn’t fear Lucifuge, but I was downright terrified of the things he could do to me."


Don't get me wrong, it is really dark, gruesome at parts, and terrifying at others. It was just not the darkest book of the three about the new generation. The alliances, the mystery, the tension thrilled me to no end, while the revelations had me crossing my fingers that the next book releases soon! 


"The road to hell was paved with blood and sorrow. But at the end of that road was an empire, the devil, and my salvation."
