As part of Boston Public Library's Teen Volunteer Program, teens share their thoughts on books, movies, and more on our blog. This week, Lou Munger, a teen volunteer at the Roslindale Branch, is sharing his review of Legionnaire by Jason Anspach and Nick Cole:
Legionnaire is a Sci-Fi novel, the first in the 'Galaxy’s Edge' series. The book follows a unit of elite soldiers (Legionnaires) who fight to defend the Republic, as they attempt to defy the odds and survive deep in enemy territory after an operation gone-wrong.
I was extremely drawn to the characters in this book because they are complex and the emphasis on the brotherhood formed by the soldiers made me feel almost as though I was fighting alongside them. I was also captivated by the intense action as well as the many twists and turns that occurred throughout the novel.
I would recommend this novel to anyone who likes military-themed books or Sci-Fi in general.
