That is, until she meets Bruce Wayne and they both realize that they may have a lot in common, even though they handled their situations very differently. Madeleine Wallace is harboring many of her own secrets from her own past and refuses to talk to any of the officers or investigators. And there he meets a girl that is his age, that is being held with the most dangerous villains that have been captured.

That all changes on his eighteenth birthday when he ends up in trouble with the law after trying to help them catch one of the elusive Nightwalkers who have started to plague the streets of Gotham City.Īnd his punishment requires him to do community service in none other than Arkham Asylum. Bruce and his friends are finishing up their senior year in high school, he is still heavily impacted by the loss of his parents at such a young age, but he is trying to live a life they would be proud of. This is a new take on Bruce Wayne’s origin story of becoming the one and only Batman. Also, I’ve never read anything by Marie Lu before (I know, I can’t believe it either, honestly) but now I plan on devouring everything, because I completely connected with this writing style and I never wanted to put this book down. I am not the biggest superhero fan, but I will admit I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Batman. “I can’t think of a story where the billionaire and the murderer end up happily ever after.” Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo ★★★
