Overview
Step into a Renaissance-inspired world where magic is new, volatile, and feared. This three-book paperback set collects Marie Lu's acclaimed Young Elites trilogy, following Adelina Amouteru as she transforms from a scarred, unwanted daughter into one of the most powerful and dangerous Young Elites in the land. Across three escalating volumes, rival factions of magically gifted survivors clash over loyalty, ambition, and the price of power, while war threatens to consume seven nations. Dark and morally complex, this trilogy is a must-own bundle for fans of ambitious heroines and high-stakes political intrigue.

About the Books
Marie Lu's Young Elites trilogy is set in a plague-scarred, Renaissance-style world where survivors of a deadly fever sometimes emerge with extraordinary and unpredictable powers, known as malfettos or Young Elites. The story centers on Adelina Amouteru, a young woman disfigured and abused for her malfetto marking, who discovers a terrifying and seductive gift for illusion and destruction. As Adelina is drawn into a secret society of fellow Elites, she must decide whether to embrace the light or give in to the darkness within her — a choice that will determine the fate of nations. The trilogy opens with The Young Elites, introducing Adelina's turbulent rise and the shadowy Dagger Society. The Rose Society follows her descent into a colder, more ruthless version of herself as she builds her own faction and confronts old allies turned enemies. The Midnight Star brings the saga to its dramatic conclusion, forcing Adelina and her allies to reckon with prophecy, betrayal, and the true cost of power. This paperback collection lets readers experience Adelina's full arc in one cohesive, collectible set for fans of layered, character-driven YA fantasy.
