The award-winning DC Icons story of the world's greatest super hero: WONDER WOMAN by the # 1 New York Times bestselling author LEIGH BARDUGO.

/> "You??ll enjoy this book whether you??re a fan of Wonder Woman comics, the Wonder Woman movie, Leigh Bardugo, or just YA lit in general." ??Hypable
She will become one of the world's greatest heroes: WONDER WOMAN. But first she is Diana, Princess of the Amazons. And her fight is just beginning. . . . 
Diana longs to prove herself to her legendary warrior sisters. But when the opportunity finally comes, she throws away her chance at glory and breaks Amazon law??risking exile??to save a mere mortal. Even worse, Alia Keralis is no ordinary girl and with this single brave act, Diana may have doomed the world.
 
Alia just wanted to escape her overprotective brother with a semester at sea. She doesn't know she is being hunted. When a bomb detonates aboard her ship, Alia is rescued by a mysterious girl of extraordinary strength and forced to confront a horrible truth: Alia is a Warbringer??a direct descendant of the infamous Helen of Troy, fated to bring about an age of bloodshed and misery.
 
Together, Diana and Alia will face an army of enemies??mortal and divine??determined to either destroy or possess the Warbringer. If they have any hope of saving both their worlds, they will have to stand side by side against the tide of war.
"Feminism is the invisible jet powering this literary revamp of the Amazon princess." ??The New York Times Book Review
"Warning: This novel about the young super hero crossing paths with a seemingly ordinary??but seriously powerful??girl may result in multiple fist pumps." ??Seventeen

Wat een heerlijk boek is dit. Ik heb echt met volle teugen genoten van de avonturen van Diana, Alia, Theo, Nim en Jason.
Diana woont met alleen maar vrouwen op een eiland ver van alles af. Op het eiland wonen vrouwen die beloond zijn voor de dingen die ze hebben gedaan en daardoor Amazones zijn geworden. De moeder van Diana is er koningin en Diana is de enige die op het eiland geboren is. Het boek vertelt dat zij door haar moeder is gevormd uit het zand van het eiland. Als Diana op een dag meedoet aan een hardloopwedstrijd over het eiland ziet zij op de zee een schip in nood. Ze ziet een meisje dat zich wanhopig vastklemt aan het schip. Diana kan bijna niet anders dan proberen het meisje te redden. Ze verbergt Alia in een grot en gaat naar het Orakel van het eiland om te vragen wat ze kan doen. Het Orakel zegt Alia de macht heeft om oorlog te brengen naar de aarde en omdat te voorkomen moet ze haar terugbrengen naar de menselijke wereld, met name naar Griekenland, naar de bron van Helena van Troje.
Met wat magie brengt ze Alia terug, maar ze komen in New York terecht en daar begint de reis naar Griekenland. Samen met Jason, de broer van Alia, diens vriend Theo en met Alia's vriendin Nim gaan ze op reis. Geholpen door het kapitaal uit de stichting van de ouders van Jason en Alia. Maar onderweg krijgen ze veel tegenwerking van de mensen, die soms de gedaante aannemen van Griekse goden die allemaal voor oorlog, tegenslag, ontrouw, misdaad en algehele malaise zijn.

Het is heerlijk geschreven, met humor en veel spanning. Verhaal vooral over trouw, vertrouwen en vriendschap. ( )

This book was such a different read then what i expected. The highlights of this read were that we did get to see diana as such a young girl. I really liked seeing her adapt to the different environments she was in. I also loved the group of characters that became the gang in this read. I loved how this book was heavily inspired by greek elements and almost remind me of percy jackson novel with a clear plot and clear end point. It was such a fun read and I really loved the strong diversity of this read and also how this book was framed. I loved how this book compare and contrasts diana with the warbringer and that was the highlight of the story along with the focus on female friendships. Very fun read! ( )

I love DC Comics, the DCEU, and superheroes. When I found out this series was even a thing, I was absolutely thrilled! Add in that different authors get the chance to write about different characters and that was a bonus!

This time around it's Princess Diana/Wonder Woman taking the lead written by Leigh Bardugo.

Princess Diana doesn't exactly fit in Themyscira. All of the other warrior women died in battle and were brought there to live. Her Mother crafted her from the earth so she was born to be there, she didn't earn it. It makes her stand out and because she's a teenager (much younger than her immortal sisters) she's different. Her differences in ethics are shown when Alia Keralis' ship is attacked and destroyed, and somehow ends up on Themyscira. Typically, no human can even find them and yet here she is. Diana saves her, which is likely the opposite of every other woman on the island. When Diana learns more about Alia, she decides to help this Warbringer become a normal girl and stop the age of war from coming back.

This book is super well written but it is WAAAAAY too long. It has probably an extra one hundred to two hundred pages that could have been shaved off and given the same effect. Regardless, this was a powerful story of friendship and staying true to yourself (and your ethics!).

Leigh did a marvelous job of making these characters feel real despite the insane events going on around them. And to top it off, the cast was extremely diverse and inclusive! It's a great story that fits Princess Diana and Wonder Woman perfectly.

Also - that cover! Fantastic.

Overall, great read but definitely too long.

Three out of five stars. ( )

Warbringer provides a new origin story for Diana (never actually called Wonder Woman in the novel). This is the first time I have seen a DC character in novel form, and it was an interesting take. I can definitely see Leigh's style embedded in the work, with the commentary on people liking villains, and the secret antagonist reveal - not to mention the lover-to-enemy role he plays and the bit about making a new world together - ohh boy was that familiar!!!. Overall I enjoyed the work, it was a fun read, but not mind-blowingly so. ( )
