Characters Anarchists Renegades Renegade Council Publicity Publicity for Renegades included social media posts on Meyer's Twitter account, chapter releases, as well as a cover reveal with the LA Times. There was also heavy use of the hashtags #JointheRenegades and #WinRenegades, book giveaways, and book swag such as sunglasses, pens, slap bracelets, and at conferences such as BookExpo. In anticipation for the release date there were multiple giveaways, one for a Renegades-themed trip to YallFest, a chance to have your own character featured in the Renegades sequel, and a photo contest to win an advanced copy of the book. Two limited-edition exclusive editions of the novel were produced and released through Target and Barnes & Noble. Meyer also offered a pre-order incentive, where those who pre-ordered the novel could submit their receipt and receive exclusive Renegades-themed buttons. An entire website was created dedicated to the novel, and the pages are slowly added in order to tease fans and get them excited for the novel's release. On October 3, 2017, a Facebook Live event took place in which fans could ask Meyer questions, and hear her read an excerpt from the novel. Sequels Two sequels have been released; Archenemies was published on December 14, 2018, with Renegades, and the final installment in the trilogy, Supernova, was released on October 29, 2019. About a fourth novel, Meyer said that she didn't "currently have plans to write more in the Renegades universe". Reception Publishers Weekly gave it a starred review on October 9, calling it, "a strikingly grounded story of star-crossed would-be lovers, deception, and the recognition that most of humanity exists between the extremes of good and evil". Common Sense Media rated the book at four stars, writing "Slow start, but much intrigue in supervillain/hero tale." Renegades hit the New York Times bestseller list for Young Adult Hardcovers at number 2 the week of November 26, 2017.
