Publisher's summary

Humans and androids crowd the raucous streets of New Beijing. A deadly plague ravages the population. From space, a ruthless lunar people watch, waiting to make their move. No one knows that Earth’s fate hinges on one girl....

Cinder, a gifted mechanic, is a cyborg. She’s a second-class citizen with a mysterious past, reviled by her stepmother and blamed for her stepsister’s illness. But when her life becomes intertwined with the handsome Prince Kai’s, she suddenly finds herself at the center of an intergalactic struggle, and a forbidden attraction. Caught between duty and freedom, loyalty and betrayal, she must uncover secrets about her past in order to protect her world’s future.

Enjoyed

I am so glad I decided to get this book. I am a lover of fairytales and love the retelling of them. I can't wait to listen to the rest of the series.

Marissa Meyer is a powerful writer.

Her take on an old fairy tale is simply amazing. Cinder the little cyborg mechanic for know where steals your heart as quickly as she steals the prince's. This amazing mix of an old idea and a new world order is so well done it feels like a natural thing. Queen Lavana and her lunar court are some of the best villains I've read in a long time.

Great Book

This is a fun book with a lot of characters to love. At times it's predictable, but the author takes classic characters and integrates their stories really well with each other. I loved listening to this book series!

Amazing

Any additional comments?

This book was incredible. I have become addicted to this series! I love all the hidden fairytale references in this book. I also read Scarlett, the second book of this series which is just as captivating. I am so sad I have to wait a year to read the next book! I totally recommend this book. The performance was also very good. I also like how they kept the same reader for the 2 books so far.
