"An interesting mash up of fairy tales and science fiction . . . a cross between Cinderella, Terminator, and Star Wars." --Entertainment Weekly on the Lunar Chronicles She splayed her fingers on the back of the ship, annoyed at how her nerves were humming, like they couldn't decide if she should be afraid of him or flattered. Scarlet Benoit's grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn't know about her grandmother, or the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother's whereabouts, she is loath to trust this stranger, but is inexplicably drawn to him, and he to her. Halfway around the world, Cinder is back and trying to break out of prison--even though she'll be the Commonwealth's most wanted fugitive if she does. As Scarlet and Wolf unravel one mystery, they encounter another when they meet Cinder. Now, all of them must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen Levana. The adventure continues in this fresh fairytale retelling that combines elements of Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood. Don't miss the other books in The Lunar Chronicles series:Cinder

Another great book from the author.

'Little Red Riding Hood' with a strange twist. You can see the classic elements to the story but you also have no idea where it's gonna take you. It takes ones tiny part from the first book you almost forget and makes it the main focus. But no spoilers!
This is so far my favorite out of the series.

Scarlet and her wolf
Published by Lisa , 5 years ago
This story, like all in the series does not disappoint. Cinder and Scarlet team up to fight Queen Levana as more surprising secrets get revealed. These books blend seamlessly as each new story is brought in. I have enjoyed reading this series.
