Cinder
Overview & Summary
In a futuristic, plague-ravaged New Beijing, Cinder is a talented mechanic and cyborg treated as a second-class citizen because of her mechanical parts, until a chance encounter with the handsome Prince Kai pulls her into a web of palace intrigue, an alien lunar queen's threats, and the discovery of secrets about her own forgotten past. Marissa Meyer's novel reimagines the Cinderella fairy tale as science fiction, launching the Lunar Chronicles series.
