A forbidden romance. A deadly plague. Earth's fate hinges on one girl . . .
Cinder, a gifted mechanic in New Beijing, is also a cyborg. She's reviled by her stepmother and blamed for her stepsister's sudden illness. But when her life becomes entwined with the handsome Prince Kai's, she finds herself at the centre of a violent struggle between the desires of an evil queen – and a dangerous temptation. Cinder is caught between duty and freedom, loyalty and betrayal. Now she must uncover secrets about her mysterious past in order to protect Earth's future.
A perfect blend of fairy tale romance and thrilling science fiction, The Lunar Chronicles will appeal to readers who loved Scott Westerfeld's Uglies series.
