Rapunzel's tower is a satellite. She can't let down her hair - or her guard.
In
this third book in the bestselling Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder and
Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, with Scarlet and Wolf in tow.
Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army.
Their
best hope lies with Cress, who has been trapped on a satellite since
childhood with only her netscreens as company. All that screen time has
made Cress an excellent hacker – unfortunately, she’s just received
orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice.
When
a daring rescue goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has
her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will
let nothing stop her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder
may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only ones
who can.
So I adored both Cinder and Scarlet, and can't wait to check out the next book in this series! I'm inturgued to see the twist on Rapunzel, as well as find out what happens to the characters we've already been introduced to. Above is all US release info because I couldn't find anything for the UK </3 but hopefully we don't have any longer to wait!
