Cinder: Book One of the Lunar Chronicles (The Lunar Chronicles #1)
by Marissa MeyerThe #1 New York Times Bestselling Series!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. Marissa Meyer on Cinder, writing, and leading menWhich of your characters is most like you?I wish I could say that I'm clever and mechanically-minded like Cinder, but no—I can't fix anything. I'm much more like Cress, who makes a brief cameo in Cinder and then takes a more starring role in the third book. She's a romantic and a daydreamer and maybe a little on the naïve side—things that could be said about me too—although she does find courage when it's needed most. I think we'd all like to believe we'd have that same inner strength if we ever needed it. Where do you write?I have a home office that I've decorated with vintage fairy tale treasures that I've collected (my favorite is a Cinderella cookie jar from the forties) and NaNoWriMo posters, but sometimes writing there starts to feel too much like work. On those days I'll write in bed or take my laptop out for coffee or lunch.If you were stranded on a desert island, which character from Cinder would you want with you?Cinder, definitely! She has an internet connection in her brain, complete with the ability to send and receive comms (which are similar to e-mails). We'd just have enough time to enjoy some fresh coconut before we were rescued. The next book in the Lunar Chronicles is called Scarlet, and is about Little Red Riding Hood. What is appealing to you most about this character as you work on the book?Scarlet is awesome—she's very independent, a bit temperamental, and has an outspokenness that tends to get her in trouble sometimes. She was raised by her grandmother, an ex-military pilot who now owns a small farm in southern France, who not only taught Scarlet how to fly a spaceship and shoot a gun, but also to have a healthy respect and appreciation for nature. I guess that's a lot of things that appeal to me about her, but she's been a really fun character to write! (The two leading men in Scarlet, Wolf and Captain Thorne, aren't half bad either.)
Cress (Las Crónicas Lunares #3)
by Marissa MeyerÉrase una vez, en el futuro... La malévola reina Levana está a punto de salirse con la suya.Solo una poderosa alianza podría evitarlo.Pero el tiempo se agota... Cress es el tercer volumen de la saga «Las crónicas lunares». Cress es una chica de dieciséis años que ha vivido toda su vida encerrada en un satélite, sin más compañía que las pantallas que la rodean. Atrapada en esta prisión se ha convertido en una hacker estupenda, pero sus captores la fuerzan a emplear sus habilidades para ayudar a la malvada reina Levana a encontrar a Cinder y entregarla a su majestad. Sin embargo, cuando Cress da con Cinder y su acompañante, el Capitán Thorne, los fugitivos le ofrecen una alternativa que no puede rechazar: si ella les ayuda a boicotear los planes de Levana para casarse con el emperador Kai, Cinder y Thorne (juntamente con Scarlett y Wolf), rescatarán a Cress de su confinamiento. Ahora bien, tras el fallido intento de rescate, el grupo se divide: Cress consigue su libertad, pero a cambio de un precio mucho más alto de lo que había previsto. Los lectores dicen... «Las Crónicas Lunares, con las portadas originales, y son preciosas. Son versiones de los cuentos tradicionales pero aplicados a historias de ciencia ficción más futuristas como la Cenicienta, Caperucita Roja o Rapunzel».Javier Ruescas en Youtube «Estoy enamorada de la historia y de los personajes de Marissa Meyer, no lo puedo evitar, cada vez que me embarco en un nuevo libro me gusta más y más todo lo que descubro. Un libro redondo con buena ambientación, estupendos personajes y una trama que atrapa hasta el final. Excelente».Letras, libros y más «Cress es una novela sin desperdicio alguno. La espera ha valido muchísimo la pena». «El libro más intenso que he leído de la saga por el momento. Por mucho que lo intentes no puedes dejar de leer. Con unos personajes que en cada página te gustan más». «Se sale de lo corriente y hace que te zambullas en una historia que no sabes por dónde va a salir en cada capítulo. Simplemente genial». «No os podéis imaginar lo que crece esta historia, y lo enganchado que puede tener al lector. Un tercer libro lleno de acción, humor, amor, lealtades y desafíos. Me ha encantado».

Cress (Lunar Chronicles #3)
by Marissa MeyerIn this third book in Marissa Meyer's bestselling Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, now with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and prevent her army from invading Earth. Their best hope lies with Cress, a girl trapped on a satellite since childhood who’s only ever had her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker. Unfortunately, she’s being forced to work for Queen Levana, and she’s just received orders to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice. When a daring rescue of Cress goes awry, the group is splintered. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a higher price than she’d ever expected. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing prevent her marriage to Emperor Kai, especially the cyborg mechanic. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only hope the world has.
