The enchantment continues....
The universe of the Lunar Chronicles holds stories—and secrets—that are wondrous, vicious, and romantic. How did Cinder first arrive in New Beijing? How did the brooding soldier Wolf transform from young man to killer? When did Princess Winter and the palace guard Jacin realize their destinies?
With nine stories—five of which have never before been published—and an exclusive never-before-seen excerpt from Marissa Meyer’s upcoming novel, Heartless, about the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland, Stars Above is essential for fans of the bestselling and beloved Lunar Chronicles.
I listened to all the stories and mostly they were all pretty good. I didn't really care for the one entitled The Little Android. It didn't have any of the characters from previous stories, so it was just sort of a random story. I guess it would have been ok, but it didn't go with all the rest. In general, all the stories kind of had the feel of writing exercises or experiments that had been put aside and then they had all been gathered up for this one last book. They were good to read, but I guess it just sort of seemed like a last gasp of a series that the author and publisher just can't give up. That said, I was happy to hear the little snippet of Heartless and I'm definitely looking forward to that!
