About this listen

The third instalment in the best-selling Lunar Chronicles series, following Cinder and Scarlet.

Incarcerated in a satellite, an expert hacker and out to save the world - Cress isn't your usual damsel in distress.

Cress grew up as a prisoner. With only netscreens for company, she's forced to do the bidding of the evil Queen Levana. Now that means tracking down Cinder and her handsome accomplice, Emperor Kai. But little does Levana know that those she seeks, and the man she loves, are plotting her downfall....

As paths cross and the price of freedom rises, happily ever after has never seemed further away for Cress, Scarlet and Cinder. This is not the fairy tale you remember. But it's one you won't forget.

Critic Reviews

"Once again, Meyer offers up a science fiction fantasy page-turner that salutes women's intelligence and empowerment." ( Booklist)
"The momentum Meyer built in the first two books continues to accelerate as the stakes grow higher for Cinder and her friends. The next instalment cannot come fast enough." ( Publishers Weekly)

Cress, the 3rd book in the Lunar Chronicles held another strong narrative. Meyer wove the stories together perfectly and ended with yet another cliff hanger! Great read. I'm loving the characters!

Great 3rd book in the series!

It’s a good twist on the classic stories.
I love Cress she’s so cute but also becomes a strong character.
Slightly predictable and very PG but it’s a good listen.

Good stories with interesting twists

The story itself is wonderful of course, but Rebecca See brings it to life in a way I’ve never experienced with an audiobook. Ever character has such a distinct voice that you know exactly who is talking without any context, and can tell exactly what they’re feeling!

Rebecca Soler is a queen

At times it was a bit frustrating but in a good way... when everything kinda worked out (did it?), it was amazing. Loved listening. Recommend. Can't wait for the next.

Amazing

I certainly prefer this book to the second book in the series. I enjoyed the majority of the book, but I found the parts of the book in Africa. really interesting, along with the Android stuff.

a highlight of the book is certainly the stealth sequence in new beijing's palace, too. I can easily recommend this book.

my second favourite oftthe series.
