"There's a lot of moving parts in this fresh spin on "Cinderella," the first in a four-book series." -- Booklist, "What they [readers] do not know until they begin turning the pages of this fable-turned-dystopian-science-fiction novel, is that Meyer's embellishments create a spellbinding story of their own."

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 naive 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 emails). 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!

  • Good --- but leaves you hanging

    CINDER is the first book in The Lunar Chronicles series. It's a science fiction version of the Cinderella story, with a dash of STAR WARS and SAILOR MOON. Parts are brilliant --- Cinder, a cyborg, loses not only her shoe, but her entire prosthetic foot while fleeing the ball. Other parts are too predictable --- the Moon Princess, who is the same age as Cinder, is believed to be dead but her body was never found; guess who turns out to be Princess Selene? Worst of all, it ends abruptly just as the story starts getting exciting. I understand the rationale for a cliffhanger ending; this is Book One in a series, and the author wants you to buy the other books (unpublished as of this writing). In the past, series authors knew how to resolve SOME plot elements so that each individual book was ...
