Synopsis:
In this stunning bridge book
between Cress and Winter in the bestselling Lunar Chronicles, Queen Levana’s
story is finally told.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Who is the fairest of them all?
Fans of the Lunar Chronicles know
Queen Levana as a ruler who uses her “glamour” to gain power. But long before
she crossed paths with Cinder, Scarlet, and Cress, Levana lived a very
different story – a story that has never been told . . . until now.
Marissa Meyer spins yet another
unforgettable tale about love and war, deceit and death. This extraordinary
book includes full-color art and an excerpt from Winter, the next book in the Lunar Chronicles series.

Review:
Review:
“Every villain is a hero in his
own mind.” –Tom Hiddleston
This is exactly how I would
describe Levana after reading Fairest.
The revelations about the Lunar queen
in this book are very surprising and enlightening. It didn’t make me like
Levana, but it did make me understand her.
I’ve thought of Queen Levana as
the wicked, selfish queen, but she’s surprisingly unselfish in her intentions to rule Earth. In a way, I respect her
for that, but everything else she did overshadowed that one redeeming quality
about her. Still, it’s really good to know her story and what made her what she
is in the Lunar Chronicles.
I was really surprised to
discover that Queen Levana was once an obsessed and a vain (still is) girl. Reading
about it, I couldn’t decide if it’s annoying or embarrassing. Being inside her
head sometimes made me cringe.
Fairest has been a very interesting read. Queen Levana is more than
a villain; she is a really twisted
villain.
Oh, I almost forgot. I had no
idea that Lunars are naturally a
crazy lot.
