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.

  7. Even though I have mad love for all the characters, my favorite would have to be Cinder. She was just amazingly complex and brave and good. I love her so much.

  8. Scarlet or Wolf….She is a redhead…..so top marks for that obviously and I love the complex emotions that are embodied in wolf…fighting himself, his past…I guess we can all relate to that from time to time.

  24. Cress. She is completely and wonderfully adorable!

  25. CAPTAIN CARSWELL THORNE, hands down.
    Favorite quote from Cress, I believe:
    Cress: "Do you think it was destiny that brought us together?"
    Thorne: "No. I'm pretty sure it was Cinder.”
    I died of laughter. He makes me laugh and I love characters who make me laugh.
