Review

Marissa Meyer returns with the second volume of the graphic novel series based on the Meyer’s Lunar Chronicles. Steele and his army of genetically engineered wolfe-army need to be stopped before they can attack Lunar Queen Cinder and endanger the peace between Earth and Luna. Steele is convinced that Cinder has the power to undo the mutations and make them human again. Meanwhile, Cinder has announced her plan to abdicate her throne and hold elections on Luna. The action and romantic tension of the series continue in this book, and series characters Iko, Winter, Scarlet, and fight in the battle that will decide the fate of the Cinder and all of Luna. Stephen Gilpin’s images are created in blue tones that visually set a sci-fi tone. Fans of Meyer’s sci-fi, fractured fairy tale world will not be disappointed.

Overall Book Score: very good
