Synopsis
Princess Winter is admired by the Lunar people for her grace and kindness, and despite the scars that mar her face, her beauty is said to be even more breathtaking than that of her stepmother, Queen Levana.
Winter despises her stepmother, and knows Levana won't approve of her feelings for her childhood friend--the handsome palace guard, Jacin. But Winter isn't as weak as Levana believes her to be and she's been undermining her stepmother's wishes for years. Together with the cyborg mechanic, Cinder, and her allies, Winter might even have the power to launch a revolution and win a war that's been raging for far too long.
Can Cinder, Scarlet, Cress, and Winter defeat Levana and find their happily ever afters? Fans will not want to miss this thrilling conclusion to Marissa Meyer's national bestselling Lunar Chronicles series.
Reviews
A very disappointing end to what started off as a great series. It definitely felt as if Meyer were just going through the motions to finish the book contract. The writing was repetitive, formulaic, with no surprises or spark. While I thought Meyer meant to emphasize that its the beauty within that matters, revealing Levanas deformity as a way to alien her from the people seemed superficial shes deformed, so now we know shes evil!, while Winters physical beauty but mental instability was proof she was a true heroine. To me, Winter seemed whiny and high maintenance, not something to aspire to. This book paled in comparison to the previous books in the series.
