Goodreads Synopsis:

Rapunzel’s tower is a satellite. She can’t let down her hair—or her guard.

In this third book in the bestselling Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army.

Their best hope lies with Cress, who has been trapped on a satellite since childhood with only her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker—unfortunately, she’s just received orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice.

When a daring rescue goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing stop her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only ones who can.

Why?:

I have thus far immensely enjoyed the first two books in this series, both of which I only read recently. The second book was even better than the first. The covers are gorgeous. And I cannot wait to get this book. It’s going to be so pretty, and I just know it’s going to be good. I can’t wait to meet the new characters, to find out what happens to Cinder next. And Kai, ugh! To see more of Scarlet and Wolf. I’m just so excited. I’m glad it’ll be out soon, but on the other hand, dreading having to wait a year for the fourth, and final, book.
