Cinder is a
cyborg but she has no recollection of her life before the surgery. Now she works as a mechanic and brings in
money for her stepmother. Meanwhile,
there is a plague threatening the people of earth and the prince is being
pressured to marry the Queen of Luna. Cinder
soon finds that not only is she immune to the plague but she is also a
Lunar. How did she get to earth in the
first place? Who is she really? This
retelling of Cinderella features cyborgs, plagues, and androids but still
maintains stepmothers, a ball, and a missing shoe. This time though the missing shoe is attached
to a robotic foot.
I
really enjoyed this Cinderella version.
I am a big fan of alternate versions of fairy tales and I like a good
science fiction novel. There were enough
elements of the classic Cinderella to make it recognizable but had enough
differences to make it intriguing. I am
looking forward to reading the sequel.
