About this ebook

The #1 New York Times Bestselling Series!

Mirror, mirror, on the wall.
Who is the Fairest of them all?

Pure evil has a name, hides behind a mask of deceit, and uses her "glamour" to gain power. But who is Queen Levana? Long before she crossed paths with Cinder, Scarlet, and Cress in The Lunar Chronicles, Levana lived a very different story—a story that has never been told . . . until now. New York Times –bestselling author Marissa Meyer reveals the story behind her fascinating villain in Fairest, an unforgettable tale about love and war, deceit and death. This extraordinary book includes a special full-color image of Levana's castle and an excerpt from Winter, the exciting conclusion to The Lunar Chronicles.

The author didn't take the easy way out with this one. Many cheaply humanize their villains as the heroes of their own story, when oh! A twist! How far the mighty hath fallen! No, not Levana. Meyer writes Levana as a spore filled, rotted peach, bursting with wrongness and decay. The final fruit of a twisted tree at the center of a once-splendid garden that just happened to have been watered by the blood of innocents. Tl;dr, no wonder Levana's such a thunder-[pick your profanity].

I LOVE this book. Much darker compared to the other three books (expected, given it's about Levana's past), but profoundly deep. I never knew unrequited love could make such a good story. This book really fills in the shadows that will make the other books fuller and richer. Didn't think I would like this book because I much prefer happy love stories, but it is critical to understanding the world of The Lunar Chronicles and I couldn't put it down.

Wow! This book is definitely a must read for anyone else who has read the previous books. Simply amazing. It will change your perspective on the whole series, and more importantly Queen Levana, as you get to see her in another light. You simply can't help but feel something strong for her. I think this is one of the strongest and emotional books I have read in recent times. #Levana
