About this listen
The second thrilling audiobook in the best-selling Lunar Chronicles series by Marissa Meyer.
Scarlet Benoit's grandmother is missing. The police have closed her case. The only person Scarlet can turn to is Wolf, a street fighter she does not trust, but they are drawn to each other.
Meanwhile, in New Beijing, Cinder will become the Commonwealth's most wanted fugitive - when she breaks out of prison to stay one step ahead of vicious Queen Levana.
As Scarlet and Wolf expose one mystery, they encounter Cinder, and a new one unravels. Together they must challenge the evil queen, who will stop at nothing to make Prince Kai her husband, her king, her prisoner....
This is not the fairy tale you remember. But it's one you won't forget.
©2013 Marissa Meyer (P)2013 Macmillan AudioCritic Reviews
"Returning fans of Meyer's Cinder will gladly sink their teeth into this ambitious, wholly satisfying sequel." ( Publishers Weekly)

Good
I fell like the first was better this was still good and I finished it in one day but kinda boring... maybe that's not the righty word... there wasn't as much of cinder tho I liked scarlet and wolf but it took longer to get used to them and I wasn't feeling the emotions as much as I'm the first... but still really good exited about the third (thank goodness I got a credit today)

good little story
Good sorry, I loved the parts that returned to Cinder. it has some well done parallels to the original fable. If you like YA fantasy, you'll like this book.

You'll get exactly what you expect
The story, and the writing, are extremely Young Adult. It's one of those books that younger readers will claim deserves a film adaptation, without realising how corny some of the characters will appear, when depicted on the big screen.
I'm specifically talking about the wolf people. They are men who act like wolves, howling on all fours. Yes, the book says they have fangs, and their actions are very violent, yet the actual imagery of it would simply be hilarious.
Very "Jacob from Twilight". The relationship between Cinder & Kai, is now in its second book and actually feels less developed than in the first book, since they spend almost the entire novel apart.
Conversely the relationship between Wolf and Scarlet has the opposite problem, it feels like it was full of tension, and will they/won't they, right up until suddenly an event occurs and now they are ready to die for one another and it's a fated romance.
I won't go on, but for all my criticisms, I still think the book satisfies a craving I had for angsty, teen, melodrama. If you have no problem with Young Adult tropes, than you will enjoy this book. It's that simple.

not as good as the first one, but it's still a nice book.
I liked the story and performance, but the books plot wasn't as interesting this time around. the forced romance is a bit weird and janky at times, too.
still, it's better than other fairytale inspired sci fi books I've read...

great story
loved the story, i really enjoyed the fairytail meets scifi and the fun sassy female characters
easy to listen to narrator but did found it weird that scarlett only got her fence accident at the end of the story once cinder got to france and scarlet found her g'ma
also sometimes the voices that were used for character spilled out into the storytelling/actions particularly towards the end. but still enjoyable
