In this novel, Cinder, that is the English title of Cinderella Cinderella tale is a cyborg, that is to say a woman half human and half robot. This is precisely the steampunk as lon found here. And lon can say that our heroine has an iron will! I've also enjoyed the Kai prince who meets Cinder the mechanics to repair his android. It is a sympathetic character but it is not provided very engaging because it can not be said that he is very present.
The story touches on an interesting theme that is the difference. Cinder sees his freedom hampered by his stepmother, Adri, who sees it as an object and therefore as his property. But that eponymous character is different from the usual heroines. Jai delighted to follow his adventures.
All this takes place in a world that is more futuristic but far from being ideal: robots galore, an incurable disease, Earth and Moon are inhabited, and this after a fourth world war. This world is dailleurs quite realistic, I have not been wrong in my diving. However, some additional details about the origin of this world nauraient not been too much.
Bunch of events through the narrative: on the one hand, it comes to discover the origins of Cinder, but especially against the lantidote létumose, this incurable disease in question throughout the novel. On the other hand, the summary of the book draws us on the idea of a conspiracy between the Earth and the Moon, planets voltage, negotiation and perhaps to war soon. This is in this respect that other characters, called the Lunar, will join history and its problems.
In this rewriting, there are elements that make some winks to Flirted original story, specifically the division into several parts, decorated with some quotes. However, there is no question of flat and sugary romance in this book called "young-adult". Universe and the plot are the two main assets of Cinder. They are very addictive and Mount literally enchanted (this is case to say!).
Certainly some revelations are predictable but that does not spoil the fun. Vocabulary is very accessible, although a small definition of terms like "cyborg" or "android" would have been preferable.
But the real pleasure of this play is definitely addictive pen Marissa Meyer gives a sacred rhythm in history! There is no dead time! I read this novel in two installments (one half each time, this is the fastest).
Who would want to meet a modern-day Cinderella? This splendid rewriting transpose you into a futuristic universe, with an interesting plot and well put together, and especially a significant heroin, a highly addictive rhythm! In short, a wonderful story to be enjoyed in just a few hours.
