8/28/2023 0 Comments Cinder books in order![]() ![]() ![]() It was maybe not as good as the rest of the series, but definitely still very enjoyable. Through Winter’s POV we saw sooner in the series that they used to be very close as kids, and that she missed it a lot, so it’s really satisfying to see them reunited at last. One other thing I really enjoyed is seeing more of the relationship between Cinder and Selene. I don’t know, I thought it might be a pretty good example for the rogue packs! One thing also that bothered me is the fact that no one considered that Ze’ev was actually like them, fought alongside Cinder, and found happiness. Except they forgot to consider that maybe she was telling the truth. And the wolves say by acting like that she is exactly like her aunt: not listening to them. Cinder doesn’t want to be like her aunt, and manipulate everyone, both with the Lunar gift and genetically. Of course it’s understandable that they want to put all of this behind them (and it’s also a very interesting plot device). We got glimpses of Wolf’s training in Stars Above and we saw how awful and dehumanizing it was. And even though their acts are honestly dumb and harming everyone, their reasons are valid: they want to be human again, restored to who they were before they were turned into the packs. Here, we get to meet those who were stationed on Earth and have turned rogue, refusing to obey to Cinder/Selene’s orders. We do learn more about them in Winter when the princess manages to rally some of them to their cause, and I thought it was definitely interesting. When we first encounter them, they are really a mystery, and though Wolf is one of the main characters, there is really a lot of unknown surrounding them. We obviously also get to read more about the Wolf packs and I thought it was very interesting. I have to say, it is very heartbreaking: as I’m sure you did too, I consider Iko equally with the other characters. As Cinder was (and still is in this book, though not as much as previously maybe) Iko is faced with a lot of prejudice, and people just considering her as an object – and a faulty one at that. Iko is a very unique android and I’m sure every reader grew fond of her during the series, and in Wires and Nerve we get to see her play an even important role, as she is on a solo mission, rather than part of the Rampion crew. I am still unsure what to think of his character, but one thing I’m sure of is how adorable it is to see Iko all flustered by him whatever he does. Through the series, we meet again our favourite characters as they help Iko on her mission, and we even get to see Kinney again, interacting with both Cinder, and of course Iko, as was very obviously implied in Winter. ![]() Wires and Nerve is a graphic novel, the first book in a new series by Marissa Meyer, following The Lunar Chronicles straight where they ended, and centring on Iko and her mission to rid the Earth of the wolf packs that were send by Levana as an act of war. Genre: YA, Graphic Novel, Fantasy/Dystopia ![]()
