Cinder returns in the second thrilling installment of the New York Times-bestselling Lunar Chronicles.

She’s trying to break out of prison—even though if she succeeds, she’ll be the Commonwealth’s most wanted fugitive. Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit’s grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn’t know about her grandmother and the grave danger she has lived in her whole life.

When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother’s whereabouts, she has no choice but to trust him, though he clearly has a few dark secrets of his own. As Scarlet and Wolf work to unravel one mystery, they find another when they cross paths with Cinder. Together, they must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen who will do anything to make Prince Kai her husband, her king, her prisoner.

Review of 'Scarlet' on 'Goodreads'

This entertaining YA novel continues the story of Linh Cinder who is on the run from authorities, especially the evil lunar queen Levana. As additional protagonist we meet Scarlet, a young French woman whose life changes when her grandmother is kidnapped for her knowledge about Princess Selene. Her story is a loose retelling of Little Red Riding Hood.

The story is fast paced, the good characters are very likeable and all in all it's great light entertainment.
