Publisher's summary

Humans and androids crowd the raucous streets of New Beijing. A deadly plague ravages the population. From space, a ruthless lunar people watch, waiting to make their move. No one knows that Earth’s fate hinges on one girl....

Cinder, a gifted mechanic, is a cyborg. She’s a second-class citizen with a mysterious past, reviled by her stepmother and blamed for her stepsister’s illness. But when her life becomes intertwined with the handsome Prince Kai’s, she suddenly finds herself at the center of an intergalactic struggle, and a forbidden attraction. Caught between duty and freedom, loyalty and betrayal, she must uncover secrets about her past in order to protect her world’s future.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

The best adaptation of Cinderella I have ever read!

This series is captivating and fresh. A new spin on an old story it has me waiting in anticipation for the next one. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has an appreciation for great writing and characters that you will fall in love with.

Fun, original, unexpected

Lots of people have tried to modernize and rewrite the fairytales we all know about the Regular person who discovers they are a princess. This isn’t that. You will figure out who the characters are, but you won’t see their story coming.

~ Lovely ~

I’m not generally a fan of re-written fairy tales, as they seem more cliche than creative. Yet this author has blown me away! A cyborg cinderella..?!? It’s amazing. Please read it, and enjoy!

Excellent

I started this for my 9 year old daughter and quickly got hooked. I'm now half way through Cress and in love with the characters, writing, and story.

One of the Good Ones

No joke, this series has me by a chokehold. Kai and Cinder’s relationship dynamic and development is absolutely golden. Perfect way to establish a series.

Re-read series every year! Highly recommend!

This is by far one of my favorite series. The story enraptures me the whole time and the audio performance is the best I’ve heard on audible!

A bit of a slow start but then….

The beginning chapters ramped up slowly, but once the momentum kicked in, the story went from a snowball to an avalanche!
