![]() ![]() The great thing about this one is the opportunity to get up close and personal with the series' antagonist. So with the mature content, this is definitely a teen series. ![]() Her sister Channery is a worse queen, ordering her favorite seamstress' feet removed so the poor woman can concentrate on her sewing, as well as sleeping with lots of men (never described) before becoming pregnant, happy that she doesn't know the father of the baby. She's embroiled in assassinations by stabbing, gunshot, and fire (a near-assassination in that case) and brainwashes a man into having sex with her (not described, but she's 16 at the time). As the fairy-tale homage unfolds, we see Levana become more like the queen in "Snow White": more ambitious, envious, vain, insecure, and completely lacking in empathy. ![]() It's the shorter story of how the Lunar Queen Levana got to be her evil self. Parents need to know that rabid readers of the bestselling Lunar Chronicles series will want to get their hands on this prequel. ![]()
