" ― The Bulletin on Cinder "It's another Marissa Meyer roller-coaster ride, part science fiction/fantasy, part political machination with a hint of romance." ― Booklist , starred review of Scarlet "Meyer continues to show off her storytelling prowess. The next installment cannot come fast enough." ― Publishers Weekly , starred review of Cress “Meyer's series has sold well and achieved a degree of acclaim.

My Son Loves Marissa Meyer's Books!

I purchased this book series for my nine year-old son after he read and fell in love with Renegades and Archenemies, both by Marissa Meyer. He finished this series in about a six week period and absolutely loved the sci-fi-fairy-tale theme. Now he says Marissa Meyer is his favorite author and has requested I purchase more books written by her. These books are meant for older kids and teens, but he really enjoyed them.

My daughter loves these books

I have never seen my 10 year old daughter read books so fast. She said the author writes them with such detail and in a way that she feels like she is watching it on a big movie screen.

Great Gift

I ordered a these as a gift for my younger sister who is a avid reader. She had a couple of the books included in the boxed set. But unable to find the other parts of the series through normal means (shopping at bookstores). This was the next best option, she just finished all of the books a couple of days ago. She loved the whole saga.

Very nice set.

Great set. The books are nicely printed and all matching covers. Many of the books have bonus content in them. Only possible issue I see is fitting the books back into the box once they’ve been read.

YES!!! You should get this!

One of the best spins on fairytales I've ever encountered and sucks you in until you don't want to come back to reality. It's one of those series where you reread thousands of times and never get tired of the characters and drama. I beg you to get these! You won't regret it.

loved it

I read Cinder to make sure it would be ok for my 10 year old to read and I fell in love with the series. My kid and I are now racing to see who can finish them first.
