\"Scarlet\"<\/p>\n

Not only does this book continue the fantastic Cinder<\/em> storyline, but it adds a few new characters into the mix!\u00a0 The title character, Scarlet Benoit, is a teenage girl who has been raised by her grandmother on a small vegetable farm in Rieux, France.\u00a0 Her grandmother recently went missing, and while Scarlet is sure something must be very wrong for her grandmother to have left home without her portscreen [or even her ID chip], no one else seems very worried at all.\u00a0 Michelle Benoit is a kind and beloved, albeit eccentric, farmer who has no known enemies [as far as Scarlet believes, anyhow].\u00a0 And because there is not any evidence of foul play, the police claim they have no choice but to dismiss the case.\u00a0 Scarlet is pretty sure a street fighter named Wolf knows something that could help but, though she is inexplicably drawn to him, she isn\u2019t sure if she can bring herself to trust him.\u00a0 I can\u2019t really say any more without spoiling it, but trust me when I say that this series just keeps getting better!\u00a0 And, since The Lunar Chronicles will have at least two more installments \u2014 Cress<\/em> is due out in 2014 and Winter<\/em> is due out in 2015 \u2014 fans have plenty more to look forward to before the series ends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
