Book Review - Evil Queen Levana’s Backstory Finally Told in Fairest

Published on January 27, 2015, Fairest, the prequel of The Lunar Chronicles written by Marissa Meyer, reveals the horrifying past behind Levena, the evil lunar queen. Fairest tells the stunning tale of how this queen became the Evil Queen Levana that The Lunar Chronicles' readers know about today.

Fairest is a book that will make readers see Levena as a victim instead of a villain. It’s filled with action, glamour, and betrayal. Even if you haven’t read The Lunar Chronicles, this sci-fi fantasy might interest you.

Reading Fairest was an amazing experience for Lunar Chronicle knowledge. It makes readers understand why Levena is who she is today. Goodreads.com says that Fairest fills the holes in the first three books and gives readers a new view of Levena. You also get to learn more about the people who shaped Levena, and how they did it. We would recommend this book to anyone who likes sci-fi fantasy and is interested in an old fairytale with a new twist.

On marissameyer.com, it tells us that Marissa Meyer, the author of Fairest, lives in Tacoma, Washington and has liked fairy tales since she was a child. She started The Lunar Chronicles by submitting a story into a contest a sci-fi version of “Puss in Boots”. She realized it was fun and started making The Lunar Chronicles what they are today. She is currently working on a series about superheroes who are teenagers.
