ReviewsThis collection ends with a happily ever after for everyone. ... will not disappoint fans and will make a worthy addition to libraries where the "Lunar Chronicles" are popular. - School Library Journal This variety of short pieces enriches the series, using several different approaches to add to Meyer's fantasy world and its fascinating characters. "The Mechanic," for example, toys with perspective by describing Cinder and Kai's first meeting from his point of view, while several prequels delve into character backstories and provide more detail to incidents alluded to in Meyer's other works. Many of the stories explore childhood experiences to develop characterization, and in a few instances, the tales consider some of the questions of selfhood and social responsibility that Meyer's full-length novels delve into more deeply.Sure to delight fans... While most of these short stories cater toward audiences already familiar with the Lunar Chronicles , those who have enjoyed Meyer's sci-fi fairy tale retellings will relish the chance to dip their toes more deeply into this rich world. - VOYA, starred review
