A clever Sci-fy re-imagining of the classic Cinderella Story. 
 Cinder is cyborg (human with robot bits) and because of that she lives as a second class citizen in the city of New Beijing. Forced to work as a mechanic for her cruel stepmother she fixes everything mechanical, including herself. Follow her as the story unfolds and all the classic pieces hidden behind this cunningly written YA novel slowly reveal themselves. 
 Don't expect this to be your typical fairy tail. As good characters go, cinder belongs to the best among them. coupled with the best sidekick ever, a deliciously evil antagonist and a prince in need of saving. In short a read well worth your while.
