I have a major complaint. This book is too short. Damn it, you tease me with "hey, there's a damsel in distress, let's save her" plot and you nearly kill her and a space captain with a falling orbiting satellite straight out of Gravity, kidnap and torture of a red head space pilot which drove the wolf boy to madness so that Cinder could rescue one earth boy on the verge of marrying Queen Beryl. How does that sound? Madness! 
 Other than that, I can't wait for Princess Winter's story. I am glad that there are more Cinder in the book and even if the romance was sudden, it was terribly cute. I guess, Cress was Sailor Venus but I'm glad that her similarities ended right there. She could have been an easy one dimensional damsel character but she turn up fine and spunky enough to handle Thorne. I think the multiple narratives bulk up the book considerably but it was an easy book to read and like. 2015 does seem to be far now...
