Pure evil has a name, hides behind a mask of deceit, and uses her "glamour" to gain power. But who is Queen Levana? Long before she crossed paths with Cinder, Scarlet, and Cress in The Lunar Chronicles, Levana lived a very different story―a story that has never been told . . . until now.

Short and Sweet Review

I love the Lunar Chronicles so of course I wasn’t going to miss out on getting Fairest a story all about Queen Levana! It explained everything that happened before Cinder, Scarlet, and Cress came into her life. This book was crazy but it was good. Just learning about Levana was eye opening! The struggles she went through when she was younger helped explain her motives. We experience her childhood, teenage years, and some part of her adult life. I did feel bad for some of the things Levana experienced in life it seemed like things just wouldn’t get easier for her. I really liked reading from her point of view it really explains her motives in the other books. I loved this book and would recommend the whole Lunar Chronicles series to everyone.
