The release date for the English version of 'Stars Above' by Marissa Meyer is Feb 2016. If you enjoy this novel, it is available for buy as a paperback from Barnes & Noble or Indigo, as an ebook on the Amazon Kindle store, or as an audiobook on Audible.

The fantastical, violent, and romantic tales and mysteries exist in the Lunar Chronicles world. How did Cinder get to New Beijing in the first place? How did the sullen soldier Wolf become a murderer at the age of twenty-one? When did Jacin, the palace guard, and Princess Winter realise they were meant to be together? Stars Above, a book by Marissa Meyer about the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland, contains nine tales (five of which have never been published before) and is a must-read for lovers of the critically acclaimed and best-selling Lunar Chronicles.
