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.
New York Times-bestselling author Marissa Meyer reveals the story behind her fascinating villain in
Fairest, an unforgettable tale about love and war, deceit and death. This extraordinary book includes a special full-color image of Levana's castle and an excerpt from
Winter, the exciting conclusion to The Lunar Chronicles.
