ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Cress" by Marissa Meyer is a science fiction novel that reimagines the fairytale of Rapunzel. The story follows Cress, a talented hacker trapped in a satellite, who gets caught up in a rebellion against the evil Queen Levana of Luna. The plot weaves together multiple storylines, focusing on identity, freedom, and the fight against oppression. The narrative combines action, romance, and political intrigue, and explores the ethical dimensions of science and technology such as mind control and cyborgs. Key to the plot is Cress's character arc as she transitions from a captive to an active rebel, while also revealing that the plague is a Lunar weapon. The book also sets up the final conflict in the series.
