EDIT#2: From the author herself: "Book Three: CRESS is inspired by Rapunzel, but rather than being trapped in a tower, Cress is stuck in a satellite orbiting Earth. She also happens to be a computer hacker forced to work for Queen Levana." EEEEEEEP. <3
EDIT#1: So I'm late, but I just realized there's a release date! February 4, 2014. WHY IS IT SO FAR AWAY? 02.04.2014 Cool pattern of numbers though, no? ;)

It will always be Kai and Cinder.

******TEASERS*******
Opening paragraph:
Her satellite made one full orbit around planet Earth every sixteen hours. It was a prison that came with an endlessly breathtaking view—vast blue oceans and swirling clouds and sunrises that set half the world on fire.
Teaser Sentence as Randomly Selected by Twitter. From page 28:
“I don’t mind the scars.” He shrugged, his eyes taking on a mischievous spark. “They hold better memories now than they used to.”

Are you absolutely sure you don't want to give it to me now??

Ugh.
Oh, and I had it straight from Marissa herself that, yes, Scarlet and Wolf will be in Cress with POVs!!!

OH. MY. GOD I THINK I HAVE MADE A MIRACULOUS DISCOVERY!

So, I was re-reading Cinder when I came upon the part where Dr. Erland is explaining why he hates the Queen so much and it's because his daughter-who is a shell- was supposedly murdered by the Queen. His daughters name is Crescent Moon. CRESCENT MOON. CRESCENT SHORT FOR CRESS BY ANY CHANCE !

CRESS PREDICTIONS:
SOOO Cress just happens to be hidden in a tower in a desert. A desert in Africa.That will be very helpful to get everyone together because... Who else do we know in Africa? Maybe a certain Lunar. Who's a doctor. And is waiting for Cinder to show up. And now she is ACTUALLY planning on showing up! I can't wait for Dr. Erland to see everyone. He will obviously know Thorne from TV, but wait until he meets Scarlet and Wolf. That reminds me... I guess Cress will end up in some relat...more

I am excited to read this as well as WINTER! If anyone else is looking for information regarding the future of THE LUNAR CHRONICLES (Specifically "Cress" and the finale "Winter") then look no further. I have dug through all the information I could find around the web and here you go:
>CRESS: will be out EARLY 2014 (Based on Rapunzel). Cress (short for Crescent Moon) is a computer hacker stuck in a satellite orbiting Earth, being forced to spy on the Earthen leaders for Queen Levana. Cress has...more

2014?!!! 2014?!!! Are you kidding me?! I just finished reading Scarlet five minutes so and am already dying for Cress to come out. At least I know she's making a third and fourth book of the series. Whew! But it's only about Cinder and Cress? :'(( What happened to Scarlet, Wolf, Iko, and my favorite character, CAPTAIN Thorne? Hopefully in Winter or better yet this book? Authors and I have a love- hate relationship; I love them when their books come out and they are AMAZING, and I absolutely hate...more

Edit: Oooh! Thanks to another reviewer I think Cress may be referring to "Crescent Moon", Dr. Erlund's daughter, mentioned in one of the previous books in this series.
I'm trying to figure out what a "Cress"; a plant, often used in salads, has to do with Rapunzel, a mythical character known mostly for her long, flowing hair. I wonder if the author really meant to title this book "Tress" which is the singular form of tresses and means "a lock of a woman's hair." It would make more sense for a sto...more

I can't wait. Cannot. WAIT. AH. CAN'TWAIT.
I will be the first one sprinting to Barnes and Noble the day this is published. 2014, get your little booty over here. I need this book. Now. It's going to be awesome. I can tell already.
Until then, I can't wait to see the cover. I'm sure it'll be gorgeous, as were the covers for Cinder and Scarlet. I don't know what else to say except I'm bursting with excitement for this and I can't wait to read it.

Just got back from Marissa's signing in Toronto. She told us a number of interesting versions of fairytales which have given me a number of different theories about this book. The biggest being?
CRESS AND THORNE FALL IN LOVE!
Basically Rapunzel's parents pawned her off to a witch after the witch gave her mother lettuce (her mother was craving lettuce while she was pregnant with Rapunzel. Also, curiously, both Cress and Rapunzel are types of lettuce). The witch locked Rapunzel into the typical to...more

I JUST FINISHED SCARLET AND I AM ALREADY DIEING. I NEED THIS BOOK. IT WILL BE LIKE AIR, I WILL NEVER BE FULLY ALIVE UNTIL I READ IT.
Seriously, I need this book.
Also, if you think about, all of the important characters (other than a few) already have love interests other than Cress and Thorn. Hmmm..... very interesting.

2014?!?! I can't wait that long. I actually found out about this at school, so I didn't have to wait to long for the second book because they were both out. Now I have to wait another year for it? I don't think I will survive, after I read so many different theories on here. Cinder and Scarlet were just so amazing!

...Does anyone else feel like 2014 is WAY too far away?
Man, Marissa Meyer is not letting up. There is not a peep about this book anywhere! Best kept secret, Ms. Meyer; but if it's all the same to you, we crazed fans will keep stalking the web for whispers anyway ;)
