Waiting on Wednesday: Wires and Nerve by Marissa Meyer
Wires and Nerve by Marissa Meyer. Illustrated by Douglas Holgate. 240 p. Feiwel and Friends, January 31, 2017. 9781250078261.
Goodreads synopsis: In her first graphic novel, bestselling author Marissa Meyer extends the world of the Lunar Chronicles with a brand-new, action-packed story about Iko, the android with a heart of (mechanized) gold. When rogue packs of wolf-hybrid soldiers threaten the tenuous peace alliance between Earth and Luna, Iko takes it upon herself to hunt down the soldiers' leader. She is soon working with a handsome royal guard who forces her to question everything she knows about love, loyalty, and her own humanity. With appearances by Cinder and the rest of the Rampion crew, this is a must-have for fans of the bestselling series.
My students and I are great fans of The Lunar Chronicles. Personally, I adore Iko and am so happy for this spin-off. A 240 page graphic novel? Wow! I am sure fans won't bat an eye; but that sure seems long for a gn.
