Publishers like Macmillan’s Feiwel & Friends and Penguin’s Razorbill are great for sci-fi similar to 'Cinder.' Feiwel & Friends released 'Soundless' by Richelle Mead, a standalone with a unique sci-fi/fantasy blend. Razorbill has titles like 'warcross' by Marie Lu, which shares 'Cinder’s' cyberpunk elements. For indie vibes, look at Strange Chemistry—before they closed, they published gems like 'Poltergeeks' by Sean Cummings. Nowadays, small presses like Flux Books carry that torch with inventive YA sci-fi.

I’ve been obsessed with sci-fi books like 'cinder' for years, and I always keep an eye on certain publishers for new releases. Tor Teen is a go-to for YA sci-fi with strong world-building—they’ve put out amazing works like 'illuminae' by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman, which has that same mix of high stakes and futuristic flair. Another favorite of mine is Disney Hyperion, which publishes a lot of YA sci-fi with crossover appeal. Their lineup includes 'Defy the Stars' by Claudia Gray, a space adventure with a dash of romance, much like 'Cinder.'

For those who enjoy the fairytale retelling aspect of 'Cinder,' Entangled Teen is worth exploring. They specialize in sci-fi and fantasy blends, often with a romantic twist. And if you’re into self-published or smaller press finds, Kindle Direct Publishing has hidden treasures—authors like Lindsay Buroker, who writes witty, action-packed sci-fi with a similar vibe.

If you love 'cinder' and want more sci-fi with that perfect mix of futuristic settings and fairytale inspiration, you’ll adore what publishers like Scholastic Press have to offer. They’ve released titles like 'heartless' by Marissa Meyer herself, which, while not sci-fi, shows their knack for fantastical storytelling. For more tech-driven narratives, check out Gollancz—they publish a lot of bold, imaginative sci-fi, including 'the space between worlds' by Micaiah Johnson, which has that same gritty, inventive world-building.

I also highly recommend Orbit Books for sci-fi fans. They put out a mix of adult and YA titles, like 'Gideon the Ninth' by Tamsyn Muir, which blends sci-fi with dark fantasy in a way that’s just as addictive as 'Cinder.' And don’t forget about Harper Voyager—their catalog is packed with sci-fi that balances action and emotional depth, perfect for readers who crave layered stories.

I can confidently point you toward some fantastic publishers specializing in this genre. Penguin Random House's sci-fi imprint, DAW Books, is a powerhouse for titles like Marissa Meyer's Lunar Chronicles series. They consistently publish fresh, inventive sci-fi with strong female leads and futuristic twists. Another great publisher is Tor Books, known for their diverse range of speculative fiction—everything from cyberpunk to space opera. Their catalog includes gems like 'The Calculating Stars' by Mary Robinette Kowal, which shares 'Cinder’s' blend of sci-fi and reimagined history.

If you’re looking for indie publishers with a keen eye for unique voices, check out Angry Robot Books. They specialize in boundary-pushing sci-fi and fantasy, often with a gritty, futuristic edge. For YA sci-fi specifically, Macmillan’s imprint Feiwel & Friends has published tons of fast-paced, tech-driven stories similar to 'Cinder.' And don’t overlook HarperCollins’ HarperTeen, which consistently delivers gripping sci-fi with romantic subplots, perfect for fans of Meyer’s work.

How Many Books Are In The Series Like Cinder?

4 Answers2025-08-09 10:47:46
As a longtime fan of Marissa Meyer's 'The Lunar Chronicles,' I can confidently say the series consists of four main books: 'Cinder,' 'Scarlet,' 'Cress,' and 'Winter.' Each book reimagines a classic fairy tale with a sci-fi twist, focusing on a different heroine—Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Snow White, respectively. The world-building is intricate, blending futuristic technology with fairy-tale elements seamlessly. There are also two companion books: 'Fairest,' a prequel centered on Queen Levana, and 'Stars Above,' a collection of short stories that delve deeper into the characters' backstories. While the core series wraps up beautifully in 'Winter,' 'Stars Above' offers delightful extras for fans who crave more. If you enjoy strong heroines, witty dialogue, and creative retellings, this series is a must-read.

Is There A Manga Adaptation Of Books Like Cinder?

4 Answers2025-08-09 18:27:08
As someone who devours both manga and sci-fi novels, I can confidently say that while there isn't a direct manga adaptation of 'Cinder' by Marissa Meyer, there are plenty of manga with similar themes that fans of the book would adore. 'Cinder' blends fairy tale retellings with cyberpunk elements, and manga like 'Snow White with the Red Hair' captures that fairy tale vibe with a twist, though it leans more towards fantasy than sci-fi. For cyberpunk romance, 'Ghost in the Shell' offers a gritty, futuristic world, but it lacks the fairy tale aspect. If you're looking for something closer to 'Cinder's' mix of romance and sci-fi, 'Steins;Gate' might interest you with its time travel and emotional depth. Another great option is 'The Rose of Versailles,' which, while historical, has the strong female lead and dramatic romance that 'Cinder' fans would appreciate. Manga adaptations of Western novels are rare, but the themes you love in 'Cinder' are alive and well in many Japanese titles.

Are There Any Movies Based On Books Like Cinder?

4 Answers2025-08-09 12:24:32
As someone who devours both books and movies, I get super excited when a great novel gets adapted into a film. 'Cinder' by Marissa Meyer is one of my favorite sci-fi fairy tale retellings, and if you loved it, you might enjoy 'The Host' based on Stephenie Meyer's novel. It has that same mix of romance and dystopian sci-fi vibes. Then there's 'Stardust,' adapted from Neil Gaiman's book, which is a whimsical fantasy adventure with a charming love story at its core. For something darker, 'The Hunger Games' series, based on Suzanne Collins' books, offers a gripping dystopian world with strong romantic subplots. 'Beautiful Creatures,' adapted from Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl's novel, is another underrated gem blending magic and romance. If you're into action-packed fantasy with romance, 'Mortal Instruments: City of Bones' might be up your alley, though the book is way better. Each of these films captures the essence of their source material while offering something unique for fans of 'Cinder.'

Can I Find Books Like Cinder At My Local Library?

4 Answers2025-08-09 23:55:14
As someone who frequents libraries and adores sci-fi retellings like 'Cinder', I can confidently say that most local libraries carry a solid selection of YA sci-fi and fantasy. Marissa Meyer's Lunar Chronicles series is popular, so chances are high you'll find 'Cinder' or similar titles like 'Scarlet' or 'Cress'. Libraries often categorize these under 'Young Adult Science Fiction' or 'Fairy Tale Retellings'. If 'Cinder' isn’t available, ask about interlibrary loans—many libraries partner to share books. Alternatively, look for books like 'The Iron King' by Julie Kagawa, which blends sci-fi with folklore, or 'These Broken Stars' by Amie Kaufman, a space-set romance with a strong heroine. Libraries also often have digital lending options like Libby or Hoopla, where you might find eBook or audiobook versions. Don’t forget to check the library’s online catalog or app—it’s a quick way to search without leaving home. Librarians are usually thrilled to help; they might even recommend hidden gems like 'Skyward' by Brandon Sanderson or 'Illuminae' by Jay Kristoff, which have similar futuristic vibes.

As a sci-fi enthusiast who devours YA books with cyborg themes, I can't recommend 'The Lunar Chronicles' series enough. 'Cinder' by Marissa Meyer is just the beginning—'Scarlet', 'Cress', and 'Winter' expand the universe with even more cyborg awesomeness. If you loved 'Cinder', you'll adore 'Defy the Stars' by Claudia Gray, which features a rogue AI and a human protagonist in a gripping interstellar adventure. Another gem is 'Rebel Seoul' by Axie Oh, blending cyberpunk elements with YA drama in a futuristic Seoul. For a darker twist, 'The Diabolic' by S.J. Kincaid explores a cyborg-like protagonist bred for protection, with a plot full of political intrigue. These books all share that perfect mix of high-tech action and heartfelt storytelling, making them must-reads for fans of 'Cinder'.

Where Can I Read Books Like Cinder For Free Online?

As someone who spends way too much time hunting for free reads, I totally get the struggle. 'Cinder' by Marissa Meyer is such a fantastic blend of sci-fi and fairy tale retelling, and finding similar books for free can be tricky but not impossible. Websites like Project Gutenberg and Open Library offer a ton of classic and public domain books that might scratch that futuristic fairy tale itch. For more modern titles, check out Scribd’s free trial or Kindle Unlimited’s free month—they often have YA sci-fi and fantasy gems. Also, don’t overlook fanfiction platforms like Archive of Our Own (AO3); some original works there are inspired by 'Cinder' and are free to read. Just remember to support authors when you can—free books are great, but buying or borrowing from libraries helps keep the stories coming!

What Are The Best Animes Similar To Books Like Cinder?

4 Answers2025-08-09 21:21:08
As someone who devours both sci-fi novels and anime, I love finding series that capture the same blend of futuristic intrigue and emotional depth as 'Cinder.' A standout is 'Psycho-Pass,' which mirrors the dystopian cyberpunk vibe with its gripping exploration of justice and human nature. The world-building is meticulous, much like Marissa Meyer’s Lunar Chronicles. For a lighter but equally engaging watch, 'Snow White with the Red Hair' offers a charming twist on fairy tales, blending romance and adventure in a way that feels fresh. If you’re into strong heroines and political intrigue, 'The Twelve Kingdoms' is a masterpiece with its rich lore and character growth. And for a more action-packed take, 'Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex' delivers a cybernetic world teeming with philosophical questions and high-stakes missions. Each of these anime captures the essence of what makes 'Cinder' so compelling—innovative settings, complex characters, and stories that linger long after the credits roll.

When Will The Next Book Like Cinder Be Released?

4 Answers2025-08-09 20:02:47
As someone who devoured 'Cinder' and the entire 'Lunar Chronicles' series, I’ve been eagerly tracking any news about similar releases. Marissa Meyer hasn’t announced another book directly tied to 'Cinder,' but her recent works like 'Instant Karma' and 'Gilded' show she’s still crafting amazing stories. If you’re looking for something with the same sci-fi fairy tale vibe, 'Heartless' by Meyer is a fantastic standalone prequel to 'Alice in Wonderland.' For fans craving more cyborg Cinderella retellings, 'Crier’s War' by Nina Varela offers a lush, robotic twist on romance and rebellion. Alternatively, 'These Broken Stars' by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner blends sci-fi and romance beautifully. While we wait for Meyer’s next big project, diving into these might scratch the itch. Follow publishers like Feiwel & Friends or authors on social media for the latest updates—it’s how I stay in the loop!
