Oh man...I cried actual tears when Iko gave Peony her ribbon back. If anyone needs to test whether or not I'm a cyborg just show me that page again.

Loved seeing what happened to the cast of characters after the Lunar Chronicles series ended. Volume 2 (and Volume 1 also) of Wires and Nerve, in graphic novel format, was perfect for keeping the story going and helping to have favorites materialize and come to life.

This was a well done wrap-up to the Wires and Nerve series. It was fun to see all my favorite characters again. The story was a bit slow but decent. This wraps up the storyline started in the first volume about the Rogue werewolves.
The illustration style isn't my favorite; it's all in blue tones
Overall this was a fun read that I enjoyed. It wraps up the story nicely and was good great addition to the overall Lunar Chronicles world. Fans of the Lunar Chronicles should definitely check our Nerves and Wires. I am still not a huge fan of the illustration style but it was easy to follow.

This Wires and Nerve sequel is just as much fun as the first. All the beloved Lunar Chronicles characters make appearances, and Iko, of course, continues to be a true delight.

This could have been shorter. As it was, some parts were tedious. Did we need so many fruitless encounters with Lysander? How many times did we need to hear him insist that there was a cure for the mutations and someone else respond that he was wrong?
I did enjoy getting some backstory for Iko,

This is the second installment of the Wires and Nerve graphic novel series, a continuation of the Lunar Chronicles.
The focus is on Iko, the almost-human android. With the main army defeated, the remnant of the Lunar wolfmen are wreaking havoc and even have lured Wolf, Scarlet's beloved and member
Iko is also exploring the differences between android and human, which seem less and less as the series continues and Iko evolves.
Fun summer reading. I enjoyed it more than the first in the series.

It is with a heavy heart that we come to the conclusion of the Lunar Chronicles series. The big bad evil Queen has been defeated and Linh Cinder has taken up the throne that is rightfully hers. The biggest obstacle in her current reign is the rogue wolf-hybrid operatives still lurking around Earth
Iko has been chasing down the main alpha who has gathered an army of these hybrids but he keeps escaping her grasp every time. Cinder has sent her main guard Kinney to help her best friend but even as a team they haven't had much luck. Then things get worse when it seems that one of their own has joined the rogue lunar operatives.
I can't say I enjoyed this conclusion very much. It was a very cutesy story and not many twists were involved. I think Wires and Nerves #1 was a lot more adventurous and full of action but this one felt like it was a romance with little side action.

teen sci-fi/fantasy romance/adventure in graphic format; companion story to the Lunar Chronicles.
You don't have to be super familiar with the Lunar series, but it helps. I don't know if the graphic is compelling enough to spark interest in the Lunar books on its own, but it had great illustrations

Nice second installment, nice to to revisit these characters. I could wish that they did not all have to be so darn willowy, but it is an idealistic medium, and so we get what we get. I do appreciate that an android character has strengths and challenges that humans do not, and Meyer does a
