Amazon/Barnes & Nobles/ Kobo/Goodreads As promised to fans of Maria V. Snyder’s books (who also happen to be devoted readers of this blog), here is my review of the highly anticipated start of a new series in the worlds of both Ixia and its neighboring country of magic Sitia.

Countdown to “Shadow Study:”Maria V. Snyder Fan Questions and Answers!
Click the above cover image, for the forthcoming new novel in the new Study Sequel Series- Soulfinder Trilogy- mysteriously titled Shadow Study!! Since I re-read Sea Glass a number of months ago, I cannot recall any significant details of the plot, so I will instead be moving forward with a thorough examination of Spy Glass instead next Wednesday. In…
Maria V. Snyder Wednesdays: Review of “Storm Glass”
Amazon/Barnes & Nobles/ Books-A-Million/Goodreads After two weeks without any Maria V. Snyder-centric posts on this blog, the much-anticipated retrospective reviews of her books returns in fine form and flourish with the first entry of the Glass Trilogy, with the intrepid, often ruthlessly defiant Opal. Antithetically, I would say that Opal is more daring and…
Maria V. Snyder Female Magic Wielder Month- Retrospective Review of Maria V. Snyder’s “Fire Study”
Amazon/ Barnes & Nobles/ Books-A-Million/Goodreads About five years ago, I vaguely remember greatly enjoying myself, after divesting my mind completely of the very polarized reviews of the novel that I read both on Amazon and Good-reads. That is why it is important that you always read reviews, even my own reviews, with a very discerning…

Maria V. Snyder Author Highlight Wednesdays: Poison Study Retrospective
Amazon/Barnes and Nobles/ Books-A-Million/ Goodreads/Author Website From my older version, more outdated looking Blogspot blog, this is the 2009 version of my Poison Study review, dredged up for comparison’s sake! When finding the exact link for my previous, nearly five-year old review of Maria V. Snyder’s Poison Study, I forbade myself from reading it over, as I wanted the…
Review of Maria V. Snyder’s “Taste of Darkness:” Author Highlight Wednesdays
Amazon/ Barnes and Nobles/ Books-A-Million/Goodreads Maria V. Snyder’s ending books can be a very divisive thing. For instance, the concluding volume of the Glass series Spy Glass, revolving around the glass magician Opal, was a very contentious ending for the series. In my own opinion, I thought that Spy Glass was one of Maria V. Snyder’s strongest books of…
Review of Maria V. Snyder’s Scent of Magic: Author Highlight Wednesdays
Amazon/Barnes and Nobles/Goodreads Much like the first novel Touch of Power,Scent of Magic is yet another deceptively simple novel, which really is a fairly complex, multifarious novel under the surface. Maria V. Snyder meticulously writes with measured prose that seems to be written both clearly and effectively. For those that have read the first novel, you are…
