Spy Glass
Spy Glass

Magician's quest after a catastrophic power loss.

If you loved journeying through fantastical realms and rooting for underdogs getting a second chance, "Spy Glass" should be on your reading list. Maria V. Snyder will draw you into her vividly crafted world where the stakes are personal and the magic is tantalizingly out of reach. Opal's resilience will inspire you, especially as she navigates a life dramatically changed by the loss — and potential recovery — of her powers.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

A new legacy is rising... Opal Cowan had been willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to save her friends and rid the world of blood magic. Though she survives, she is forever changed... Opal has lost her powers. More than that, she is now immune to magic. She is an outsider looking in, spying through the glass on those with the powers she once had, powers that make a difference to the world and were her whole world. Until spying through the glass becomes Opal's new power. Suddenly, the beautiful sculptures she makes begin to flash in the presence of magic. And then she discovers that someone has stolen some of her blood and that finding it might let her regain her powers. Or learn if she's lost them forever...
