Thank You, Maria V. Snyder!

I would like to say a big thank you to Maria V Snyder for sending me a signed copy of her novel Poison Study. It is incredibly generous of her to send me a beautifully signed copy for recommending her novel. I was only too happy to recommend her books to everyone I know! Maria V Snyder is a wonderful writer and I find her books to be just brilliant! I would like to encourage anyone who is a fan of fantasy and especially a fan of strong, female characters, to read the Study Series. The Study Series is comprised of three novels and each are equally fantastic. I can personally testify that this series will keep you not only entertained, but thinking about it long after you've read the last page.


Poison Study centers on a strong willed, female character named Yelena who is imprisoned for murder. BY some impossible miracle, Yelena is given a choice and a second chance. But is becoming the food taster for Ixia's ruler a new start or a prolonged execution sentence? Yelena's journey from prisoner, to poison taster, to hero is full of emotion, action and of course romance. Maria V Snyder is a master world builder but the characters she has created bring the world to life; even the minor characters sparkle and add vibrancy to the realm within the Study Series. Maria V Snyder has managed to write a great fantasy series that is sure to captivate fantasy readers and fiction readers alike because of her ability to make a magical world feel so realistic. If you would like to purchase Poison Study, or the Study Series in its entirety , (Which I strongly suggest you do!) click on the picture above.

As a side note- Cassandra Clare is holding a reading and signing in the Bryant Park Reading Room Saturday, August 22. According to her website (www.cassandraclare.com), she will be making very special announcements. I am sure that one of the announcements will be about her new series The Infernal Devices, especially the release date. I am also predicting that Cassandra Clare is planning on announcing a movie deal for The Mortal Instruments series. This is just my opinion, but who doesn't want to see a live action Jace? *Sigh*
