Ryan, a year 11 student, was introduced to the series to which Spy Glass belongs when he was looking for new books and knew that he would enjoy it since he previously had read similar books. As an avid reader he is always on the lookout for new material to read. Maria V. Snyder, the author, tells a story of a girl who has lost her powers and observes them being used by others and embarks on a mission to get back what she previously had. Each character has his or her own personality, which Ryan really enjoyed. In particular he related to Lief, who enjoys eating anything and everything, something Ryan also feels passionate about. Lief also has a skill for interpreting people’s emotions, which comes in handy in some situations. The book can appeal to people with varied preferences as, according to Ryan, it has aspects of fantasy and adventure which are complemented by the problems and triumphs in the relationships of characters in the book. Maria V. Snyder does a good job of conveying the emotions of the characters, especially in the scenes which revolve around characters’ feelings. Ryan recommends it to everyone who enjoys fantasy novels, with a softer undertone and some emotion involved. He warns that if you don’t have a good imagination, you may struggle to read the book.
