On Magic Glass

I really like Maria V. Snyder's imagination...
She can create a world and make you believe you are there, that you are friends with the characters and know the families and countryside...
The Glass Series continues where the Poison series leaves off 
with some of the same characters
Opal Cowan, the sister of the glass blower in the Poison series, is the main character in this series. 
She is also a glass-blower who has magical abilities. 
In the first book she is called to aid the Stormdancers, a magical people who calm storms, when their glass orbs are sabotaged. 


In the second, she has become a pawn of the governments, with her special talents being held hostage.  She has to choose her path and find truth.
In the last book, Spy Glass, Opal is without her magic, and has to reinvent herself and her place in society.  

Very compelling characters. 
Fun reads!
Some sexy stuff and violence so probably for 9th grade up.
