Spy Glass by Maria V. Snyder
3.0
The pace was fast - once he action started, there wasn't much room to breath before something was revealed or Opal was off somewhere, doing something else. After a while, I just gave up on trying to keep track of every new discovery made about Opal's immunity and her relationship with glass. I personally don't find Opal's personality interesting. What make the series work was the fast pace, the world and seeing how magic affects society, and the other characters.
I wasn't surprised by Opal's choice at the end - I'd suspected since the first book, when Opal immediately notices the brightness of his eyes, during an attack. I do wish the ending was longer. Much of this series talked about the effects of Opal's glass magic on society and commerce. I completely expected to see everyone, including Yelena and the Councilor dealing with the aftermath of the events in this book. (And there are a lot of them. Seems like Sitia has been dealing with quite a few massive changes lately!) Why the ending became focused on Opal's mother, I don't understand.
I'm rather intrigued by Teegan and Reema though. I hope the next series is about the two of them.
