Shatterglass
Kethlun Warder was a gifted glassmaker until his world was shattered in a freak accident. Now his remaining glass-magic is mixed with lightning, and Tris must teach him to control it (if she can teach him to control his temper first). But there's more at stake than Keth's education.
With his strange magic, he creates glass balls which reflect the immediate past and expose the work of a murderer. If he can harness his power properly, he'll be able to see the crimes as they take place.
Keth and Tris race against time and the local authorities to identify a killer who's living in plain sight.

Tamora Pierce
Tamora Pierce didn’t just open a door to fantasy for young readers—she forged a path, torch in hand, into realms where girls wield swords, speak with gods, and refuse to be silenced. Long before strong female protagonists became a trend, Pierce was crafting heroines who were bold, complex, and unapologetically themselves. Her stories didn’t just break molds; they reimagined what fantasy could be for generations of readers hungry for more than damsels and dragons.
Born in South Connellsville, Pennsylvania, and raised between the rolling hills of rural America and the buzz of city life, Pierce’s childhood was steeped in books and imagination. Her early fascination with mythology and medieval lore took root in her storytelling, where rich world-building and elemental magic breathe life into each saga. It was while working at a library and later studying at the University of Pennsylvania that she began shaping what would become the iconic Song of the Lioness quartet—a series that introduced the world to Alanna of Trebond, a girl who disguises herself as a boy to train as a knight.
