I've read a number of Ms. Koval's Drylands stories in SF magazines and found them plodding and overly long for their plots. So why did I buy *all* the volumes in the Glamour series to date and read them without any break except for short stories in SF magazines and nonfiction that I needed to read? Probably because I'm always hoping for a genuinely good Austen follow-on and this wasn't the Drylands series. And I’m sure my dislike of Glamour in Glass is due to the cumulative effect of all the books. But it took me many weeks to read this latest, a chapter at a time, looking for any excuse to do anything else by the end of the chapter.It's not just that the author tells but doesn't show. She very carefully *explains* and *repeats* just in case the reader didn't get her points the first few dozen times. The book opens with the author making sure the reader knows that in the previous volume, protagonist Jane, Lady Vincent had a miscarriage and now isn’t sure if she can have children or even wants them, because if she had them she might not be able to continue her work. I appreciate the effort to recap so the reader doesn’t have to buy all the books. But then, the author conscientiously works in these points every single chance she gets, throughout the book. Then, from previous books we know that Jane’s husband tends to overdo it when working glamour/magic, to the point of fainting and even on occasion to the brink of death. His frailties, and Jane’s wifely admonishments not to overdo it, are constantly present. When Vincent collapses from exertion in yet *another* scene and Jane flutters round him *again*, and they have that wise little talk about marital control/cooperation yet *again*, I was going, no, please no, no, no, and put the book down yet again. Then the glamour is a kind of ethereal weaving technique with the author constantly giving the names of the various knots, which are in a glossary, but who cares? There’s an awful lot of narrative consisting of Jane ties this knot, and then she ties another knot, and then her husband ties a knot, and on occasion other people tie knots, and then they tie them off. And on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on. It’s exactly like reading a technical manual, except there’s no chance of learning anything useful.Meanwhile, aside from all the potentially thrilling action being rendered insufferably tedious in this manner, the characters are cardboard. Readers will probably know the two protagonists' handful of characteristics from previous novels, and these people don’t develop any further. There’s a stock villain with a stock financial motivation. The henchpeople barely register as people. There’s Lord Byron, and the author assumes everyone knows what he’s like already. There are a number of characters who extensively aid the protagonists, but their motives are unclear and their personalities nonexistent. It's impossible to emotionally engage with these books.Avoid this book. Avoid this series. If you’ve been hoping it will improve, it doesn’t. Oh, and Jane's fertility issues look like they're intentionally being left open for resolution in yet another book. My speculation is that because the Vincents constantly discover ground-breaking techniques, they will discover how a female glamourist can be a wife and mother. Giving the author the opportunity to beat the reader around the head with yet more social education about how this is a good thing. Because that's another problem--the author seems to think marital happiness, women working, and social diversity are things no one else has ever heard of before, so readers all need to be carefully educated, and educated, and educated . . .
By Chris Gerrib, author of Pirates of MarsMary Robinette Kowal has a problem. The first line of her new novel Glamour In Glass somehow got cut out of the first edition. (For the record, the line is: There are few things in this world that can simultaneously delight and dismay in the same manner as a formal dinner party.) Despite that unfortunate glitch, I found Glamour In Glass simply spectacular.The story is a loose sequel to her first novel, Shades of Milk and Honey, and is set in Regency England. This is, however, Regency England with a twist - there is a form of magic called "glamour" which allows people to create wonderful illusions. Kowal wanted a magic system that would be primarily reserved to women, so she had to invent something with limited practical use. So, her "glamours" are persistent but not practical. For example, one could create an illusion of a candle, but the candle would not be able to illuminate something.At any rate, Mary's heroine, Jane Vincent, having been newly married to the noted "glamorist" David Vincent, starts the novel by being invited to a dinner party thrown by the Prince Regent. At this, she discovers that her husband plans to take her on a honeymoon to the Continent, now opened for travel due to Napoleon's defeat. So they end up staying in Binche, Belgium, a little town on the road to a place called Waterloo. In the spring and summer of 1815, as the reinstated Napoleon is marching his army north.This setup creates great suspense, while providing a perfect excuse for Ms. Kowal to leave her characters in the dark. While we await Napoleon's arrival, the newlywed glamorists work on their skills, including an attempt by Jane to trap illusions in glass. This would have the effect of allowing mass-production of glamour and use by unskilled people. In addition, if Mr. Vincent's Sphere Obscurcie, a form of invisibility, can be locked in glass, then glamour has a clear military use (pun intended).The novel is written in the style of Jane Austen, so we get such lines as, "They were occupied for some minutes, then, with duties marital. To disturb their privacy would be indecorous." Despite that, there's plenty of action, especially in the last third of the book. In short, Mary Robinette Kowal has produced another wonderful book.
