The wonderful Trisha Telep, one of the owner's of Murder One online bookstore and editor of several Mammoth anthologies, emailed me today with news on the next Murder One Film Night in London - with Maria V. Snyder! Here are the details:
Ring in the New Year with Murder One Film Club and the first great fantasy-romance film night of 2010!
Murder One presents an evening with Maria V. Snyder on Monday, January 18th. The bestselling author of the fabulous Study series will be signing the UK edition of her latest book Sea Glass
(the second installment in her Glass series)*, followed by a Q&A and screening of her film pick Hero
(starring Jet Li)**.

Hope to see you there!

Murder One
*Sea Glass
Student glass magician Opal Cowan's newfound ability to steal a magician's powers makes her too powerful. Ordered to house arrest by the Council, Opal dares defy them, traveling to the Moon Clan's lands in search of Ulrick, the man she thinks she loves. Thinks because she is sure another man now her prisoner has switched souls with Ulrick.
In hostile territory, without proof or allies, Opal isn't sure whom to trust. She can't forget Kade, the handsome Stormdancer who doesn't want to let her get close. And now everyone is after Opal's special powers for their own deadly gain....
**Hero
A group of assassins: Flying Snow, Broken Sword, and Long Sky, have sworn to kill the King of Qin. Nameless (Jet Li) comes to the royal capital to claim the reward offered for their defeat.
I had a few questions I wanted clarified, so here are some further details for you.
As it says above, the movie is free with the purchase of Sea Glass or another title with the same cost,
but to get your place you have to
email Trisha so she has a book for you to pick up on the night and to save you a seat at the cinema - there are only 45 seats, so get emailing! Trisha will only have copies of Sea Glass and some of her Mammoth anthologies at the event. Sea Glass costs £6.99.
So here are the details again:

Touch of Power is the first book in your third YA high fantasy series. Urban fantasy/paranormal romance and dystopia are very popular YA genres at the moment, so why high fantasy?
