5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books I've read!!, April 10, 2001

By	Coley (Mobile, AL USA) - See all my reviews

Soulstring was an excellent book. I was lucky enough to find it used, and now I wouldn't give it away. Don't let the first person voice scare you. It helps you get closer to the character. As for the story, it's totally original. The daughter of an evil nobleman and sorcerer, Magda, has inherited her father's power, but has no idea how to use it. One day, Severin, a farmer of Thall, comes to win her hand, and this changes her life. On the run from her father, alone with her new husband who's been turned into a stag, she has to survive. This book was so exciting and touching. It made me want to find my perfect love.

4.0 out of 5 stars First Novel, January 16, 2007

By	Nony Mouse - See all my reviews

Soulstring is Midori Snyder's first novel and a great introduction to her work. It features a young heroine, Magda, living in a fantastical world and struggling to wrest control her life from an uncaring family, and her magic from a villainous father. In the process she stumbles across a courageous man, who helps her unlock the key to her freedom. If you like this book, you'll love her triology, especially the first book: New Moon.

Here's an excerpt from a review by Suite 101:
Her first book was an adult fairy tale Fantasy called Soulstring. It is a story of an evil mage with a beautiful daughter. Suitors must pass tests to win her or are killed if they fail. Magda, the daughter, wants to stop her father. She has great power, but must learn how to use it. This is a book with a tightly woven plot that entertains readers with its many wonders. Ms. Snyder had a good start with this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Happy Hauntings, November 19, 2001

By A Customer

The first time i read this book i could not get myself to put it down. Though i tried many times i just couldn't. This was a very creative and in many ways a very imaginative book. It was enjoyed by many people of several different age groups. Though i am a firm believer in God i see no harm in a little fun as long as people know that it is all make believe.
