[Series Overview] Glass - Maria V. Snyder

Disclaimer, one you'd see on multiple posts As I struggled to decide which book series to cover overviews for, it dawned to me that I'd never get started at this rate. It became clear to me that, it's rather unlikely for me to use this blog as my "main" reviewing spot since I have Goodreads for that, and chances of someone miraculously stumbling across this blog out of the countless ones out there, is just rather slim, therefore, I'd put up links to my GR reviews (in English,) and this post would be in Chinese for people who are curious about the series but either aren't comfortable with or just don't prefer reading in English. Please also note that, sometimes I don't have time to write actual reviews, HOWEVER, I do always put down thoughts when I document my reading status updates, so for GR desktop users, remember to scroll down if it appears to contain little, it'd be under the quotes I liked from that book (when applicable lol;) for mobile app users, remember to switch to "Reading Activity," which would not be the default as "Review" is.

第三集客觀中文簡介^{[大苹果事业有限公司]}、出版社們可以趕快看一看去買（喂喂）。

同世界觀：Study（及The Study Chronicles: Valek's Adventures）、Soulfinders

這個我可是搶在好好寫GR reviews前就趕快整理貼出來喔！我覺得有買Study版權卻略過Glass的國家，真的有虧啦！沒看這部直接看最後的三部曲Soulfinders，一定會一堆問號覺得多的這堆角色是誰xD

嚴格來說，沒先po最初的三部曲可能有些奇怪，但我想說還是先弄相對比較少人看的續作，弄完再說吧xD（已補但都欠心得xD） 可能會等一陣子，所以直接先放上Disclaimer裡不斷提及的Amethyst於2012年就po好的文 → [Study @ 紫憶的異想世界] 雖然這系列我在GR上也有耳聞，但其實真的是因為一連串事件才讓我最後真的看了，Amethyst願意去讀中文的是契機之一xD

The actual review is, as usual, WIP, but like I said above, getting the post out there first.

Disclaimer, one you'd see on multiple posts The following section, basically a gallery of editions around the world with different book cover art, is largely inspired by treatments of fellow blogger Amethyst, who unfortunately hasn't done those types of blog posts for a while. Please DO NOT mistaken the following to be all existing editions; I'm only including completed sets with matching designs. All clickable images are linked to respective editions on GR; people, shelving correct editions ain't that hard. Highly recommend accurate shelving. =D

以下涵蓋7款，記得看全文以觀賞喔 >:3


American English | 美式英文


Australian English | 澳式英文
有稍稍掙扎澳版和英版順序哪個，最後先放澳州初版是因為至少用過兩次、義大利原版也是用這款做一些調動。這款和上方美國初版我覺得都有涵蓋書中具有意義的玻璃器皿，算有用心；相較下方英國初版，模特兒可愛是一回事啦（澳版的也不差就是了），只有第一集稍稍有點關聯感，其他的就沒有特別和這系列有呼應了？話雖然這麼說，這版模特兒眼神沒精神不太okay xD

British English | 英式英文


Australian English | 澳式英文 （2014）
連結目前是連至英版（因為率先推出），但有空應該會改成澳版（是的，不同ISBN），主要是因為Soulfinders三部曲澳洲直接只出和這版搭的。個人認為，這個新設計雖然明顯看得出來這同一系列，但可以說完全沒有個別特色= = 原先連至2013英版^{[Goodreads頁面1][2][3]}供參。

American English | 美式英文 （2017電子書）
這版封面更新疑似只限於電子書，連結連至ePub版，Kindle使用者請自行搜尋www 更新大概是為了和另外兩部的新封面稍微更搭一點，但我覺得雖然臉看到的不多，還是英澳的模特兒比較正（被揍），所以對我來說這個更新沒有加分，而且手裡拿的器皿也沒有特色，我們家Opal很多功能的（誤導人的句子xDDD）

American English | 美式英文 （2021電子書）
唉，這一波的更新（這部是最晚的），網友多少都有看到我在Facebook上嫌棄了一番；就整個體驗到出版社用圖庫而且用的不是很用心（另外兩系列比較明顯）。上方提過前一版器皿沒特色，這次更新好了些，但還是看起來相對業餘啊囧 花錢申請ISBN想藉機靠封面更新打人氣，不如好好費心思出個比較持久又有價值的「新」封面吧！

italiano | Italian | 義大利文 （2016電子書）
如前述，義大利本來是用澳洲初版做了些更動。這個新款好像只有電子版，連結連至Kindle版，有ePub但GR上沒頁面就不弄了w 仔細看會發現其實主要物件就是原來的那三個器皿啦哈哈 可能會感覺有點廉價，但對於不想看到有人臉的封面，這版很符合（笑死）
