Publisher's summary

Nyssa Glass is a reformed cat burglar turned electrician's apprentice, settled into a life repairing videophones and radio-sets. However, when her past comes calling, she finds herself forced into one last job. No one has entered Professor Dalhart's secluded mansion in almost a decade, at least not and returned to tell the tale. If Nyssa wants to ensure her freedom, she'll brave the booby trapped halls and mechanized maids.

Nyssa has skills, but this house has more than its share of secrets. As she steps into the cobwebbed halls lined with dusty mirrors, she has to wonder. Is the House of Mirrors really abandoned?

Steampunk! Mystery! Surprises! Excitement!

Nyssa Glass and the house of mirrors is the first book in an exciting steampunk series.

Nyssa Glass is an teenage genius who just wants to leave her life of crime behind her. I love her attitude, that even on the worst day of her life she doesn't give up, she just keeps looking for a solution.

The whole plot is well constructed, it keeps moving and never lags. You will be shocked at the twists it takes.

Mary Ann Weathers is one of my favorite narrators her range of voices is amazing, making each character distinct and different.

Engaging Heroine

Nyssa Glass is who we all wish we could be: bold, daring, smart and quirky. This first book in the series is a must-read to fully understand the relationship that is soon to be for Nyssa and the man she rescues.

Fun quick read

The story is entertaining and steampunk without being alienating to those unfamiliar with the genre. The narration is OK, the differentiations aren’t terribly great and I didn’t realize one of the characters was male until later on due to the similarity invoices. This is YA appropriate (PG if a movie if all details are accounted for) and a fun little mystery to boot. If you’re on the fence, go for it. —I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
