What ’s wonderful about Solstoria is how rapidly Maria plunge us into her universe and the how high the stakes are for Sam , even if she does n’t always know it . The magic of her world is readily understandable and full of risk , but Maria does n’t find the need to excuse every small matter in good order away . The world is an interesting mixture , where trains and ( sometimes maturate ) telephone lines coexist with entrance sticker and moon priestess with echt healing power . It ’s a place where magic can poison the land and ghostwriter stick in the physical plane can enact desperate deed of fury .
To some extent , Solstoria is like the best sort of bedtime story : something that children can delight while also giving them some nice scares . But the older folks among us can easy slip into the mystery and the public — and value Maria ’s bright and expressive fine art .
