I have spent the last four hours reading this book, and yet I don't know I could tell you what REALLY happened. I LOVED Inside Out, though interestingly I can't really remember much of what happened in it.īut Outside In failed me. I cannot count how many times I have reread the Study series, and how many people I have told to read them. I really hate not being able to give it more stars.I LOVED the Study series.

Readers are welcome to check out her website for book excerpts, free short stories, maps, blog, and her schedule at. Where else can you take fencing lessons, learn how to ride a horse, study marital arts, learn how to pick a lock, take glass blowing classes and attend Astronomy Camp and call it research? Maria will be the first one to tell you it's not working as a meteorologist. When she's not writing she's either playing volleyball, traveling, or taking pictures. Note: She mentions her cat before her family. Maria also has a husband and two children who are an inspiration for her writing when they aren't being a distraction. She loves dogs, but is allergic, instead she has a big black tom cat named…Kitty (apparently naming cats isn’t in her skill set either). She’s been on the New York Times bestseller list, won a dozen awards, and has earned her Masters of Arts degree in Writing from Seton Hill University, where she is now a faculty member. Over twenty novels and numerous short stories later, Maria’s learned a thing or three about writing. Bored at work and needing a creative outlet, she started writing fantasy and science fiction stories.

Much to her chagrin, forecasting the weather wasn’t in her skill set so she spent a number of years as an environmental meteorologist, which is not exciting.at all. Snyder was younger, she aspired to be a storm chaser in the American Midwest so she attended Pennsylvania State University and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Meteorology.

En net als Trella beseft dat ze zich niet langer afzijdig kan houden, doet ze nóg een ontdekking, een bijzonder angstaanjagende.Įr is iets Buiten. Iemand pleegt sabotage, waardoor het voortbestaan van Binnen in gevaar komt. Al snel blijkt haar ruzie met Riley nog de minste van haar problemen (ook al is ze nog zo verdrietig dat hij haar niet meer wil zien). Ze vertelt hem dan ook niets van haar opzienbarende ontdekking. Trella haat al die verantwoordelijkheid en gaat liever het gedeelte van Binnen verkennen waar nog nooit iemand is geweest, ook al haalt ze zich daarmee de woede van haar vriendje Riley op haar hals. Ze had gedacht dat oppers en sloven nu vredig samen zouden kunnen leven en dat zij lekker kon doen waar ze zin in had, maar niets is minder waar. Tot ze de mythische Poort naar Buiten ontdekte en een geslaagde opstand ontketende tegen de oppers. Vroeger was Trella een sloof, alleen goed genoeg om de buizen van Binnen schoon te maken.
