ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
In Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder, Yelena, a young woman convicted of murder, is given a choice between execution and becoming the Commander's food taster. Choosing the latter, she enters a world of political intrigue and deadly toxins. To ensure her compliance, Yelena must consume a daily dose of antidote to counteract a lethal poison in her system.
As Yelena trains to identify poisons, she uncovers secrets and navigates the dangerous landscape of Ixia, where the Commander's strict rule and the ambitions of military leaders create constant threats. The story explores themes of survival, power, and self-discovery as Yelena learns to harness her skills and confront the forces that seek to control her.
