Deep in the Russian mountains, two peasants discover a magical realm. But will this power bring good fortune or bad?
This book hit the spot. I loved it, and I thought it was even better than The Arrow and the Crown. The dual protagonists were lovable. The villains were mysterious and not made of cardboard. I also loved the supporting cast.
This book is based on a fairy tale that I’m not familiar with, so, for me, it read like a story set in a fairy tale world. It didn’t feel strange or contrived in any way, which sometimes happens with a retelling when you aren’t familiar with the source. You don’t NEED to know the source story to enjoy this one.
This is a sweet romance, too! Perfect for teens who want clean, mature romance. No spice, just heart.
I’m very much looking forward to Emma C. Fox’s next book!
