For a young woman in medieval Russia, the choices are stark:
marriage or life in a convent. Vasya will choose a third way:
magic. . . The court of the Grand Prince of Moscow is plagued by
power struggles and rumours of unrest. Meanwhile bandits roam the
countryside, burning the villages and kidnapping its daughters.
Setting out to defeat the raiders, the Prince and his trusted
companion come across a young man riding a magnificent horse. Only
Sasha, a priest with a warrior's training, recognises this 'boy' as
his younger sister, thought to be dead or a witch by her village.
But when Vasya proves herself in battle, riding with remarkable
skill and inexplicable power, Sasha realises he must keep her
secret as she may be the only way to save the city from threats
both human and fantastical. . . A spellbinding fairytale full of
magic and wonder, perfect for fans of Erin Morgenstern's The Night
Circus and Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials. *Make sure you've
read all the books in the Winternight Trilogy* 1. The Bear and the
Nightingale 2. The Girl in the Tower 3. The Winter of the Witch
