Descripción
This dark fantasy novel follows Marisha, whose family has been lost to a sleeping plague and who fears she will be next. Penniless and desperate for protection, she becomes an apprentice to the notorious koldunya Baba Zima. Drawn into the magical world of koldunry, Marisha is tasked with finding a cure for the plague, which could finally set her free. Her increasingly dangerous search reveals hidden connections between the plague, her family history and haunting dreams of a masked ball where sleepers are trapped in endless dancing, as well as a monstrous beaked man who follows her every step. Rich in Slavic folklore, the story features a magical masked ball, a reimagining of Baba Yaga, a house on chicken legs and childhood enemies who become lovers. Sweeping and lyrical, it is a tale of dark whimsy, romance, folk magic, hope, fear, obsession and found family.
