Description
Will dark magic claim their home? From the author of the award-winning Uprooted, Naomi Novik’s Spinning Silver is a rich, original tale inspired by the folktale of Rumpelstiltskin. Miryem is the daughter and granddaughter of moneylenders, but her father is too kind-hearted to collect his debts. Facing poverty, she hardens her heart and takes up his work in their village. Her success sparks a rumour that she can turn silver into gold, attracting the fairy king of winter, who sets her an impossible challenge: if she fails, she will die, but if she succeeds, she may face a fate worse than death. In her desperate efforts, Miryem unwittingly draws in the unhappy daughter of a lord. Irina’s father schemes to marry her to the tsar, whatever the cost, but the dashing tsar is not what he seems, and the secret he hides threatens to consume both the mortal lands and the realm of winter.
