Ce que les critiques en disent

"A beautiful deep-winter story, full of magic and monsters and the sharp edges of growing up." (Naomi Novik)

Les plus pertinents

An absolutely beautiful story about family, courage, prejudice, and legacy. Beautifully written with fantastic characters, this is a series I wholeheartedly recommend to all lovers of fantasy and Russian folklore.

Vasya continues to be one of my favourite fantasy protagonists. Despite what everyone tells her, Vasya refuses to obey the standards society sets for her. Instead, she forges her own path and makes her own choices, never backing down even when the situation spirals out control.

The relationship Vasya has with her family--both those she's met and those she is introduced to--is delightfully complex. Choices are made, arguments are hand, and nothing is simple for our tenacious hero. The same can be said of the friends she makes, as some of them carry devastating secrets.

There are more action set pieces, especially near the end, which make for a thrilling read. All of the descriptions and prose are elegant and truly bring to life the majesty of Russian history. I've adored both books in the series so far and can't wait to see how it wraps up.
