![]() ![]() ![]() When I originally picked up the story, I thought it was about one heroine, but with Novik, we get three wonderfully rounded heroines. What I love about this story is its strong themes of sistership, family, and empowerment. Pastoral life mingles with the frosty world of the magical Staryk. Novik excels in creating a world touched with historical details where the enchantment of magic lies right alongside it. Uprooted remains one of my favorite retellings and Spinning Silver follows close behind. ![]() Set in a world beset by Winter's own lord of the fairies when a dangerous bargain leads three heroines on separate quests in order to free their realm from an everlasting Winter and the Staryk's cold rule.ĭark magic, dangerous bargains, and gorgeous folklore fill the pages of SPINNING SILVER making it a wonderful addition to the fairytale enthusiasts library. Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik is an enchanting fairytale inspired story loosely based on Rumplestiltskin. ![]()
