A warrior shrouded in darkness. A witch sworn to revenge. A winter unbounded.
Wacław is an outcast. Born with a curse he doesn't understand, he's hidden his power his entire life. But when the goddess of winter unleashes the darkness within him, his only hope for answers is the girl he's forbidden to see.
Otylia is a witch. There's no one she hates more than the winter goddess-except her once best friend Wacław. But when she receives visions of endless blizzards and Wacław fighting by her side, she realizes he's the key to uncovering the goddess's plot.
Facing monsters and magic at every turn, the pair must journey with friends and rivals alike to confront the cult of winter, but Wacław's awakened darkness grows as death consumes the living realm. To contain it, they'll have to mend their broken relationship and delve into the mysteries of their past. Mysteries that could destroy the winter goddess . . . or themselves.
In this first book of an epic fantasy series rooted in Slavic mythology, dive into a new world with menacing magic and beasts, scheming gods, a group of allied misfits, and plenty of secrets to uncover.
