Description
Spinning Silver is a captivating fantasy novel by Naomi Novik, an imaginative retelling of the Rumpelstiltskin fairy tale. In this beautifully crafted love story, the boundaries between wonder and terror are blurred, and safety can be stolen as quickly as a kiss. Miryem, a young woman from a family of moneylenders, takes matters into her own hands when her father's inability to collect debts leaves them on the edge of poverty. Her hardening of the heart leads her to claim what is owed, and she soon gains a reputation for being able to turn silver into gold. However, an ill-advised boast draws the attention of the king of the Staryk, a realm of fey creatures who seem more ice than flesh, and Miryem's fate, along with that of two kingdoms, will be forever altered. As Miryem faces an impossible challenge, she uncovers a secret that threatens the lands of humans and Staryk alike, along with two unlikely allies. With its vastness of ideas and people, this novel is a rich and complex tale that will keep you engaged until the very end.
