Descriere

A dark enchantment blights the land in the award-winning Uprooted – a captivating fantasy inspired by fairy tales and steeped in Slavic folklore. From the author of A Deadly Education and His Majestys Dragon, Naomi Novik.

‘A great heroine, new takes on old myths and legends, and surprising twists and turns. A delight’ – Cassandra Clare, author of 
Sword Catcher

Agnieszka loves her village, set deep in a peaceful valley. But the nearby enchanted forest casts a shadow over her home. Many have been lost to the Wood and none return unchanged. The villagers depend on an ageless wizard, the Dragon, to protect them from the forest’s dark magic. However, his help comes at a terrible price. One young village woman must serve him for ten years, leaving all they love and value behind.

The next choosing is fast approaching, and Agnieszka fears her dearest friend Kasia will be picked next, for she’s everything Agnieszka is not – beautiful, graceful and brave. Yet when the Dragon comes, it's not Kasia he takes . . .

Uprooted is a stunning, romantic fantasy filled with unexpected twists, beautiful friendships and fierce battles against dark forces.

Recenzii

Uprooted by Naomi Novik is enchanting, in every sense of that fine old word. A charming and inviting story that looks unflinchingly at the strangling roots of hurt and revenge -- Robin Hobb, author of Assassin's Apprentice

The magic in Uprooted, with its realistic moral dimension, is so vividly believable that it almost seems you could work the spells -- Ursula K. Le Guin, author of A Wizard of Earthsea

Every so often you come upon a story that seems like a lost tale of Grimm newly come to light. Uprooted is such a novel. Its narrative spell is confidently wrought and sympathetically cast. I might even call it bewitching -- Gregory Maguire, author of Wicked

Wild, thrilling, and deeply, darkly magical. An instant classic -- Lev Grossman, author of The Magicians

Uprooted has everything I love: a great heroine, new takes on old myths and legends, and surprising twists and turns. A delight -- Cassandra Clare, author of City of Bones and Sword Catcher

Magical and practical, otherworldly and planted in the real, I could NOT stop reading this book and neither will you! -- Tamora Pierce, author of the Song of the Lioness series

The roots of Uprooted are planted deep in fairy tale lore, but the story that Naomi Novik has coaxed forth is fresh and compelling. It reads like a previously undiscovered origin myth -- Jacqueline Carey, author of Kushiel's Dart

Uprooted is one of those tales you come back to over and over again because it's just that enchanting . . . Novik delivers a conclusion that's deeply satisfying, earning a permanent space on my bookshelf -- Kevin Hearn, author of The Iron Druid Chronicles

A marvelous fantasy reminiscent of Howl's Moving Castle and vastly superior to The Hobbit. Her characters, setting, and the magic they use are all brilliant. I devoured the book in one reading -- Todd McCaffrey, author of Dragonheart
