Iarna vrăjitoarei

Vasea hopes to bring peace by defeating the forces of evil. But events soon shake her faith in that plan. Weak ties between allies may break. Mistakes can cost lives. Nature adds risks that no one can control. Vasea must use her wits, show courage, and take risks. She must also join forces with the enemy she fears most.

Katherine Arden blends magic with folk tales and lore. She adds plots about power and themes about women’s rights. This fantasy novel is for young adults. It has harsh battles and painful losses. Yet hope stays with Vasea on her path toward victory.

This third book ends the series and brings Vasea’s struggles to a close. The first book was Ursul si privighetoarea. The next was Fata din turn. Ruxandra Gogu-Stoichita put this edition into words from English.
