Description

When a powerful vizier curses Jasna, her soul – bound to stone – begins to splinter, until a desperate spell casts her into Syanka, a realm shaped by old stories.

To reclaim what was taken and rescue Iliya – once her betrothed, now a pawn in something darker – Jasna must face beasts and strike dangerous deals with ancient beings she once believed lived only in her Nana’s tales. But the red thread that marks her path is tightening, and the zmei she trusted is growing impatient. If she cannot reach the vizier’s palace before the thread snaps, whatever remains of her soul will unravel with it.

The Girl Who Cheated the Wind weaves dark magic, Slavic folklore, and Ottoman-inspired intrigue into a tale where wonder walks hand in hand with danger. For readers who grew up on Narnia and Alice in Wonderland and wondered what would happen if the magic turned dark.

Perfect for fans of Spinning Silver, The Bear and the Nightingale, and the dreamlike peril of Labyrinth.
