THE WORLD TEETERS ON THE EDGE OF ETERNAL SLUMBER . . .

Marisha's time is running out. She's already lost her family to the sleeping plague, and she fears she'll be next. Penniless and desperate for protection, Marisha is forced to accept a job as apprentice to the notorious koldunya, Baba Zima.

Despite Baba Zima's reputation for cruelty, Marisha finds herself drawn into the magical world of koldunry, and is thrust into looking for a cure to the plague - if Marisha finds it, she will finally be free.

As the search grows increasingly dangerous and seemingly impossible, Marisha uncovers hidden connections between the sleeping plague, her own family's history, and her haunting dreams: of a masked ball where sleepers are trapped endlessly dancing - and a monstrous beaked man who shadows her every step . . .

Reviews for The House of Frost and Feathers: The Sunday Times bestselling magical Slavic folktale retelling

**PRAISE FOR HOUSE OF FROST AND FEATHERS** Sweeping and lyrical, rich with folk magic, House of Frost and Feathers is an otherwordly dream of a read. Combining the wonder and beauty of magical winter landscapes with the creeping dread of relentless pursuit and the darkness between doorways, Weisebron's transporting debut is the perfect book to curl up with on a chilly night * Jules Arbeaux, author of Lord of the Empty Isles *
