'Bewitching' - Gregory Maguire, author of Wicked 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 Majesty's 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.

  1. En underbar saga
    Christina, 19 november 2018

    En fantastisk saga i en helt egen stil. Förtrollande, spännande med många dolda sanningar och med ett kraftfullt moraliskt budskap.

  2. Uprooted sprudlar av berättarglädje och värme
    Sandra Jönsson, 12 juli 2016

    "Inget ställe i boken är för hemskt och mörkt för att inte kunna lättas upp med Noviks vältajmade skämt, varför jag med saknad, liksom rädd för att gå miste om den sprudlande värmen, kände ett visst vemod inför att läsa den sista sidan i boken."
