I thoroughly enjoyed both the book and the series! A funny thing. A number of people have asked me if I thought they would enjoy it, and I am never sure how to answer. I always respond saying you have to appreciate all the elements. Its a little bit historical fantasy, some mythology, fairy tale, Russia and the cold of Winter, witches and other realms, magical power through bloodlines, all of those sort of things wrapped together has to be your thing.

Vasya is a young motherless girl in cold Russia. She also has powers to see that her family doesn't share and her step=mother fears. She is related to royalty in Russia but carries a different kind of bloodline as well. One she eventually shares with a young niece. This tale, told over three books involves mythical twins the Winter King and the Bear, a Nightingale, flying magical horses, Prince Dmitri of Russia and the Tartars, the Priesthood, and a snowy war between good and evil, and everything in between. Sound like your thing? It was definitely mine!

I loved the first book - have been meaning to get to this one
