A rejected son with a hidden power.
A forgotten sorceress with the blessing of a goddess.
Forced apart for years, only together can they end winter's reign.
Waclaw has always dreamed of a purpose. Except he's never actually dreamed. Each night, his soul leaves his body and wanders the world, free from the scorn of his father and mocking of his tribe. If only he understood why.
The entire village fears Otylia, but she prefers it that way. She's a szeptucha, a whispering channeler of her goddesses. Everyone's abandoned her-even Waclaw, her once best friend-but her goddesses never would.
Marzanna, goddess of winter, has stolen everything from Otylia. The goddess's death in spring is Otylia's annual retribution. But when Otylia discovers Waclaw bearing Marzanna's Frostmark on what should be the last day of winter, she realizes the dark truth.
Spring will not come, and only Waclaw can help her find out why.
On the journey that follows, Waclaw and Otylia must face menacing demons, cursed forests, and even death itself. If they have any hope of surviving, first they must rekindle the connection they have lost.
Enter a new world rooted in Slavic mythology and folklore that's full of powerful gods, terrifying spirits and creatures, rampaging warlords, and plenty of secrets to uncover.
