Using the Nebula Award-winning Uprooted, Naomi Novik opened an excellent new chapter in an already acclaimed career, delving into the magic of fairy tales to craft a love story that was both timeless and utterly of the now. Rotating Silver draws visitors deeper into this glittering realm of fantasy, where in fact the boundary between question and terror is certainly thinner than a breath, and safety could be stolen as quickly as a kiss.

Miryem may be the child and granddaughter of moneylenders, but her father’s inability to collect his bad debts has still left his family for the advantage of poverty-until Miryem takes matters into her own hands. Hardening her center, the young girl units out to state what’s owed and soon gains a reputation for being able to turn silver into yellow metal. When an ill-advised boast draws the attention from the king of the Staryk-grim fey creatures who seem even more ice than flesh-Miryem’s destiny, and that of two kingdoms, will become forever altered. She will face an impossible challenge and, along with two improbable allies, uncover a top secret that threatens to consume the lands of human beings and Staryk alike.
