Hardening her heart, the young woman sets out to claim what is owed and soon gains a reputation for being able to turn silver into gold. When an ill-advised boast draws the attention of the king of the Staryk—grim fey creatures who seem more ice than flesh—Miryem’s fate, and that of two kingdoms, will be forever altered. She will face an impossible challenge and, along with two unlikely allies, uncover a secret that threatens to consume the lands of humans and Staryk alike.<br><br><b>Includes the new bonus short story “Hoodwinked”</b><br><br><b>Praise for <i>Spinning Silver</i></b><br><br><b>ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: <i>The New York Times Book Review, </i>NPR, <i>Time, Tordotcom, Popsugar, Vox, Vulture, Paste, Bustle, Library Journal</i></b><br><br>“A perfect tale . . .
