The House of Frost and Feathers
´A DARK ENCHANTMENT . . . WILL SWEEP YOU AWAY LIKE A CHICKEN-LEGGED HOUSE ON SKIS´ M.A. KUZNIAR
Marisha´s time is running out. She´s already lost her family to the sleeping plague, and she fears she´ll be next. Penniless and desperate for protection, Marisha is forced to accept a job as apprentice to the notorious koldunya, Baba Zima.
Despite Baba Zima´s reputation for cruelty, Marisha finds herself drawn into the magical world of koldunry, and is thrust into looking for a cure to the plague - if Marisha finds it, she will finally be free.
As the search grows increasingly dangerous and seemingly impossible, Marisha uncovers hidden connections between the sleeping plague, her own family´s history, and her haunting dreams: of a masked ball where sleepers are trapped endlessly dancing - and a monstrous beaked man who shadows her every step . . .
Tropes:
A magical masked ball
Slavic folklore
A Baba Yaga reimagining
A house on chicken legs
Childhood enemies . . . to lovers
