Dramatic battles, tense political intrigue, unique world building...and is that maybe some romance I'm sensing? These books are not Romantasy but focus primarily on the SFF elements. Romance is a subplot and may not appear until later in the series, but when it does, you won't be disappointed.

I’m really loving how Arden very clearly articulates the shift that happened with Christianity taking over Russia. Morozko saying he’s not a god anymore, Anna seeing the domovoy and bannik and assuming they’re demons, etc. Vasya’s family being more northern/remote and keeping a blend of pre-Christian practices while also being Christian is very accurate as well. Also? The pacing is perfect. I’m loving how lyrical and slow and deliberate everything is.

I’m loving the writing and the world building so far. Very excited and happy I picked this up (my beautiful partner actually downloaded this for me on my behalf 🥺💛). I actually know very little about Swan Lake, so most of this is new to me. The pacing is a lot faster than I expected, so that’s intriguing too. Although I’m not sure how this compares to Swan Lake and its various adaptations

What a beautifully written epilogue. I love this style of writing and would love to read more like this from the author. Very fairytale-like

It was sweet and nice. Cute. Lots of queerness and diversity. But the story was maybe too light for me. There was depth, for sure. But still very light. All conflict also gets resolved super quickly and ideally. Nice, but a little wishywashy (?), and maybe more middle grade than YA. /neu Still would recommend for a breather or a bedtime story.
