Spinning Silver

Naomi Novik
Adult Fiction - SF Novik

A fantasy medieval tale with elements of the classic “Rumplestiltskin” story, Spinning Silver focuses on Miryem, a business-savvy daughter who takes over her father’s failing enterprise. She seemingly turns copper and silver into gold by accumulating and selling debts for services and goods others want. This attracts the attention of the Staryk, coldhearted fairies who covet gold. Set against a winter landscape, Miryem accepts the challenge to turn fairy silver into gold. Success will make Miryem a queen; failure has chilling consequences.
