Maggiori informazioni sul libro
From acclaimed author Ava Reid comes a gothic horror retelling of The Juniper Tree, set in a world where a young witch grapples with her identity and the oppressive rule of her abusive wizard father. Marlinchen and her two sisters, the last true witches of Oblya, navigate a city in turmoil as it transitions from magic to industry. Their father, a tyrannical and xenophobic figure, confines them to a life of servitude, treating their witchcraft as mere tourist attractions. By day, Marlinchen divines secrets for clients, but by night, she and her sisters escape to enjoy the city's vibrant nightlife, particularly the newly opened ballet theater, where Marlinchen falls for a dancer. As her secret romance intensifies, so does her father's wrath, threatening to unleash his dark magic. Amidst the cultural renaissance of Oblya, a lurking monster, born from intolerance and resentment, poses a dire threat. Caught in a struggle between tradition and progress, love and fear, Marlinchen must harness her own magic to protect her city and carve out her place within it.
