The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden

5.0

We follow a family living in a village near the forest, and specially the coming of age of Vasya, a witch, and the spirits surrounding their home. All the balance of their world is threaten by changes in their beliefs.

A tale about tales, heavily based on russian folklore, History and mystic traditions.
Short chapters, fast paced and gripping from the start.
Very well written and easy to read.

It was fascinating, I'm so glad it's a serie!
