Description:
„This story lies between the everyday and the mythical.
Gods, immortals, and humans form a complex tapestry of existence. Young Malva — chosen and immortal — faces the challenge of understanding her powers, finding her path, and defending the ancient harmony between good and evil, darkness and light. Malva travels through worlds, visits the dark lands of her father Stryb, and confronts incomprehensible forces. Bold and sharp-tongued, she initially underestimates the power of darkness. Each step reveals new layers of the dark side — in the world and within herself. The novel portrays darkness not as absolute evil but as a force that tests, strengthens, and guides self-discovery, while Slavic mythology is closely woven into the narrative.“ READBERRY
