Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik

Title: Spinning Silver

Author: Naomi Novik

Review: Miryem, a moneylender with a reputation for being able to “turn silver to gold”, and Irina, a noblewoman engaged to a tsar, have nothing in common. That is, of course, until Irina realizes that a daemon is inhabiting the body of her husband— and the Staryk, strange, icy fey creatures, catch wind of Miryem’s abilities. By chance encounter, Miryem and Irina’s lives intersect— and together, they form a plan to rid themselves of these troubles once and for all. This unique twist on the tale of Rumplestiltskin is unforgettable!
