THREADBOUND
About
When a powerful vizier curses Jasna, a red thread draws her to his palace while death follows close behind. Her soul, bound to stone, begins to splinter – until a desperate spell casts her into Syanka, a realm shaped by old stories.
There, Jasna must navigate a world of beasts, bargains, and unexpected allies to reclaim her soul and rescue Iliya – once her betrothed who left to plead with the vizier never to return, now a pawn in something darker. But the thread is tightening, and if she cannot reach the vizier’s palace in time, it will pull her to her death.
For fans of Spinning Silver and The Winternight Trilogy, Threadbound weaves dark magic, Slavic folklore, and Ottoman-inspired intrigue into a tale that spins across realms.
Praise for this book
This book is so well written I was so sad when it ended.
I loved the world-building and the fantastical mechanics in the story.
A story full of twists and turns and mythologies from multiple cultures, I heavily recommend this book.
What a ride! OMG.
This is an amazing book. How lovely, cozy, and interesting! It has everything that I love in a good fantasy plot: folk and mythology, different kinds of creatures (including a dragon! Yay!), found family, and so much more! The setting is whimsical, yet sometimes with a kind of dark vibe at the same time. At the beginning it brought to mind Jasmin from Aladdin and Yafar, but then it reminded me of Where the Dark Stands Still, The Subtle Knife, The Wizard of Oz, and a bit of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland; all of this in the author's own creation and incredible world-building, where you are transported from one world to another, from dreams that may come true, with magic that inspires and empowers women.
This book has several memorable quotes and breathtaking teachings. I enjoyed it so, so much! I'd love to read more books from the author!
