Book excerpt: "Forest born! Ogre child! You're nothing but a demon wild!" Vasilisa has always been strong. She's strong enough to break the arm of the bully that daily taunts her. She won't because she and her mother are servants at the Orlov manor, and her mother would be punished for her retaliation. Instead Vasilisa bides her time until she is sixteen and can return to the forest. Only Staver, the master's son, shows her kindness. His friendship pulls as strong as the forest, but their classes are divided forever by law. She is a forest born, fatherless servant and her future at the manor holds mockery filled drudgery. War threatens. The forest calls. Will she stay to protect the one who can never be more than a friend, or flee to the peace that the forest offers? A retelling of the Russian fairytale Vasilisa and Staver Whitney Award Nominee 2020

Book excerpt: It's 1919, but in Edenfall, Pennsylvania, the Great War is not over -- not for Vasilisa, at least. Papa is presumed dead on the fields of Flanders, Mama is being courted by an absolute ogre, and now Babka, her beloved grandma, has had a bad spell. Or has she fallen under one? Only the Old Tales, the Russian fables Vasilisa was raised on, offer any comfort or counsel. But what if they are more than child's tales? Enter Ivan, who jumps a train at midnight and finds Vasilisa in a real fix. He's on his own quest, but Old Rus is calling from across time and both worlds, and if they heed the call, they might both get what they want. It won't be easy. Three witches, two children, one ogre - they're outnumbered and outclassed. Vasilisa has a secret weapon, in the humblest of guises, but will the meek truly inherit the earth? Or will the mighty prevail? One thing is certain: it's a fairy tale of their own making, a tale whose happy ending is ever in doubt.

The Queen is not very friendly to say the least and tries her best to see the girl dead. Vasilisa does not scare easily, read for yourself: "...'Did you enjoy your last meal, cutie?' said a low, cackling voice from the dark of the cave. The witch snapped her fingers and several torches along the wall shot out fire. Standing now in front of Vasilisa, the witch could as well have been a thousand years old. Her long twisted chin rested in the middle of her chest, her nose reached far away from her wrinkled face, blazing red eyes were half hidden under the bushy eyebrows and her skin was almost black from dirt and old age. Stinky gray hair stood straight up on her head, as if terrified of the owner."
