Ukraine’s Screeching Ravens

An authentic, well-researched and immersive Ukrainian story, about its culture, magic and folklore, for young adult readers, with a distinct and memorable voice. The raven tilted its glossy head, its eye an orb of blue fire. “The power of Slavic Sorcery ... it’s in you!” Darkness will rise. Enemies will strike. Ukraine's deepest magic awakens! Dark magic is spreading through Ukraine. But it’s not just people who are in danger, it’s the ancient spirit world, especially the beautiful, water-dwelling rusalkas. Dariya, a brooding girl, and Ukraine’s least likely hero, sets out with her peers to investigate. From whispering fields to haunted mansions to terrifying forests, ghosts, witches, wild spirits, and giant spectral mammoths come to life. Dariya must harness the Slavic magic within – or lose everything to the encroaching darkness.
