| Description | A magical new stand-alone novel with an entrancing fairy-tale feel, from the author of the highly acclaimed The Sisters of the Winter Wood This is how a fairy tale begins . . . Deep in the Hungarian woods, the sacred magic of King Solomon lives on in his descendants. Gathering under the midnight stars, they perform small miracles and none are more gifted than the great Rabbi Isaac and his three daughters. Hannah, bookish and calm, can coax plants to grow even when the weather is bitterly cold. Sarah, defiant and strong, can control the impulsive nature of fire. And Levana, the fey one, can read the path of the stars to decipher their secrets. But darkness is creeping across Europe, threatening the lives of every Jewish person in every village. Each sister will have to make an impossible choice in an effort to survive - and change the fate of their family for ever. Enter a magical world of secrets, family ties and fairy tales weaving through history . . . perfect for fans of The Bear and the Nightingale and Spinning Silver. Review Highly recommended for lovers of Naomi Novik's Spinning Silver and her 'Scholomance' series, as well as readers who enjoy their fantasy steeped in myths from infrequently represented people and places- LIBRARY JOURNAL The Light of the Midnight Stars is storytelling as spellcasting. Rossner has conjured something vivid and wild and true -- Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of THE MERCIES Rossner's tale is as lyrical as the slow growth of roots, the quick dance of fire and the stately procession of the stars. Blending folktale with history, hope with tragedy, its touch will linger on your heart long after you put it down -- Marie Brennan, author of the Memoirs of Lady Trent series Rossner creates a lush, immersive world . . . The result is as lovely as it is heartbreaking -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY Rossner has crafted a masterful tale blending Jewish mysticism, fairy tales, and history in this story about three girls who wield the sacred magic of King Solomon's descendants ... This spectacular coming-of-age story shows the evolution that each of the sisters moves through to find their ending -- BOOKLIST A welcome tribute to Jewish resilience in the face of oppression, imbued with elemental magic, folkloric traditions, and the transcendent power of love -- Jordanna Max Brodsky, author of THE WOLF IN THE WHALE |
We give things a new story. We sell and buy books, Lego sets, board games and PC games. In the beginning, it was the wish of two enthusiasts to improve the functioning of second-hand bookstores and be beneficial to the world. Today, we create a huge community of conscious people who are looking for a sustainable shopping choice from a financial and environmental perspective. And with them, with you, we write new stories of things that would otherwise remain forgotten. We will send you the money for everything you sell to us immediately. With us, you don't wait for the books to sell. We will do what we say. We believe that even the smallest details are of great importance, so we think through every aspect of our business, from the way we buy books, through packaging materials to communication with each of you. We have designed our Restocks loyalty program of shopping credits to reward you for every support you give.
