"I CAN GIVE YOU AN EMPIRE"

She died seventeen years ago.

And nobody knows.

Ketya Növak has never felt her heart beat.
Because of this, she hides herself behind needles and dancers— a shadow of a girl, hiding in a city on the verge of war. Yet there are whispers of a mysterious conquerer all around, one that threatens to burn her city to the ground.

But he isn't looking for a city to burn.

He is looking for her.

YOU DIED SCREAMING, YET THE MONSTER WHO TOOK YOUR PLACE WAS SILENT.

I don't have much to say as of now, but this is another dark fantasy. There will be mature themes as well as a lot of violence, so if you are not comfortable with that I wouldn't read this book.

Much of this book is based of Russian/ Slavic fairytales(I won't mention which yet, but for those who know their Eastern European tales, you'll know which pretty soon) and many themes similar to Deathless, by Catherynne Valente. I encourage you all to read her book, though it is Adult Fiction instead of YA.

So this is a retelling and as all retellings go, none of this book will strictly stick to the tale it is based off of.

Also, I wanted to thank all of you who continue to inspire me everyday to write more and more. All of you are so amazing.

Thank you guys for reading,
