This book was great 2nd book in a trilogy. It is second book in Winternight Trilogy and sequel to The Bear and the Nightingale. This whole trilogy is inspired by Slavic folklore, is set in medieval Russia and features real historical facts about things and people from that time period and setting. It has great characters and great plot. This book has a lot more things happening and is a lot more plot driven than 1st one which is really slow and character driven. I personally liked other 2 books in trilogy a lot more than this one but it still was 5 out of 5 stars for me and one of the favourites of the year in 2020 when I read it. The plot and the characters were interesting and really great. I loved setting of medieval Russia which you don't see all that often in books, most books are inspired by medieval Russia and not set in it unlike this trilogy which not only is set in it but also has characters modeled by real people from that time period in Russia. It was really great to see creatures from my own mythology.
