The Bear and the Nightingale is an exciting mix of fantasy, folklore, Russian history, adventure, and just a touch of romance.
The characters are a little hard to keep track of at first, but if you stick with it you’ll fall in love with Pyotr’s family as you watch his children grow into strong, independent adults.
I didn’t want to leave this world, and I am so glad to have book 2 to look forward to!
