![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This book is more complex then Uprooted following several characters and storylines that eventually blend together. That is not to say that they will not end up with a prince in the end, it is just they do not play the classic role of damsel in distress. Like many fantasy books today, the lead characters are strong woman looking to solve their own issues and make their way in the world. The basic concept of being able to turn silver to gold is a main theme of the book, but otherwise the story is very different. I will be honest I have been waiting for this novel to be published ever since I read (and loved) Uprooted, also by Naomi Novik, and winner of the 2015 Nebula award for best novel.Īlthough Spinning Silver has been marketed as a retelling of the Rumpelstiltskin novel, it is very loosely based on it. ![]()
