Where the dark stands still wer. angielska - A. B. Poranek - książka
Producent: Penguin Books
**Where the Dark Stands Still** represents a remarkable debut, where romance intertwines with poetic, atmospheric prose, drawing readers into the enchanting realms of Polish folklore. According to Sarah Underwood, a New York Times bestselling author known for "Lies We Sing to the Sea," this novel captivates the imagination, transporting you to a world you won't want to leave. Set in a hauntingly beautiful, gothic landscape, this fairytale romance is ideal for admirers of Adalyn Grace's "Belladonna" and V.E. Schwab's "Gallant." The story follows Liska Radost, who grew up in a small village bordering the mysterious spirit-wood. Her perception of magic as a monstrous force and its wielders as monsters becomes more complex after she accidentally taps into her own powers with disastrous outcomes. Captured by the Leszy, the forest's demon warden, she is presented with a deal: one year of servitude for a cherished wish. Liska is whisked away to a decaying manor, where she uncovers an unsettling truth—she is not the first to walk this path, as those before her vanished inexplicably. To endure the year and find her way home, Liska must untangle the dark secrets of her enigmatic host and confront the specters of his past. Poranek’s writing skillfully balances unease and enchantment, crafting lyrical narratives filled with atmospheric beauty. The romance between a grumpy character and a sunshine-like spirit adds depth to this poignant and mystical story, as noted by Bea Fitzgerald, the bestselling author of "Girl, Goddess, Queen." Kika Hatzopoulou, author of the Sunday Times Bestseller "Threads that Bind," describes it as a captivating tale laced with delicate romance and deep self-discovery. Against a backdrop of a gothic fairy tale, it unfolds like a dream. Lyndall Clipstone, author of "Unholy Terrors" and the "World at the Lake's Edge" duology, invites readers into a whimsically dark forest where secrets and bargains present a chance for newfound hope.
