Natalya knows a secret.
A magical Faberge egg glows within the walls of Russia's Winter Palace. It holds a power rooted in the land and stolen from the mystics. A power that promises a life of love for her and Alexei Romanov. Power, that, in the right hands, can save her way of life.
But it's in the wrong hands.
An epic romance with glittering magical elements, Tsarina is swirling with beautiful prose, stark Russian contrasts, and lavish visuals perfect for fans of Libba Bray's A Great and Terrible Beauty.
"Starred Review. Romance, adventure, magic and history blend seamlessly into a story that is not just historically sensitive and gloriously thrilling - it's essential moral reading." - Kirkus
"Climaxing in a mystical struggle for the magical object, the book's murky finish confirms Natalya's deep love for Russia but casts some confusion as to her future. Ages 12–up." - Publishers Weekly
"A raw and elegant tale of a country on the brink of revolution and a girl who will do anything to save her beloved Russia." - Brenna Yovanoff, NY Times Bestselling author of The Replacement
