In New York City where we lay our scene, two rival witch families fight to maintain control of their respective criminal ventures. On one side of the conflict are the Antonova sisters, each one beautiful, cunning, and ruthless, and their mother, the elusive supplier of premium intoxicants known only as Baba Yaga. On the other side, the influential Fedorov brothers serve their father, the crime boss known as Koschei the Deathless, whose community extortion ventures dominate the shadows of magical Manhattan.After twelve years of tenuous coexistence, a change in one family’s interests causes a rift in the existing stalemate. When bad blood brings both families to the precipice of disaster, fate intervenes with a chance encounter, and in the aftershocks of a resurrected conflict, everyone must choose a side. As each of the siblings struggles to stake their claim, fraying loyalties threaten to rot each side from the inside out.If, that is, the enmity between empires doesn’t destroy them first.

Rezension von Valentina StevicEs war emotional aber es hat mich nicht gepackt :( Der Schreibstil war wunderschön, wirklich sehr sehr lyrisch. Trotzdem war er leicht zu lesen und nicht kompliziert. Die Lovestorys waren sehr süß und herzzerreißend, ich hatte echt öfter Pipi in den Augen. Die Storyline war an sich auch sehr sehr spannend. Leider war die Geschichte trotzdem einfach zu schnell. Es passierte alles so schnell obwohl man viel Platz hatte die Story auszubauen. Auch war das Magiesytem etwas Schwammig und auch das ganze Thema Tot und Leben wurde sehr schwammig behandelt. Das Ende war nochmal richtig gut aber auch wieder sehr schnell. Der Epilog hat mir aber gefallen. Ich mochte es an sich ganz gerne aber ich habe es nicht enjoyed zu lesen. Ich war froh als es aus war. Ich weiß nicht ob ich empfehlen kann. Es ist echt gut aber auf der anderen Seite eben einfach nicht meins :(
Rezension von vita wirtI don’t know how it is possible that I love one book by this author, then hate the next one and then again go back to loving a book of her. This time the stars have been all aligned: loose Romeo & Juliet retelling, Russian criminal witch families from NYC and a story that had me from the first sentence. Tbh in the mid-end it felt a little low, but overall I was so captivated by this story, that I am still giving all the stars ✨
