The Wolf and the Woodsman
by Ava Reid
Our rating
Spice: mild. Darkness: very dark.
Évike is the one girl in her pagan village with no magic, so she's the one handed over to the king's zealot soldiers. Then she ends up stranded in the woods with their one-eyed captain. Hungarian and Jewish folklore, a lot of body horror and a slow, prickly romance.
