Red Snow (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798232143404)

SYNOPSIS

RED SNOW

The Cursed Queen, within her glacial castle, feels time relentlessly stealing her legendary beauty. Her sole confidant is a demonic mirror, an ancient chained entity that reflects only her darkest desires: immortality, which can only be obtained with the blood of Snow White, a young servant with porcelain skin and hair that burns like flames.

The hunt is brutal and immediate. Snow White barely escapes being butchered by a mercenary, left badly wounded and thrown into a freezing river. On the brink of death, fate-or pure chance-delivers her into the arms of seven blacksmith brothers, men as rough and seasoned as the iron they forge. Under their protection, and baptized as Red Snow, the young woman finds not only a sanctuary, but a reason to fight and the family she never had.

But peace is an ephemeral luxury. Driven by a cannibalistic hunger, the Witch unleashes a reign of terror, kidnapping and devouring young women to sustain her power, while her mirror tracks Red Snow's every move with an insatiable thirst.

Dragged into a war they never sought, Red Snow and her brothers must abandon the safety of the forge to face bloody and explosive battles against the unleashed hordes of tyranny: cursed creatures rising from the darkness and monstrosities of the Mirror, including the savage and feared Black Orcs who sow destruction with their axes.

To survive, they must forge a desperate alliance with outlaws and a coven of ancient witches. They will have to craft impossible weapons, unearth deadly secrets, and defy a local tyrant whose iron fist threatens to break them all.

In this twisted world where fairytales are nightmares, Red Snow will not be the maiden waiting to be saved. She will be the archer who defends her home, the strategist who reads the enemy's plans, and the sister who forges her own legend. But the Witch lurks in every shadow, and her feast of youth and blood is far from over.

Can an orphan and seven iron brothers change the bloody ending of a story written by obsession and evil?

A dark and visceral reinvention of a classic, where beauty is a weapon, family is forged in adversity, and survival carries a price of steel and flesh that someone must pay.
