"Una" is the fourth book in the "Seven Spindles" series (the publisher has previously released "Mia", "Chiara", and "Tairin"), but readers are free to choose the order in which they explore the stories, for everyone has their own path. Each new book tells the story of another girl who has been granted a special gift—the power to destroy or preserve worlds. In this series, the author's skill is revealed in an unexpected way, and the fairy tales acquire a particular depth and parable-like quality. Far, far from the capital of the Empire, in the cold northern sea, lies a deserted spindle-shaped island. Two people live there: a grumpy old man and a silent girl. The old man has a book that he prays to every morning, and thick notebooks in which he records every day he lives. The girl has nothing: no toys, no parents, no name. But one day a bird flies to the island, and the old man dies...
The novella "Una" continues the "Seven Spindles" series—a captivating fantasy by Tamara Mikheeva, the author of many works for children and young adults and recipient of several literary awards.
