Publisher's summary
A dark enchantment blights the land.
Agnieszka loves her village, set deep in a peaceful valley. But the nearby enchanted forest casts a shadow over her home. Many have been lost to the Wood, and none returns unchanged. The villagers depend on an ageless wizard, the Dragon, to protect them from the forest's dark magic. However, his help comes at a terrible price. One young village woman must serve him for 10 years, leaving all she values behind.
Agnieszka fears her dearest friend, Kasia, will be picked at the next choosing, for she's everything Agnieszka is not - beautiful, graceful and brave. Yet when the Dragon comes, it's not Kasia he takes.

Wonderful
As I get older I get more jaded, and lose some of the sense of wonderment that was so essential a part of reading tales and fantasy when I was younger. This book managed to transport me back decades! It is wonderfully narrated, and beautifully crafted. I loved the main character, and the lesser-known setting of Poland and Russia for this powerful fantasy. It kept me interested and invested, and I was so sorry when it was over, though I found the ending satisfying.

confused about the hugely varied reviews? read thi
Ok so the first 5 chapters she is a bit whiney and whinge repetitively about her predicament. he's a miserable negative pratt but do stick with it. the book totally redeems itself soon after and it's a great book. The narrator is perfect for the character, at once whimsical and aloof and real too so you feel you know agnieshka. I'm sure I spelt that wrong, ah well. The wood is fascinating and the magic gets better and better. a highly engaging book.

Great fantasy book!
The story was great, thrilling and exciting. The narration is also wonderful, I've listened to a sample of the other narration and was so glad to listen to Katy Sobey's.

Haunting and poetic
I truly loved this audio book. The narration was perfect in pitch, pace and emotional interpretation. The tale engrossing. I was riveted to my iPod until the end. A perfect fantasy for mature young adults and older.
The blurb is a little misleading, but it drew me in as I love dragons. I forgave the absence of a fire breathing dragon as the story unfolds steadily and inexorably in the fight of good against evil. The world building is detailed and the magic so believable.
This is an amazing stand alone adult fantasy with genuine characters. It is a testament to love, friendship, loyalty, sacrifice and redemption. Such a complex plot. No spoilers. Just be assured that if you enjoy fantasy, this is a must listen.

So Addictive!
This story had me so addicted i feel like i'm in withdrawal now, finished it some hours ago and i cant's stop crying over the fact that it's over. Don't let the first few chapters fool you, it quickly becomes an amazing fairytail full of empowerment and wonder <3
I've never ever felt like this after finishing a book

A beautiful telling
This is a gem of a story, gracefully presented and told with the language to match. Some stories are a pleasure to listen to purely because they are beautifully written, but this has all three; Great story, well written, and perfectly narrated.
Highly recommend!

Magical Story
A mystical world that sweeps you away in a unique story of magic and adventure (and just a hint of romance).

Ok
I generally liked the book and story, and the performance was good, but the awkward sex portions was extremely annoying.

great voice actor, and a lovely fantasy story, with a captivating world.
interesting Villan👍
(the review was too short, or as I like to call it "concise", so throwing some more words here, they are not important tho': pink elefants wearing batlle armor in a kiddie pool fighting an army of angry bees.)
