Winner of the 2016 Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel, the 2016 British Fantasy Society Award for Best Novel, and shortlisted for the 2016 World Fantasy Award for Best Novel, Naomi Novik's Uprooted is an enthralling, mythic fantasy that will take you on a dark enchantment-filled journey. Agnieszka loves her village, nestled deep in a peaceful valley, but the nearby enchanted forest casts a menacing shadow over her home. Many have been lost to the Wood, and none have returned unchanged. Experience the award-winning magic of Uprooted today.

The villagers of the small village have long relied on the ageless wizard, the Dragon, to protect them from the dark magic of the forest. But now, a young village woman must be chosen to serve the Dragon for ten years, leaving behind all that she holds dear. Agnieszka fears that her dearest friend Kasia will be chosen at the next choosing, for she is everything Agnieszka is not: beautiful, graceful, and brave. With the fate of her beloved friend in the balance, Agnieszka must find a way to save her from the Dragon's grasp.
