Slavic Inspired YA Fantasy

Slavic countries of Europe have their own mythologies, beliefs, and rituals that still appear in literature today through characters, names, practices, magic, and the brutally cold winters the region is known for. Slavs were historically spread across Europe in countries such as Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Czech Republic, and as far south as Croatia and Bulgaria, among other places. Today, Slavs can be found around the world but still with a high concentration in Central and Eastern Europe. Enjoy these YA books that share their roots with the Slavic people.
