Spindle and Thorn

A weaver's son chosen to serve a dying sorceress discovers that the tapestry protecting his frost-locked valley demands a terrible price — every guardian must unravel their own life into its threads. Tomek Volek never expected to be selected for the briar tower, and he certainly never expected to learn that the role is a death sentence stretching back centuries. Now, with the living Winter clawing at the walls and time running out, Tomek must find a way to break the cycle before it claims him too.
