About the Author
A. B. Poranek grew up sharing her time between Ontario, Canada, and rural Poland, and eventually completed a veterinary degree at the Warsaw University of Life Sciences. A lover of mythology and history, she enjoys exploring both in her writing. Her debut novel, Where the Dark Stands Still, an instant New York Times bestseller, is an ode to Poland's folktales, while A Treachery of Swans transports readers to a world inspired by 17th-century France.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Dark, devastating, and gothic."--Kirkus Reviews "11/15/23"
"Fans of romantic Gothic fantasy mixed with Polish folklore will appreciate this novel."--School Library Journal "4/1/24"
"Interweaving harrowing scenes of demon hunting terror with quiet moments of domestic life simmering with romantic tension, Poranek employs lush prose to craft a Polish folklore and culture-influenced fantasy realm through which the debut author capably examines themes of trauma, repression, and the healing power of unconditional acceptance."--Publishers Weekly "11/27/2023"
