Looking for a Christmas read? How about not just one, but three books? Penguin India has a fantastic suggestion — the complete Winternight Trilogy! Comprising The Bear and the Nightingale, The Girl in the Tower, and The Winter of the Witch, this trilogy unfolds the story of Vasilisa, also known as Vasya, whose mother passed away during childbirth. Penned by Katherine Arden, each book is an adult historical fantasy set in a mediaeval Russian village.

While we might be tempted to indulge in this trilogy for ourselves, Penguin India proposes that gifting this series will be like giving three gifts at the same time. So, any takers? Thanks in advance!
