Mia has three older brothers, three younger sisters and a lot of responsibilities. And two joys: the sea and an old book in the attic. She doesn’t know yet that the world is much bigger than she was told. That there are places where the sea is forbidden, because the sea is freedom, and people who dream of freedom are unwelcome to either the Empire or the most prosperous city in the world. That the book inherited is not at all simple, and the ability to write your own story is more important than the ability to read. Especially since this requires courage.
Miya is not sure that she wants to know the terrible secrets in which people dear to her are unexpectedly involved. She doubts whether it is worth continuing this path, on which there are more questions than answers. Too many oddities and coincidences. And complete uncertainty ahead. The story "Miya", which opens the cycle "Seven Spinner", is the first fantasy by Tamara Mikheeva, the author of many works for children and teenagers and the winner of several awards in children's literature.
In the new book, the writer’s skill is revealed from an unexpected side, and the tales acquire a special depth and parable-like quality.
