About this book

Uprooted follows Agnieszka, a young woman living in a quiet village that lies on the edge of a dark and corrupted forest known as the Wood. The Wood is a constant threat, spreading evil and twisting everything it touches. To protect the nearby villages, a powerful wizard known as the Dragon selects one girl every ten years to serve him in his tower. When Agnieszka is unexpectedly chosen, she struggles to adapt to the Dragon’s harsh training and discovers that her magic is wild, instinctive, and unlike anything he has seen before. As she begins to understand her powers, the danger from the Wood grows stronger, revealing a deeper and more ancient evil behind its corruption. Determined to protect her home and loved ones, Agnieszka must confront the forces within the forest and challenge both magical and political systems. The novel explores themes of courage, friendship, sacrifice, and the tension between nature and control, all within a richly woven, folklore-inspired fantasy world.
